Have you guys seen the latest video from Emory?? I just saw the Brood Guard and it looks like a nice saber.... I was wondering if any of you already bought the brood guard and if so...what do you think of it? For the people who works for US is there a chance you will "include" that to the Mystery box?

I have not seen the video but I saw the post on Facebook. Personally, it isn't for me.

I'll admit it grew a little on me watching that intro video but I can't see me getting one...yet. Maybe I will wait for some actual reviews. It is funny too note that this was released days before the raffle ended and just over 5 weeks until the movie. And I am doing fine. lol,

The saber was just released on the site today. Something tells me not too many people have ordered and gotten theirs yet.
I've exhausted my funds that were allocated for Ultrasabers already with this raffle and sale going on, so I will be waiting to get one until the next time I splurge. This is definitely high on my want list.
I want to couple it with an initiate v4 and have a double-bladed tonfa.

I just said the same thing after it was brought to my attention in the suggestion thread.

Posted this in the suggestion thread, if you look close at this new hilt, is it just me or is US giving us LED blade retention screws now?

I'm not impressed with them. Tonfa was never a great weapon to begin with, and when combined with lightsaber combat, it becomes even more obsolete. The large handle makes it a big target, and it only takes one bad block to turn the weapon into a paperweight (assuming real saber combat). Sure, if you're up against a knife or and unarmed opponent, this will certainly give you an advantage, but against another lightsaber, you'd be better served with one of your own.

Since everyone here has pretty much said no to the saber, I'll jump in just so that it doesn't look like it is was a terrible idea to release this hilt. I think it looks cool, and the LE version is possibly one of the prettiest sabers I have seen. I definitely want one.

I'll give it a few reviews before I make a final call on it. Be interesting to duel both with, and against

Indeed. I feel like if someone wanted to do a Jedi Finn, they could easily use one of these.

I want to see how it is assembled. The upper stage is almost certainly an Initiate V4 with the handle attached at the pommel point, and another extention beyond with the lower section. That makes this a three-part saber with some very interesting modification potential. For example, it has the activation switch in the handle. What if you modified the handle for a small cross-guard saber? Or just modded it slightly with some flat pommels (EH for example) and a blade? Might make a very sweet off-hand saber all its own...
So yeah. It maybe become VERY popular - but not just as a Brood Guard. :-)
