We just might.

Get a Grab bag for her with a VA or CG LED and a blade.

She's not uber geeky about star wars like we are but she still loves everything about it.

Good Call Master.

Point!

Thanks for all the great feedback guys. There's something I wanted to add now that the review is out of the way. When the package arrived it looked as though someone tried to tear it in half literally. I stopped the driver and made him wait while I opened the box to insure my saber was not broken in any way. He patiently waited as I opened the box and tested the saber. Everyone should do this when a package arrives in this condition. Don't be afraid to speak up to the driver. Here are pictures of my package as it arrived.

I'm thankful that US started using bubble wrap as an extra precaution in shipping. I don't know if the saber would have been in good working condition if they hadn't bubble wrapped it.

I sympathize with you DJ. Yesterday my Archon Pommel and Bronze Button showed up.... it was a miracle the bubblewrapped pommel was still inside the box. In fact the bubblewrap is probably the only reason I even GOT my stuff! The UPS guy tossed it on my porch, hit the doorbell, ran to his truck and floored it. Literally gone when I got to the door. There was a big tear in one end of the box, and a giant hole big enough I could tug my stuff out through it at the other end.  Angry

I sent UPS a complaint and all they said was essentially 'sorry, but the condition of the shipping container is not our responsibility and we do not garuntee the container to arrive undamaged, only the item.' Nevermind the item could have fallen out of the box the way they delivered it! Heck! The peanuts all did!

Not to have stolen your thread with a UPS rant, but I just wanted to share your.... dissatisfaction, with a sub-par shipper. I think next time I buy I'll email US and see if a special request will get my stuff shipped FedEx.  Tongue

Luckily I've only had one that came that damaged and that was over 1 1/2 months ago, but everything was fine inside.  (knocking on wood) I got one coming today sometime.

First off, nice job on the review DJ. Second, that is crap. UPS should take better care of stuff THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR!

I sent UPS a complaint and all they said was essentially 'sorry, but the condition of the shipping container is not our responsibility and we do not garuntee the container to arrive undamaged, only the item.' Nevermind the item could have fallen out of the box the way they delivered it! Heck! The peanuts all did!

Not their responsibility? Then whose responsibility is it!? And that's BS anyway, since the condition of the container often has a direct effect on the CONDITION OF THE ITEM(S).  I'm gonna stop now, before I go on a huge rant.

@Nero. I would go for it anyway. He will probably be excited first ignite. xp I thought I wouldn't be too much into the saber thing but look at me now. My bro wants one too.

This looks really great, nice review!
I have been thinking about getting a phantasm, but now with these, and with having held one in your hand (as far as length) do you think it would be better to get an initiate phantasm so I could wield it in closed areas or do you think it would be too short?

By "Closed Areas" I am assuming you mean spinning indoors, is that right?
