Wow Lady Agana a Archon in a $75 Mystery Box is awesome!

I don't find the aesthetic of the thin neck on the 3.1 to be appealing at all. Personally the 3.1 was on the bottom of the list of sabers I would want to own. I absolutely love the feel of the 2.1 and enjoy the lines of the emitter

While I find the thinner neck to be worrisome for its seeming fragility, hence the appeal of the 2.1

Completely understandable TJ^^  Admittedly, I like the aesthetic of the thin neck but certainly agree with your concerns  

Point of fact: if I'm doing any heavy dueling I've found my graflex (and more recent acquisition: sentinel) is a great saber to use.  
But the 3.1 sure looks purdy  

I bought the 3.1 in CG but have ordered the 2.1 emitter and a Tri AB led for it also

Nice Tx^^  The best of both worlds  

So I am customizing my 75 dollar mystery box.  My reaper is now an ancient bone reaper.  It's coming out nicely despite all the headaches I had

That's why I enjoy the forums: disparate perspectives 

Lol LAK and it's that very same reason that the 3.1 is a favorite  . However I completely agree that the hilt makes for a comfortable saber^^

I have a forum thread about my conversion in the custom section if you want to know more

Looking really good there

[Vivectius]

Congratulations LAK!  Those are two fine blades 
Respectfully, I like the looks of the 3.1 (especially with activation box mod), although and admittedly I would not use it for heavy dueling 
Regardless, both are great looking sabers^^

It's a 2.1. I have a 3.1 and I've used it for moderate dueling. I need to get a 2.1 emitter as I'm not a fan of the 3.1. Durability isn't the issue for me though, I cannot find a comfortable grip on it.

Definitely two very nice sabers though Agana. I just ordered my first V4 Initiate with my last order. It's definitely a nice one handed hilt.

I sold my 2.1 after I got my 3.1, i just prefer the thin neck look more.  Both are good sabers though.

Agana scored some nice sabers. Archon V2.1 for the win though Almost like mine but I got the classic pommel for my saber =]

[VonAndrashi]

Got a $75 mystery box and scored a dark sentinel LE v4 stunt in green with black non illumination AV switch and AAA battery set up.
Happy with the saber, handles nicely.
Already have a gree standard saber so had hoped for a different colour but happy none the less. Could make a staff with those two.
All in all I am pleasedconsidering but will get one of my choosing next.
Happy sobering everyone

Congrats on your Dark Sentinel LEv4, Sentinels are wonderful sabers!

What color were you hoping for? Perhaps red? 

You will eventually have multiple sabers of the same color if you keep with the collecting so think of it as... a step in the right direction. If you are really unhappy with having 2 green sabers try a color filter to tint or change it. US sells them as well as other non saber sites. I have heard Lee Filters has some sort of swatch book that is nice.

There are several threads discussing this if you do a search. Here is a link to a helpful one that displays examples of the colors:

I got the 75$ mystery box, and I'm now the happy possessor of a dark sentinel Lev4 stunt in silver. I love it.
 The funny thing is that when I ordered my first lightsaber ( an initiate V4 with sound ), I couldn't decide between green and silver. My computer kinda messed everything up and I got a green one, even thought I finally chosed silver... ( but it was fine anyway, I really wanted both ). I think I'm gonna call this one "destiny".
Here it is ( before and after I customized it )

It's the will of the Force that you were given both Green and Silver 

Both the Sentinel and Initiate are fantastic sabers to work with, understated but comfortable.

Beautiful Mod, any closeup pics so we can see more of the details?

Nice work on making it more your own saber there, Neelia

Beautiful mods Neelia!  Love the custom work you've done, especially the details around the emitter and pommel

I was at Dragon con and watched a lot of mystery boxes get unpacked. I saw dominix's, Aeons, initiates, flamberge, Apprentice's, Standards, Sentinals, Mantis, Archons, and Arbiters all come out of 75$ mystery boxes. I think it is a truly wonderful thing that US is doing. You truly could get almost any saber hilt for 75$. I lucked out and got a hilt i did not have, an archon 2.1. Thank you again US.
