So there is. I thought that looked odd...
Not sure if julmax can beat me to the picture I'm planning once my Menace arrives, though - 14 hilts showing all the 8 regular and 6 forum colours. I've been trying to work out how to stage it, because it's going to take a lot of space.
I've tried it, but couldn't get the color correction to come out right for all the different blade collars when lined up together. But give it a go... I'm no photography expert and you may have better luck than I did. An FYI however, with what little experience that I do have, I think you would probably end up needing to do individually corrected shots for each color and combined them in post production.  |

You mean like this...  Sorry, couldn't help myself...  And I can't wait to see all the prize and entry sabers...  Oh! Wait a minute, this should cover most of the entries...   ........ *puts his eyes back into his head* OMG I wish I had the space and the money for that  Especially when I look at the costs for a Menace Staff....*dreaming* |

Thanks, but the collection didn't cost me as much as one may think. I mean yeah, it is definitely an expensive hobby. But two of my emeralds and one stunt were raffle prizes and three of the initiates are free-bees. There's also my reward points which collectively account for one of my other high-end sabers.

That just makes it an even more epic collection - luck, timing and US' generosity all playing their part  |

I am the same way ( and coming your way fast Julmax beware! ) I am up to 19 sabers, one was a free initiate, one a raffle of their choice ( another initiate but with sound and a recharge port) 2 were grand prize raffle wins and one was with my reward points. All total I have spent about 2,000 and have won about another 1,000 worth of sabers! it may be a bit expensive but I am hooked and the way US treats the customers to rewards like this I will be buying for a long time!  |

Looking forward to that pic James... the Ultrasabers rainbow If you get it right, it'll be the money shot... |

Posted in the grab bag thread, crossposting here as well, because US is a great company and they give away quality, free product in their raffles. Firstly, my Entry sabers plus the Grab Bag I won:  Right to left Initiate V2 in Violet Amethyst, Initiate V2 in Adegan Silver, Dark Initiate V2 in Guardian Blue, Dark Initiate LE V4 in Hot Pink with Emerald and Recharge port, Sentinel V4 in Blazing Red, and my grab bag win, which appears to be a Dark Standard Issue with Vertical Grooves in Consular Green. Closeup of the Win:  |
