Bought my 17 year old son a $75 mystery box saber here at Salt Lake Comic Con. He had to leave early and head back to the hotel room because all the noise and crowds had worn him out (he has Central Auditory Processing Disorder), so kind of similar to autism but without being autistic. It was awesome watching him open it up in the hotel room where none of us knew what it would be and lo and behold it was a SENTINEL with a windowed emitter, V3 Obsidian Premium Sound, midgrade ultraedge blade, silver non-illuminated AV switch, blade retention screw wrench, regular vented pommel with a Blazing Red LED. That's a $231 saber for $75! Heckuva deal! Got to tell Emory thank you in person and wished him well on their journey back to Texas.

Sorry to hear that he had to leave early, but I fully understand

That right there is actually an Apprentice LE V4. The Sentinel is a bit longer of a hilt. Still a great pull!

Yep they came with my order for a Sentinel. I actually like the Apprentice much better. How do I tell the difference between Tri arctic blue and Tri guardian blue?

Two more $75 sabers arrived today. A CG Apprentice with windows and AV, and a BR Apprentice LE with windows and AV. That brings me to 4 Apprentices from Mystery boxes now, one with sound from a $200 box and three stunts from $75 boxes. Add that to the two Dark Apprentice LEs I bought specifically for a staff for someone, and my own personal Apprentice LE and you have one hell of a collection of fine hilts I've been building up these Mystery Box hilts for presents and now: I do have to say though, the LE in either Dark or Light has a much nicer grip. I don't like the "standard" version as much as the LE. Just in case no one has ever noticed the difference or doesn't have both to compare You can see the standard version ridges are rounded, and then the machining to take back the anodizing for the LE version gives them a flat grip area instead. Isola's top tip: Pay the extra couple buck to get the LE. They look better and feel better!

Isola's top tip: Pay the extra couple buck to get the LE. They look better and feel better! Stop it! You're making me want to buy a $75 Mystery Box in hopes that I'll get an Apprentice, when I know the logical course would be to just buy one. (knowing my luck, I'd get another Sentinel or Aeon in the box and wish I'd just bought the Apprentice)

Ha! Nicely played, that sounds like something I'd say. I'm probably just going to order an empty Apprentice LE one of these days, so that I know I'm getting what I want. It's just the sheer number I've seen pulled from Mystery Boxes gets me thinking.
