Initiate v3 Review

[Jaina Solo Fel]

Almost two weeks ago, I ordered the first time from the USA.
I was excited and my mom was like "There'll be prpblems. You won't order from USA again."
C'me on... I'm almost 21. It's my money so my decision.

Then I waited for the best thing a true Star Wars fan can own.
My first lightsaber.
Initiate v3 all silver with a beautiful purple blade and no sound.

The shipping infortion said it would be 2 - 3 weeks from TX do Germany.
It arrived the Thusday last week, so it took only  6 days! What is really fast and I was so happy and not able to keep myself together in frint of the nice FedEx mailman, who was a bit confused about me screaming "It's here! I got it! It's here!!"

I ran up to my room, took my pocket knife and destroyed the carton (not hitting my new lightsaber).
The hilt has a nice weight and is not too big for my small hands, as I am only 1.54 meters small.
The metal touches really great and it's worked perfectly!
Then I discovered that black button which would turn the light on.
And the purple was stunning! In a normal lighted room! I was stunned, runnung down to my twin, saying: Look at that! Look!
My little sister wasn't so amused, but she liked the safety material.

So all in all I can say:
Beautiful shining light
Incredibly done metal work
Nice price
Good handling

-> perfect lightsaber!

I'll use it for bot of my jaina Solo costumes.
And if I get out how to upload pics I'll show you.

Thank you Ultrasabers!
Best rewards
Jaina

Congratulations on your new Initiate V3!  I also own this Saber, in all silver, and i have really enjoyed it.
Keep in mind that the Initiate can easily be modified with MHS hilt parts ,so you can make the hilt longer if desired ,also US offers a coupler and if you order another one, you can make it into a Saber Staff , not to mention of course dual wield the two individual Sabers.

 the Initiate V3 is a good looking design that has a clean hilt excellent for actual use, its a great sparring Saber,and can be made into a staff , a long hilt design, even a spear design with extra parts.

Altogether it is in my opinion the most versatile ,cost effective, and good looking entry level light saber out there
, i have never been anything but satisfied with mine, i think the longer you own it the more you will love it!


 Enjoy!

Thanks!
If I will only love it more, my family will definetly not be amused.

I really love it and to know you can mod it, is great! I didn't know yet!
I definetly will buy another one one day, if I get money I don't really need for other things.

Soooo glad, my Jaina Costumes will be complete this weekend ! *-*

Sounds sweet!
I ordered my first saber the other day as well, a Dark Initiate v3 in Dark Violet Amethyst. I live in Sweden so it should also be 2-3 weeks, but now I'm REALLY hoping I'm as lucky as you were...
My reaction on getting the saber will probably be similar to yours. Really looking forward to it!
Peace and enjoy your saber!

Congratulations Jaina Solo Fel!

The V3 Initiates are arguably the best single handed wielding saber to be found anywhere.  Also, I really loved reading your reaction to getting your first saber.  I can so picture the FedEx guy's bewildered look ...and your sister rolling her eyes...  

Way cool...  And a point to you.

@Yiggysaw:
Hope so, too! Which one did you order, if I may ask?

@Julmax:
Thanks ^^ It was such an amazing feeling! My friends are already getting annoyed...

I guess it will take some time to 'get over' that too happy mood

It says in my first post, a Dark Initiate v3 with Dark Violet Amethyst, no sound.
