So, I bit the bullet and recently purchased my first sabers. I was debating SF or US and decided on US as the prices were cheaper and the sale was a big plus. I ordered two Menace SE's (I originally thought I ordered them with sound but it turns out I cocked up, GG brain) and ordered them with ALL the accessories, I also bought a quick release coupler for it and I will review them later. I also ordered two grab bags, one with the offer and one with specifically Green LED's and a high end blade, It was a fair amount including shipping but dear Talos it was worth it! The Menaces are absolutely stellar, with the Quick release coupler there was no need to shim the trims to make it look like the movie version as the coupler allows spinning of the hilt with it, meaning it stays in place fairly easily. The LED's are bright as hell and look gorgeous! The two grab ba sabers were fantastic as well, my green LED saber was a Dark Apprentice and the random grab bag was a blue battle ready saber. They're all fantastic and durable after several bouts of hard duelling. (I even mildly destroyed a SF Obi-Wan hilt with it by accident, my hilt wasn't even affected) The only qualm I had is that the plugs are USA style and not UK style, so I had to buy adapters for them. But it was worth it! Money well spent!
Just to reiterate what Zren Tobas said, you shouldn't mention other saber companies. If extremely necessary, just say "the other guys" as a general statement, but refrain from it if possible.
Apart from that, congrats on your order! You're lucky to get a dark apprentice and standard issue saber as grab bags, both are really comfortable (and I wish I had a standard issue myself, you're lucky to get a random one!). The Menaces are great, I recently got 2 of them too for a Menace SE staff XD Looking forward to see how they handle with a quick release couples, I got mine with the adjustable coupler. What blade lengths did you get for it?
Oh, and what do yo mean by "the plugs are USA style and not UK style"? You mean the blade plugs? They should be for standard 1" ID sockets
