Waiting on my Crimson Scorpion as well... First thing I'm gonna do is throw a silver Emporer's Hand Pommel on that biznitch, get rid of that goofy ball-pommel and shorten it up a bit.
Your saber, your choice, sir.

I know... I just don't like those ball-shaped pommels on any saber. They trigger me. Lol.

They’re just hidden grenades... nothing to worry about.

I do have a Scorpion, the crimson version and it is my favorite Ultrasaber of all (check signature to see what others I have). It is very large but not really unwieldy. The whole overall design fits together well and the shape of the emitter and placement of the blade retention screws makes it one of the best to swap the setscrews for thumb screws without messing up the look.
I noticed yours has the doorbell switch? Is that normal?
Mine doesn't have that...

I got the switch block from TCSS. I like the feel of them better in most cases. The short one on the back has an accent light covering the hold from a defective recharge port.

The Scorpion is on my wish list as well! It's definitely a two-hand saber even for a bigger guy like me. Definitely not "cartoonish"!
I have a Reaper that borders on the "cartoonish" but with the claws on each end, if one gets accustomed to spinning it, it looks really cool.. so your choice is kind of what you make of it

Interesting. I prefer my Scorpion single handed with the main grip at the silver area behind the windows. I plan to get a pair without claws to replace my Aeon V4s as my primary deal wield duelers.
I always found my Reaper awkward unless I removed the collar. The particular widths and tapers are odd.
