alliance saber discusion thread

[JANGO FETT]

let's keep the order thread clean

[DARTH MAUL]

Actually Jango moved it to the Lightsaber section and stickied it. So no real need for bumping I guess :)

[Jedi Yar Nala]

If you think about... it can be done up REALLY Sithy like too :)

Sort of like the concept sabers from the Making of the Force Unleashed book.... Red crystal... Red LED.... Power, Evil, or Control, Hate in Aurebesh on the Bling strip :)

And yes... I'm referring to the Sith heads who don't like the Light side of the force  :P

[DARTH MAUL]

I'm an equal opportunity force user  :D

I plan on going with red switch for sure....debating on whether red crystal/led or purple instead.

I really do hope we get a good amount on the run of these. Come on people don't pass up on this wicked design!

[Vos Malek]

Why have not more people signed up for these?  This is going to be one awesome saber! 
BTW I'm definately going purple with mine.   ;D

[Onli-Won Kanomi]

Well I'm just guessing but with the recent news that Erv is soldering up another run of CF some other folks like me with limited saber budgets may be waiting to see if they can get any 'Toast' before committing to a run like this, even though it's a great design and we all admire Ace's work. I bet that once the CFv5 is released and sells out and folks know if/how many they got that there might be a sudden influx of orders on this run.  ;)

Oh, please don't wait for Erv's toast!  As much I love CFs (thank you E, for showing me what I've been missing) I urge people to not wait to sign up.  This is an interest thread so that we know how many people would want them in the first place.  It would be a shame to have to raise the estimated price, or worse, scrap the project all together just because no one wants to come to the party!

Perhaps an email notification to all the members would help?  As I recall, votes for the contest also trickled in slowly.

*patpats*

Perhaps the smiths here who are availing of it could mention it and promote it on their websites or something? That'll help get the word around.

[Jedi Yar Nala]

I concur... getting on this run is more certain than obtaining a CF in the CF lottery (even if there will be more available).

As we all know... getting one of Acerocket's work is a rarity, and to jump in on this, while you can...AND secure a spot...

Well... I'd encourage you to get it while it's here and available :)

[Fellstrike]

I know as a new collector I'm super excited for this run. Especially, since I know that I'll get a chance for a CF later. (I do need to at least find a US for this beauty though.)

[Scars Unseen]

I'm fortunate enough that I still have the CF I got in the last run.  Now I just need to get a power extender and a multi-die LED for clash flash

[Jedi Yar Nala]

Thanks Jango, for setting this sticky to keep the interest thread clean for the order list :)

As for those that are new here to the forum and are looking at getting a non-SW canon saber... and one that WILL be of astonishing quality... this would be one to jump on.

Look at Acerocket's gallery of work (K3GR1, Obi TPM... and the Pommels...the Yun....Killer Penny come to mind...), and you know the craftsmanship and execution on the design will be in a league of it's own.  ;D

PLUS... there are a bunch of places for customization... the crystal chassis, the AV switch color, your choice of color for the main LED, the Bling Strip, the powder coating, a different wrapping if you choose....

[Orakaa]

So... just to be sure I understand : this is opened to ANY forum member ?

I missed the K3GR1 (gosh !!!) because, until today, I thought it was ONLY for "official Fx-sabers sabersmiths" (such as Do-Clo, Gemini Concept, etc.)

[Jedi Yar Nala]

Yes...  to my knowledge... this is open to ANY Forum member (unlike the K3GR contest)... that being the case... here's your chance to get in on an Acerocket run!!!
