That's the allure for me for grab bags is use ordering something and not knowing what it is coming. I could order a saber our those types but then I know what's coming. Does that make sense?

Sure, it's like buying yourself a surprise.  It's a fun experience.  I've gotten four sabers in grab bags, it's always fun.  Cheesy

Those are some handsome looking sabers, TJ.  I wanted to ask (sorry if this has been answered elsewhere): do any grabbag sabers come w/ FoC?  Just curious  Wink

No.  FoC requires sound, and grab bags are stunts.

Yeah, it's a function of the sound boards that makes the flash on clash happen, and stunts have no board.  They're just a straight battery pack, switch, resistor and LED.

And of course wires too. Although, there have been grab bags with sound but those were accidental.

Ah, good to know (I should've guessed that; I imagine if US was practically giving away sabers w/ even v3 obsidian then people would be swarming w/ grab bag orders).  Thank you, both.

I threw in a grab bag on top of the order I placed last night.

I like the idea that I might get something I might not have considered but end up really liking, whether its the hilt or even the blade color

Plus who can't use an extra?? Never know when a friend wants to come over and play Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy
