I'm a Star Wars fan for almost my entire life, but I've only recently really started looking at sabers in general. Started lurking in the forums a few weeks ago and finally took the plunge with a grab bag saber. Left it up to fate and got rewarded with a Dark Apprentice LE4 in Fire Orange. Very happy with it and looking forward to being part of the community.

Welcome to the forum.  Smiley

Many of us start off with grab bags.  It sounds like you really scored with an LE hilt.  Does it have windows?

Welcome. While I didn't start out with a grab bag saber, my first was also a Dark Apprentice LE v4 in Fire Orange. Totally gorgeous, simplistic hilt. Glad you're happy with it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. The only thing we ask is that you first use the Search Function (picture with magnifying glass) to make sure that they question has not already been asked and answered. If you cannot find the answers you are looking for, go ahead and ask. Someone will quickly come along and supply you with the answers you seek.

Again, welcome.

Was already using the search function a lot on the forum for answers before I decided to go in for a purchase.  Smiley  Been using it this week already to see what everyone has done to customize their hilts.

The Dark Apprentice has the windows, they look amazing with the orange color. I tried not to have too many expectations or hopes for specific features, seeing as I was leaving everything to chance with the grab bag. My only regret is that I didn't request a covertech on it. Looking into putting a D ring clip on the pommel instead. But I'm really happy with what I got, especially since it's one of the smaller possibilities. (I'm short, so it's a factor).

Hello Ryumia and Welcome to the Saber Forum family, from Northeast Pennsylvania.

I took the plunge with my first order, two Ravens with Emerald driver and V-4 sound. I also got my Dark Apprentice LE4, fire orange as a grab bag saber to put my order too the limit for a free Initiate Saber. It's a great Saber and know  you'Lloyd enjoy it.
