Title: Dark Initiate V2 Review
Post by: San on December 15, 2012, 05:38:52 PM
Hi there,

first of all: I. LOVE. YOUR. WORK!

I wanted a Ultrasaber for months and decided to make myself a christmas present.
So finally I ordered my first Ultrasaber: a Dark Initiate V2.
I‘m short (1,68m), so I chose an Initiate, but with a heavy Grade Blade and the Color Consular Green.
My order from December, 07. was with me on December 14.  I need to say, I live in Germany, so I was afraid, it would take weeks to come. You may imagine, as it came, I was totally freaking out!  ;D It is amazing and worth every cent! It made my day, my week, the whole Christmas!

This is my saber, turned on by daylight(!):

I am seriously in love with this thing. I can use it with both hands, but it‘s slim enough to handle it with one. I will definitely buy another one next year. With sound then, I guess.  ;D

Thank you, seriously thank you for the amazing work you are doing!!!!
San.

Hey San!

Nice to see SO else from Germany who has this "addiction problem". Ask Relmeob to add you to the sparring partner map, so maybe we can found a "self-help group"  ;D

Nice saber to begin with ...

CG looks great on the dark hilt! Yay for Consular Green!  ;D

Thanks for the replies. :)

@Darth Sabre
Yeah, I‘m not alone! :D I was scared, I would have to pay customs, but I had no problems.
Where can I find the sparring partner map? Well, I guess everyone would beat me. I have no real skills by now.   

@eerockk
Well, I needed a few days to decide if i want Blazing Red or Consular Green. I like the „Sith color", but in most reviews, the red blades just look more like orange to me.

Must be a camera thing. Cameras in general capture lightsabers mostly inadequately: they mess with the colors, their stupid auto brightness regulation feature is thrown all bazongas with the lightsaber glow.

Thank‘s for the link.

I hoped it was a camera thing. And if you say so, I trust you.
I think about getting a Adegan Silver next time and use Color Discs. So I can have all colors.

Excellent saber, I really love the choice of hilt and blade color!  Of course anything in CG looks great to me, but I especially like dark hilts with it.

@Ricos
A great early Christmas present for him! :) I knew, that the Dark Initiate is more a „Youngling“ saber, but since I‘m a female, it‘s perfect for me too. :D



Thank you all for this warm welcome!! :)
