Title: FIRST SABER! Dark Apprentice V4 Stunt!
Post by: SpiralStatix on February 18, 2016, 10:32:12 PM
I did an unboxing video, but I'm not sure if I can post it considering the first thing I did upon seeing this beauty is immediately dropping the S-Bomb  ;D  It was love at first sight.  This was so worth the wait.  I ordered it 1/19 and now today it is in my hand.  I woke up to see that it had been delivered - USPS said it wouldn't be here til tomorrow!

Here's some pics:

This thing is really bright.  These next couple pics were taken in a daylit room!

Here it is lighting up a dark corner of my room:

One thing I will note: it looks a bit different in person!  On camera it looks white with a blue glow like it does in the movies.  In person though it's a solid blue blade.  But don't worry at all because it is still very bright and looks incredible.  I got a little worried it'd look glow-sticky but if you're still waiting on your first one, I can assure you it looks incredible.

I'm really glad I went with the UltraEdge blade, it looks really awesome and I like the full looking light.  I'm also really glad I went with the emitter windows because it adds character to the hilt imo.  Also, the blue button is really pretty in real life.  I was worried it wouldn't be but it's really shiny and cool.  ;D

The hilt feels really nice in my hand and it's just the right size.  It's well balanced and responds really well.

I'll post a video in the review section, one that I hopefully don't accidentally swear from the sheer awe of this beautiful thing, lmao.

THANK YOU ULTRASABERS!

My Phantom Initiate V2 staff also shipped today.  Today has been very great!

Awesome saber! You can definitely post your video in the review section of the forum. Most of us are okay with language (as long as it's not the bulk of your speech/writing)

Ah, okay!  I did let a few slip, but I tried to avoid it.  Most of them were heat of the moment and when I post it I'll be sure to put a little warning haha

Thanks!

And I'm not the best at spinning and my camera isn't the best but here's a video of me goofing off a bit:

And I only hit myself twice!  ...okay three times but technically the third time was a chair. ;D

Edit: oh, and of course, saber selfie!

Just wanna throw it out there that this thing has already gotten TONS of compliments on Twitter/FB.  Wait til they see it in person!

When did you order it?  Because if you ordered it before it was out of stock you'll probably be okay.

Awesome review, you pretty much covered all of my concerns (blade color, guarded switch, and windows). Point for you!

Congrats man! Nice review and photos! I love the Dark Apprentice. I have one in LE. Super easy to handle, light and just awesome. The black really accentuates the blue. I have Arctic Blue on mine. Point for you

No problem!  glad to help out in any little way I can.

I've always loved the look of black and blue - really makes the blue jump.  And I really dig the choking point - really makes it nice and easy to handle and to get a nice good grip.
