Title: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: richmbailey on April 17, 2014, 08:14:41 PM Received my new Bellicose in Fire Orange today. Wow. This is a very nice saber. It looks great and is easy to handle. I uploaded the Black Star sound fonts and it fits perfectly with this saber. I wish I would have gotten sound installed on my first two, it sounds amazing. Some quick pics below. Note, I replaced the blade retention screw with a flat thumb screw, makes it much easier to get the blade in and out.

Have a point of endearing jealousy. :(
Serisously though, congrats in the saber! Looks good in FO. :) Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: richmbailey on April 17, 2014, 08:23:05 PM Thanks! I will do very little modifications to this one. Not needed it's so great already. I may look at different pommels, but that's for another day. :)
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: srams on April 17, 2014, 08:57:21 PM Gorgeous! So beautiful. I love anything orange. Point!
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: Jedi Hartley on April 17, 2014, 09:35:01 PM Dude, I just got mine in violet amethyst! It's such an awesome hilt!!
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: Nathan170 on April 17, 2014, 11:16:04 PM That is fantasic! I really like the hilt and how it looks with Fire Orange. I might buy Bellicose in the future. :)
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: Zren Tobas on April 17, 2014, 11:39:39 PM Nice Bellicose dude. That Fire Orange actually looks pretty good. =]
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: sedstiskyfaller on April 18, 2014, 12:50:10 AM Further proof that the Bellicose looks good in any color.
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: richmbailey on April 18, 2014, 12:59:45 AM I had a Green Initiate and Blue Prophecy, so I gave it a shot. It looks outstanding with the lights off. Super bright.
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: Prowl 1701 on April 18, 2014, 02:14:18 AM Love the Bellicose, it's one of the hilts that looks good in any color IMO. Mine is in AB.
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: richmbailey on April 18, 2014, 03:13:13 AM Agreed.
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: Markus on April 18, 2014, 03:23:56 PM ^^ Fire Orange looks very nice with this saber.
Good choice on the Bellicose! Also, the custom plug looks cool. Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: richmbailey on April 18, 2014, 04:07:14 PM Thanks. I wasn't sure about the orange but went for it anyway. The custom plug was super easy to make. I ripped apart an old PC Fan and used the engine coil, it fit perfectly in the 1" plug tube. I used a little gorilla glue (which expands so be careful using it). Then used fine grain sand paper to smooth the edges so it didn't look gummed up. Then popped it in. I plan on making some more custom plugs for my other two sabers. :)
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: James Casey on April 18, 2014, 08:26:35 PM I'm definitely going to have to pick up a Fire Orange LED unit. The Bellicose looks great in any colour, and these are great photos.
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: KcinTnarg on April 20, 2014, 12:17:09 AM I was trying to make my mind up on which saber should I buy first, the Monarch or the Bellicose. After watching the review, you made my mind up for me I'm getting the Bellicose! ;D

Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: KcinTnarg on April 20, 2014, 08:04:58 PM Hands down, get the Bellicose! Yeah, once I get my check I'm going to buy it ASAP! The Bellicose is going to be my first saber! :) Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: richmbailey on April 20, 2014, 08:15:36 PM You will be totally satisfied. It looks even better in person.
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: Jedi Hartley on April 20, 2014, 08:53:46 PM Dude, it's sooooooooooo awesome!!!!!
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: KcinTnarg on April 21, 2014, 11:17:55 PM I just have a quick question here as I'm a noob to all of this, I'm getting the Bellicose (Guardian Blue) with flash on clash so should I get Silver flash or should I get another color? Which will look better?
Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: sedstiskyfaller on April 21, 2014, 11:27:02 PM I just have a quick question here as I'm a noob to all of this, I'm getting the Bellicose (Guardian Blue) with flash on clash so should I get Silver flash or should I get another color? Which will look better? I always prefer silver flash with a blue blade. Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: The 97th Acolyte on April 21, 2014, 11:35:04 PM I always prefer silver flash with a blue blade. I always prefer silver clash. With anything. Just looks better IMO. But I know some people prefer a contrasting colour to be FOC. Apparently GB with FOC Bane's Heart looks pretty awesome.

No problem, glad to help :) I first heard about US while at Saint Louis Comic Con and it sucked so much that I spent most of my money on other things before I came across the booth. Now that I have the extra money so I'm going to get a saber now! My Bellicose is in AB and has a silver FoC and it looks awesome! That's great to hear and I can't wait for mine now. :D Title: Re: Bellicose + Fire Orange Post by: richmbailey on April 23, 2014, 12:34:57 PM Quick video of my Bellicose with Starkiller sound font.
