Nice pulls. Even though the Initiate LE V5 may be out of stock, you might still be able to get the LE pommel by itself.
Having gold struts on the pommel should really set off the gold claws
Then you could take that solid silver pommel, put strips of Electrical tape in the spaces between the struts and use that on your MB Dark Initiate LE v4.
Just some thoughts
-
Yes I do plan on that but they sell the Aeon LE pommel not the Initiate LE but they look the same or similar to me. Good idea on the MB. Thanks! |

Those pommels are the exact same, actually, so you should be in business. If you notice, none of their pommels are 'Initiate' or 'Apprentice', they're all Aeons, Dominix or Sentinels for the V3/4/5s. That's the beauty of MHS - |

So my final of the 3 Raffle Entry orders showed up today. I ordered the Initiate LE V5 & a Mystery Box. I was contacted that the Initiate LE V5 hilt was out of stock so I asked for the Initiate V5 instead well I got both of them sort of lol. Plus I got a Initiate LE V4 as my MB. I really like the feel of that hilt.
Nice! I would have bought the Dark Initiate LE V5 if the colors had been exact opposite. I love silver with black accents, but they don't make that so i went with the Initiate LE V5 to get silver with gold accents. I was never notified that the Obsidian Lite or the Initiate LE hilt being out of stock though. I'm hoping if they are, they are back in stock soon! |

Here’s what I’m waiting for:
Product Total
The Graflex CE × 1
SKU:
D-SOUND-STUNT-GraflexCE
[Choose Your Configuration: Diamond Controller]
[Diamond Controller LED Type: RGBW LED [Recommended]]
[Choose the color of your blade!: Guardian Blue for Diamond]
[Diamond Flash on Clash: Flash Sentinel Yellow for Diamond]
[Diamond Pulse Mode: Diamond Pulse Off]
[Battery Configuration: Li-Ion Setup (Batteries & XTAR VC2 Plus Charger Included)]
[Recharge Port: Recharge Port + 1.2A Fast Charger]
[Blade Length: 32" Length]
[Blade Option: UltraEdge Midgrade]
[Diamond Sound: Diamond Sound]
[Switch Type: Blue Illuminated Silver AV Switch]
[Front Button Color: Red]
[Rear Button Color: Gold]
[Blade Set Screw Type: Socket]
[Choose Blade Tip Type: POINTED TIP]
[Blade Retention Screw Wrench: No Thanks]

Is there anything in this setup that would make it take 10 weeks?(tomorrow). Heck, I’d change the button colors if that would help:). I just hope the grab bag that was supposed to come with it helps to make up for the wait... I wonder what the record for waiting is? I certainly don’t want that.

Possibly the Graflex hilt? I really think US needs to stop accepting orders. When the May 4th sale ends I really hope there isn’t another sale, they’ve been back to back for as long as I can remember. It’s nice to have good deals but it really isn’t a good business model to set when they keep taking money but aren’t sending out product. Especially with the reduced customer service.

I think hilts are the main thing that decides wait time. I only ordered 2 empty hilts and 3 basic blades on 4/10. Still no word.

Both my processing orders are stunts and because I just had an April order ship out exactly at 3 weeks, I was hoping they were more caught up.
But alas, that was a Premium sound saber, so if the pattern is indicating Stunts are still backed up, I'd better strap myself in for a bit of a longer wait than expected.
Was hopping to get both orders by June, but I need to back off that expectation.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to stop obsessing over a saber order you're really excited about?
We're in a bit of a Star Wars drought until Mando Season 2 in October.

I just recently got my first couple Sabers (just Monday in fact), but what I did to pass the time when I needed a lightsaber fix, was to play Blade and Sorcery with the The Other guys. Gives you some very interactive lightsabers to play with. You can swap out crystals for different colors, Anakin's/Darth Vader's lightsabers can change blade length like in the lore, and you can also have some fun with blasters too! |

The Jedi have their place in the galaxy, and should not be lost. The Sith... They have theirs; some are needed, most are misguided, and then there are those that must be silenced... Both are needed for balance.

Per Rule #3 - No mentions of competitors. I've changed it to "The Other guys", please avoid doing so in the future  Good stuff though |

So I contacted US and I paid the $5 Upgrade to get the Aeon LE V5 pommel (Gold) to match my Initiate instead of the V5. Laura @ US has been super helpful for my multiple orders. |

Has anyone actually received non-auto response emails in a decent amount of time or had them actually answer the phone if you call???

Nope. I emailed Marlena and the general info account Tuesday about my order of blades, batteries, and a pommel (no sabers) and immediately received an auto-response. I place the order on May 1 and I figured it would be a simple order with a quick ship, but 2 weeks later I'm still waiting.

Woohoo.
Finally getting 3 lightsabers (1 v5 initiate stunt + 2 MBs) tomorrow.
We ordered on the 17th of April and got the shipping confirmation on the 13th of May.
What's interesting is that our first order (v4 initiate LE + sound lite) is still processing and that was ordered on the 30th of March. Almost 8weeks!
Maybe a shortage of obsidian lite sound?
Good luck everyone with getting theirs. Gotta be patient for sure...

Yes they did. Im not sure if they still have a shortage on Obsidian Lite. I had 2 orders where I was contacted about that so I upgraded to Obsidian V4 |
