Welcome!

The Venom is a mean piece of Sith machinery alright! I figure we will be seeing a lot of posts from you in the "Wait Begins" thread. ;) :P :side:
Imagine what you will know tomorrow....

I was advised to write here after already posting a lengthy message under the Venom thread, so I'm just going to copy/paste it. I'll appreciate any comments or greetings i can get. Glad to be a part of your community.

I've always loved the Star Wars movies but consider myself a casual fan since I've never watched/read anything outside the 6 films. I recently got it in my head to get a lightsaber but found that the mass-produced replicas appear to have awkward hilts, at least for dueling/spinning, not to mention their in-blade LEDs aren't meant for even medium striking. Then, I came across a Saber Forge review and became obsessed.
I've seen virtually all of the quality vids on Saber Forge sabers now, I believe, and have decided to get a weathered Venom Hero. Some might say it's a bit much for a first-time buyer, but that thing is crazy awesome looking and I'm known for diving into things head first.
The main reason for my post is to see what ppl think about getting the brown leather wrap on a weathered Venom. All I've seen so far are reg ones with black or brown wraps and weathered with the black. I think dark brown wraps on the weathered one would contrast nicely while still keeping that sinister look.
Let me know what you think, anyone. Also, comments on getting 3-4 staff extensions (weathered, of course) for it eventually would be appreciated. I'll DEFINITELY be purchasing some variation of the Venom in Feb. (tax returns!). Dreading the 14-16 week wait, though.

Welcome to the forum Combsey! I think a dark brown wrap would be a nice change of pace and would look great on a weathered Venom. My .02

Hey all. I've been in the saber hobby for a long time since also the first MR sabers, an Anakin 05 ROTS being my first ever lightsaber and still have it to this day. I have some Ultras as well and will be ordering my first ever Saber Forge finally this week. I'm in Ohio. I also have my own Jedi costume I got a few weeks ago too so I will be posting my saber with that on as well. Sorry for the late introduction though. Better late than never though right. I was always interested in the Epoch saber but didn't really like that raised shroud design on the old one so waited until the saber was re-designed more smoother and I'm glad I did. I will be getting other sabers in the future as well when I can. I've loved Star Wars ever since the 90's, I was born in the 80's so yeah. I also play guitar on my free time, not great at it though but I try. I'm into other things too other than Star Wars, sabers, and costuming, but that's my main hobby though. Can't wait to get my first Saber Forge saber finally =]
Own: Epoch medium blue
wishlist: Exhalted DB, Gladius cyan, Justicar MG, Sinister Prophecy BO, Fury red, Rebel MB, Reliant DB, Redeemer DB

Welcome friend! But then you have already kind of immersed yourself in the discussion, so you already know how great it is around here. ;)

Hi,

Just want to drop in and say hi to you all. I just brought my first saber from saberforge and waiting patiently for it. I can't wait to finally get a lightsaber. Been saving up for a bit as this hobby is not cheap!

Oh I brought the champion edition prodigal son

It nice to meet you all. :)

Not to cross sci-fi universes, but in that Prodigal Son...you have chosen wisely! I have always loved that design.

Welcome, and congrats on that upcoming saber!
