Title: Dark Initiate V4 Raffle Win Review Post by: scifidude79 on November 25, 2018, 01:10:55 PM Dark Initiate V4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEyS3cpG8so So, what's up everyone? I'm posting a review of my Dark Initiate V4 in Arctic Blue with windows and Li-Ion batteries that I snagged as my 3rs place raffle win. Not much to say beyond what's in the above video. This is an awesome saber, not my first Initiate, but my first Dark Initiate. I just want to say thanks again to Ultrasabers, to Emory, for doing all of these great promotions and giveaways. To get a saber like this totally free, and to save on my entry, and free shipping, that's a whole lot of savings and free stuff. You guys are awesome. ;D Total cost of this saber as configured: $108. :) And, now some photos. I find that people like both the photos and videos, so why not do both? They're clicky.

Love it. Love it. Love it. :D And, I'll say that I have plans for this saber. Oh yes, plans indeed. They involve a sound board and a Dark Catalyst pommel. I have yet to decide if it has a date with some sandpaper. But, I may leave this one all black. it looks sleek. I'll probably leave it that way, unless I really get in the mood for sanding. But, all black with a black guarded switch is sounding like a really sweet setup to me. :) Title: Re: Dark Initiate V4 Raffle Win Review Post by: Infinit01 on November 25, 2018, 03:29:02 PM Nice review there, SFD. As previously mentioned, the V4 Initiate line has always been a top favorite of mine

Title: Re: Dark Initiate V4 Raffle Win Review Post by: hazard502 on November 26, 2018, 01:19:29 AM Dude, the opening to your review was both awesome and hilarious I laughed out loud. I just really enjoy and appreciate the content you bring to us in pics, writing and in videos it's informative and helpful. I'll echo you and everyone else, this is a beautiful lightsaber. The blue blade really shows off nicely here and the combo is just premium. Congrats on a cool prize.

Title: Re: Dark Initiate V4 Raffle Win Review Post by: scifidude79 on November 26, 2018, 01:24:45 PM Yes, love the Atari console behind you Technically, it's a Retron 77 by Hyperkin. But, yes, it plays Atari 2600 games. I got that console in the mail the same day as the Dark Initiate. :) Title: Re: Dark Initiate V4 Raffle Win Review Post by: Infinit01 on November 26, 2018, 01:37:39 PM Technically, it's a Retron 77 by Hyperkin.

I would say I didn't know what to open first, but you know that saber was laid out next to me, unwrapped, when I opened the box with the Retron 77 in it. ;) Title: Re: Dark Initiate V4 Raffle Win Review Post by: Infinit01 on November 26, 2018, 06:29:35 PM Yeah, it was a good day.
