OK, you wanted to see the Premium Grab Bag saber I received with my first ever saber order (two super awesome Menace sabers, but you've seen those before). I'm not ready to master a review quite like Lord Canterbury, but I can add some photos and first impressions. Without further ado. the Shock/Archon/Dark War Glaive Saber (I call it Death Stick): First up, a look at the whole saber body - a combination of the Shock emitter, Archon v2.0 body/hilt, and the Dark War Glaive pommel, a striking combination:  Next, just the Dark War Glaive pommel:  Then, the Shock emitter:  A glimpse of the UE HG blade added in Guardian Blue:  And the complete saber in all it's glory, magnificent!!  No sound as this is a stunt saber, but all premium parts and a wonderful combination. I agree with what many folks here have said, the Archon hilt is really perfect for handling and wielding. Not much time with it yet and it will be given away to a friend's son (the friend gets the Menace SE I received) to blow his mind. But I bet I'll get to see it again. Thanks again US for awesome sabers and the really special PGB saber!!!

Very nice! It even looks like it has holes drilled for an activation box.

Pulled another grab bag today off the order for the wife's saber. Same setup and color. Looks like they've got extra Archon and Mantis parts laying around.... Or, it's all a ploy to get me to buy couplers and double blade it (which is probably happening now that I have 2 matching sabers).

That would make a really cool staff though.

Got confirmation tonight that order shipped. Guess the wait was due to swapping in Tri-Cree Led's. Can't wait to see what Premium Grab Bag is going to be. Even as stunt it should be cool. Have seen some amazing Sabers already posted so cross fingers!

I imagine you'll be one of the first on the forum to have their Tri-Cree option, exciting. Curious what your premium will be too.

Aye. Cost me $60 for Premium and both Menace's as they had to disassemble them. But hopefully worth it. For $10 extra as opposed to $35 for FoC, I suspect it will be my second default option that always take along with Li-ion batteries.
Using my BR Dark SI outside last Saturday I could barely see colour when on. I know Emory explained that Tri-Cree won't triple the brightness, I am hoping that will still give better looking BR in particular. Plus now FO sounds really appealing with Tri-Cree.
Hopefully due for delivery on Monday but won't get a chance to properly look at them until Tuesday.

I have a Blue Tri-Cree on one of my hilts, it's a good setup - you'll love it.

Cool. Do you have a single LED blue Saber to compare it to?

Yes, it's not something you can seen on camera - maybe a bit more of a flare, but slight. In person though you can see the difference.
