As the title says, I received a Dominix for my grab bag saber. A Dominix V3 specifically! This is my first grab bag saber, and I bought it with the reward points that I received for reviewing my Arbiter. On a side note, does anyone realize how lucky that Arbiter has been? It was my ticket to the raffle and won me my Dark Prophecy V3, and now the review of it got me a Dominix V3! Okay, so on to the review of the Dominix V3. The color of the blade was set to random, and I received Guardian Blue! Now, for those who have seen my custom build, you know how much I was surprised with and love the Guardian Blue color. Normally I'm a green guy, but the Guardian Blue is just so incredible. Bright, as expected from US, and just plain cool! The blade is a standard midgrade which I ordered. MGs are my go to blades for the weight and brightness. Silly me didn't think to ask for the 40 inch blade, but hey, that'll just be my next order right? I knew what the hilt would feel like when I saw what it was due to the fact that my brother has a Dominix V3 as well. It is a VERY well balanced hilt, and the choke points feel so natural. I didn't know (for sure) what the standard setup batteries would be (though I suspected AAAs). It is four AAAs, but I picked up some rechargeables today so that's great. I'll write some more later, but I just wanted to show you all and let you know that I love this new saber!!!! Here's some pics:     |

The Jedi are simple minded fools who try to avoid there feeling when feelings are the path of true power. The Sith on the other hand are just as foolish in only using anger to fuel there power. To unlock true power one must utilize all of one's emotions.

Solid grab bag for sure! Wonder if this means they are out or almost out of red and blue sabers. If so, I'll be ordering a grab bag soon with my reward points!

Looks great. Let the customizing, begin. Exactly...I've been trying to decide what sections to sand lol. Very nice Grab bag, a V3; that's a win. Oh yeah, I wasn't expecting that at all! Really glad  That blade almost looks photoshopped.
lol, that was just an unsteady hand. The blue shone through nicely though eh? Solid grab bag for sure! Wonder if this means they are out or almost out of red and blue sabers. If so, I'll be ordering a grab bag soon with my reward points!
I'm wondering TBH...could this be a sign of more to come? Thanks for the comments all! |

Nice. So US is now giving out V3's for Grab Bags? Makes me want to go for one.  I will wait until I get the Bane and rewards points though. Since its 300 points worth, do you have to use say like a debit card or whatever? Thanks. You going to send that back in for a sound upgrade any time soon? |

20 points = $1? What a total rip off, that will only pay for shipping.

Really Rifter a rip off? Ultrasabers doesn't have to give us anything, but they choose to give us something unlike other big companies like hasbro.  After all something is better than nothing at all.  Also nice grab bag ben. Makes me want to try for a grab bag if all those color hilts are gone.  |
