So glad you got this one. It is an amazing replica. I bought mine months ago. UW is currently working on their Cal shoto blade which can be combined with this crossguard blade.
HOLD UP …….. did you just say they are working on shoto blade for this o_O because I’m showing my money at the screen and nothing is in my hands yet lol ( Also I will need 100% )
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzionlike I said… would you imagine Cal Kestis Crossguard Stance Lightsaber having to be Sold at Dok Ondar’s in Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge?😂🤣🪦💀
Sick Cal Kestis Crossguard and Jacket Sir!!! Damn wish I could grow a beard too rather than having to fake it for Cosplays lol. Looking to finally experience getting a Lightsaber first hand with such detail in the coming weeks. Never seen one first hand in my area I’m hyped.
Hey there! Great review! Just picked this up myself but it seems the Proffie board didn't come preinstalled with many options. Did you have to add in additional files/fonts? I really like the ones I heard in your demo. Would you be able to share those fonts/styles?
Yea the fonts from ultimate works is the basic default proffie package you can send me a email at : sirjamesiii65@gmail.com and I can send you my config I used ( when I get home later )
I just accidentally ordered a V2 version off of Ultimate Works. I thought I was going to be able to review the order before it was submitted lol, but given that it was on sale and had free shipping, I think I will just go ahead a keep the order. It looks absolutely gorgeous, although I ordered the Asteria version, but I wanted to do more research. I already have a proffie Sabertrio Krosguard, so an Asteria should be fine.
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzion Do you think the Proffie is a huge upgrade over the Asteria? I've had my Sabertrio Krosguard proffie for almost 2 years, and have yet to go in and customize anything on the computer. So for my purposes, do you think Asteria will be just fine?
It looks beautiful. I wished all saber makers needed to make blades threaded, like side blades. It would be super easy and not worried damaging the blades with tension screws.
I usually pass on cross guard hilts because I just don't like them much. When UW/TPS listed this one though, I really gave buying it some thought. I like the hinge style on it much more than ones other vendors are offering. Until you did this review, I didn't know the secondary blades didn't use retention screws either. Alas, I instead purchased instead a version of Yoda's hilt with proffie v3.9, since I hadn't picked up one in neo pixel. From CCsabers. Overall, Thanks for the review. It's given me food for thought.
I’m using proffie and the fonts used in this video is what I’ve added personally Proffie is the best however can be difficult to add fonts as there is a learning curve and required a program etc , however I know Asteria least since I last used it I know had gotten many upgrades and is easier to add fonts to without the need of additional software
It's too bad the pommel at the bottom can't be removed and screwed on in the middle. I known its supposed to represent the heavy varient and it is indeed an amazing saber, except it's a bit too long for my liking.
I do quite like the 89 sabers crossguard Cal Kestis, it's the perfect size for me and still retains the same great quality, look, feel, electronics, etc.
I'm wondering if the FO-1 v2 Pommel could be used instead. I don't know how the body of this hilt is put together to keep the chassis safe, if that sleeve can be removed or not (so only the emitter and chassis are connected). I have the UW/TPS hilts and parts they made to show from the first game and not all of the parts can be swapped.
@chalion8399 yeah not sure either but other than the length it's amazing. I'm sure you can do a custom pommel but that itself will take time and lots of money
@chalion8399 yeah and I checked UW website and they say the other handle will only work for the other Cals they have so won't work with this saber. Would've been awesome if there was another handle that could work with this and I prob wouldve gotten this saber and the extra handle but in this case I may just stick with the 89 sabers crossguard if I end up buying one
I still can't believe that Mark Hamill was upset that Cal gets two lightsabers 😂😂😂😂😂 Yeah the lightsaber version from survivor looks just similar to starkiller's saber from force unleashed 😮
My ultimate saber would be unique balanced Purple & Crimson , double bladed lightsaber/arcaic saberstaff w hand gaurd single hand grip , katana stlye blades(think visions ep.1 season2"sith " lola lightsaber but w purple not gold) curved towards & away to stay rightside up ,used w Form III soresu,Form V shien/djem so,Form VI Battle master niman(exar kun) Form VII Juyo/Vapaad w Jarkai & trachata , my name would be bibphashi Dark Jedi Lord Rellik(killer) Cheift Warlord of black legion zendar reborn
I actually dont like it 😂 the actual pommel should be shorter, the main hilt should have enough length for 2 hands but the shoto/pommel section should have enough space for one hand. The pommels hilt shouldn't be that long

I really like how the folded crossguard lights up without the main blade installed. I know it's not in universe authentic but it looks really nice.
Is it possible to detach the small pummel to make make it smaller or no?
nope
i love the way you review things. Thanks so much I will be saving up for this. It's amazing

Do you have a tutorial on how to add the audio file or more important, how you make it so that when you twist the hilt it lights up or down?

@ I’d only recommend proffie if you know how to use it and customize it
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzion Thank you! Great video btw. Did you ever get around to weathering your hilt? I would love to see how that came out.

That thing is much much nicer than I thought it would be. Very cool review!
Amazing work by UW as always! Great review too James, thanks! Really hope UW makes a quick connect coupler to go with this one :)
Could you review about short kestis lightsaber and connect with cross guard? I bought cross guard and I will buy short one too.
I’d highly recommend a review on the Third Sister UW saber. It’s a genius design.
It’s on my list of sabers wanting to review
I've been wondering if James has actual blade handling experience, a lot of his moves seem professional
Ordered the NSabers Ani3 proffie saber after watching one of your other vids, anxiously awaiting its arrival 😬
Nice
What vest is that?
Are the side blades durable? I would like to test blade in a duel 😁

Oh damn... That blade on white 🤩
HAHAHA the dogs in the back watching!
I'm looking forward to completing there training... in time they will call me.. MASTER
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzion I lost this battle with my dogs a long time ago. I guess they are the master now. Haha
Are the side blades programmable
Hi, great review. Did you add the kyberphonic fonts or was they pre installed?
The fonts I added
The sound is fantastic
I think it sounds better together
Awesome review. It’s a beast of a Saber.
I'm only nervous about the guards snapping off if struck by another lightsaber.
What kind of board do you have in yours because those two options Asteria and Proffie and I just want the best and I have problem choosing

Do proffies come with fonts already installed?
I…LOVED…IT!!
Please james do the unboxing the ultimate work kylo ren lightsaber
I’ll see what I can do

This hilt looks amazing
Lovely cross guard Cal Kertis lightsaber ❤
Speaking of cross guards, are you planning on getting the stellan gios legacy lightsaber?
It’s currently up in the air since there been new merch that released on May 4th of this year
To carry that thing around the park you should get carpenter jeans and carry it in the hammer loop.
My ultimate saber would be unique balanced Purple & Crimson , double bladed lightsaber/arcaic saberstaff w hand gaurd single hand grip , katana stlye blades(think visions ep.1 season2"sith " lola lightsaber but w purple not gold) curved towards & away to stay rightside up ,used w Form III soresu,Form V shien/djem so,Form VI Battle master niman(exar kun) Form VII Juyo/Vapaad w Jarkai & trachata , my name would be bibphashi Dark Jedi Lord Rellik(killer) Cheift Warlord of black legion zendar reborn
ultimateworks by far one of the best lightsabers
It's quite a long burrito lol... I love it though
This saber is a CHONKIBOI. Makes sense with the crossguard stance.
This is asteria v2.5 or proffie
Proffie as mentioned
I actually dont like it 😂 the actual pommel should be shorter, the main hilt should have enough length for 2 hands but the shoto/pommel section should have enough space for one hand. The pommels hilt shouldn't be that long
Badasses
i need one now lol
It’s my saber and I need it now :)
🆒🔥😎
I'd pobby not weather mine. I like a good, new, pristine look...
.
not a fan of these types of sabers but Cal’s saber is better-looking than kylo’s. I prefer a saber with a beskar crossguard hilt.
Would you imagine Cal Kestis Crossguard Legacy Lightsaber being sold in Galaxy’s Edge at Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities?😂😂🤣🪦💀
