Alrighty guys, no go on the video review, I had too many 'uhms' and the quality was terrible, and what little you would make out was too dark to see anything... so here's some super cool pictures! C:   I'm very impressed with this hilt, I was surprised to find how much I like it after actually having one, as before, when I'd only seen pictures of the V3 initiates, Dominixes and Aeons, I wasn't fond of the necks however, I was glad to let the force guide me to this saber in the grab bag  And ha BenPass, I led you to impulse buy! :p |

Thanks for the pruning, Manroon... sorry about that.
Yeah, I know they aren't supposed to come with sound, but I thought I'd be thorough.
I'm not used to weapon hilts being slippery, someone on a WMA board recommended "rubber tape" apparently available at Lowe's, etc. I'll have to try that out.
It's also strange using something with a perfectly round handle, hee hee. I'm so used to real swords.

I recommend leather wraps or the addition of a box. I find boxes, despite some people's distaste for them, provide me with an excellent gripping point. |

Haha, sorry man, and thank you! I'm very surprised with how pleased I am with the V3 initate, and I'm sure you'll get something awesome! (Like there ISN'T an awesome lightsaber?) |

(Like there ISN'T an awesome lightsaber?) lol no worries  I'm sure there will be something amazing in the mail for me! I know it'll be in CG so it's got to be great! My first and only grab bag was a Dominix V3 so I'm really curious what I'll end up with. |

Very nice! My first was a CG Standard Battle Saber, I got that at the same time I bought my CG Aeon V2 :p

My First Grab Bag stories, ahh, the memories.... Mine was a GB SI V2. I specified the color, as I recall. Second was a Dominix V2, specified BR, followed by another SI V2, also specified in BR to be gifted out. Somewhere in the mix there was also an Archon V1 to be gifted. That one was the real surprise. lol I specified AB thinking that a new color would prevent a PVC hilt. Much to my and the recipient's happiness, I was proven wrong, and he got a nice piece of history. Something like the 3rd or 4th to last PVC too. |

I'll laugh if you get the Vader from the photo, now that you've got a Heiland under way. lol

If I do, and they honor the request for it to be CG, I will be binging off the walls. I know it's like a million to one for odds, but can you imagine a set of Vader/Heiland sabers in CG and EG? |

I think he's speaking of Nero's Dark Prophecy with the Lux 5 led. |

That was a reference to myself and the fact that Jacen's saber is normally a hilt similar to Vader's (with a green blade, of course). |
