I received my mystery boxes today!

First pull was a Dark Apprentice V4, black AV switch.  Consular green!
 
Second was a Dark Liberator V3, black AV switch.  Adegan silver!

Slightly disappointed that neither had sound...so I put in another order for two more mystery boxes  Roll Eyes

On a side note...I ordered two circle blade plugs for these, and neither seem to fit in the hilt all the way...I was under the impression that they would be flush with the end.  Am I just dumb and doing it wrong?

nope, the V3's don't hold the blade plug flush. but you're new so it's news to you.
it should fit in the apprentice just fine.

There are 2 ways around this.

1) tighten the blade screw into the plug while you hold it flush with the emitter. Yes the MLS might rattle a bit.

2) buy a length of HG blade stock, and pop out the metal in you plugs, to make custom length plugs.

right, just the SI and prophecy models are tricky with a slanted emitter. so would be a real custom plug.

Easier to cut the blade plug to size than pop it out... popping it out doesn't work well. Even better yet, design your own!

His current issue is the plug being too long, easier to cut the plug. Yeah, if you need longer you are gonna have to do a bit more work. This is why I just use epoxy...

Odd. My usual difficulty comes in them being too short. The only time I've ever had "too long" was on dad's DSI.

$75 box. I have it set to pulse orange to yellow ever half second, gives it a kind of unstable look. The app doesn't seem to detect the obsidian board though, any ideas on that? There's only one font so I think its a v3 board, does that need a different program?

Looking at all these makes me even more anxious. Nice pulls. I ordered on new years eve for the first set of 2 boxes and it still says processing. I'm just hoping for for a surprise package at my door now Smiley

Very nice, congrats!

I got my christmas order yesterday, two Menace SE with premium sound and due to the high price two bonus sabers! (thanks Ultrasabers for this christmas special!)

First random saber was the initiate. Turned out to be a Dark Apprentice V4, stunt saber, consular green colour. In fact my girlfriend liked this one the most, i ordered several blades to go with so i can exchange the 24"blade for a longer one.

The second random one was the mystery box saber, and it turned out to be an Aeon V4, stunt saber too, guardian blue colour. I was surprised by how long the whole saber was after i attached a 36" blade, but this might just be because i ordered my Menace sabers with 32" so they look a lot shorter in comparision.
