The Force will be with you. Always.


« on: November 13, 2018, 02:32:52 AM »

Just wanted to drop in and say hi!

I got my first saber last week, and because I didn't have any preference I decided to go ahead and get a $75 mystery box. I got super lucky and got an Aeon V3, Green, with premium sound. I'm kicking myself that I didn't do an unboxing video haha, but I saw the slip of paper on the packaging and got too excited.

I have the feeling this is going to be the start of something of an addiction. Planning to get a couple of stunt saber hilts and do some builds and customization. Have a bit of experience with engraving and weathering metals, so hopefully will have some good stuff to show off in the next few months!

Really hyped to find such a large SW community.  Grin

Welcome to the forum and your new addiction. Some try to fight it. Some try to deny it. But the truth is, not only will it take over, not only will you find yourself wanting more and more sabers, you will start to hear the cheers. It'll start as a slight droning and eventually grow into a crescendo! Must have sabers..must HAVE  sabers.....must have SABERS!! We will not restrain you,  no, we will encourage you, we'll demand that you feed the BEAST.  In the end, you will be one of us.  So, take pics and post them....we will be waiting.

Hello and welcome jldavi!

Congrats on your saber! Aeon V3 is a very good hilt to learn with. You can fight well and spin it with ease. You were lucky to get sound (and Premium even).
I look forward to seeing what you do to customize your sabers.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the Aeon V3 with premium sound. The Aeon is a formidable saber and a great choice for Jedi and Sith (Dominix) alike.  Just like Crue has mention, it's comfortable to wield in a duel and for spinning. May your saber server you well

Hello and welcome.
Congrats on the Aeon w/ premium sound. A great all around saber. Please post some pics of your excellent prize and anytime you feed your saber habit.
I started my customization days with some grab bag stunts, they allowed me to experiment without messing up a $300+ hilt. Oh yeah, we love customization pics as well.

Once again, welcome and enjoy.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! Definitely excited to be here.

I placed an order for a couple more mystery boxes as a raffle entry, since only have one saber and want to grow my collection out a little bit and see what I like/dislike before I commit to some of the more expensive sabers. Super excited to get my mystery boxes, and will take photos and maybe even an unboxing video (assuming I don't get over-eager again and just tear the box open haha).   Wink
