How did it come wrapped?? Was it preassembled or in the standard brown paper wrapping?
I actually made a post about this elsewhere. I received it preassembled, no brown paper. Very disappointing but ay what you gonna do. I was going to order 3 mystery boxes to enter the giveaway but I’m not sure i want to now. Think I may just order a sound saber of my choice to enter and wait for the mystery boxes to hopefully normalize. |

I'm pretty stoked with what I received. I was hoping for at least one in silver, and both were different light side hilts. They filled all my check boxes.    Upgrades on both hilts, worth just shy of $50 over what I paid and got free shipping. Ordered 12/28 and in hand on 1/24 |

From what I’ve seen so far it doesn’t seem like anyone is getting hilts with guarded switches, all silver or black non illuminated, almost like they ran out of the standard ones 😂

Placed my order for 2 75$ mystery boxes on Dec 27 and it arrived on Jan 23. Was disappointed to not have the brown paper wrapping on the hills but with US getting slammed I can understand and appreciate that they are doing everything they can to get those orders filled as quickly as possible. I received a Dominix v4 green blade and a dark initiate v4 with windows in blue. Overall pleased with the quality of these sabers. I do think that my next round will include heavy blades tho

Even if they didn't run out, the AV switch seems to be t a quick way to guarantee the $75 value. Even a V2 initiate (normally $55) would value at $80 with an AV switch (+$15) and a full sized blade (+$10). I'd be ok with that if I ever get a MB - |

This is why it is the most common included upgrade. And quite likely why the price points were set as they are. |

My Order is on it´s way since the 18th...now it is stuck at customs Sh*t...however, I never saw orders staying there for too long. Not more than a few days, so be patient, your sabers will get to you soon  |

So I opened my mystery box. Here is a link to the unboxing ... https://youtu.be/kvshoMIkwOoIt was a dark apprentice v4. Solid first saber and good weight. I don’t have much to compare to, but seems really bright. I like it and will order again. Love the black on green. |

This is the 4th Dark App v4 i have seen unboxed in the last week. One was my brother MB. This one has me a little confused. It must of come with eh Tri Green? Other wise it's not a $75 saber... But i do love the green on black, my brother got the same. His had a Black AV switch and Windows as his upgrades. You have to have something else beside the windows to make it a MB. otherwise they screwed up. But i'm worried the more i watch they are just pulling some GB sabers to fill in the MB shipments. |

Could be the blade. Standard blade on an apprentice is 24” and the mb ships with 36”, a $10 upgrade. Add the $5 windows and it’s over $75. Well worth it to get my feet wet before plunging on a full saber. |
