Excited for you man - I have a Graflex on the way too. Here's some useful information to all - I learned this after calling customer service today to see if I can add flash on clash to my saber.. If you made a purchase over 250 (which you did), and entered the raffle, they are not planning on shipping until the raffle is over. So even though they said that they had my blade already constructed and it would cost an additional 25 to deconstruct and add flash on clash for mine (  ), they did tell me that it wouldn't go out until the 16th of Jan. She also said something along the lines of "...And I could send your package out now, but that would take you out of the raffle, and ... I STRONGLY urge you to stay in." Just the way she said it made me think that I might be a winner hahaha. But realistically they probably didn't even start yet. Yes.. I'm a daydreamer haha Anyway so just letting you know. Also, DAMN I got ultraedge heavy grades for both my sabers. One 32" and one 36" so that I can switch. But maybe I should order a separate 32" ultra midgrade after reading these comments. Oh well, maybe my free initiate or raffle saber (hopefully) will come in one of those mid grade blades. Only time will tell! Cheers and happy holidays bro! Maully Maul thanks for the tip however i didnt enter the raffle. i purchased it during the 15% off sound sabers event it was an opportunity i had to take. also cant wait to hear about your graflex and good luck in the raffle may the force be with you |

Maully Maul You could cut your 36 inch blade down to 32 inches with a pipe cutter, like this one:  And then use an x-acto knife to cut the film inside. I've done it to several of mine, and it works very well if you take it slowly. |

Nice. I'll be ordering me a Graflex finally tomorrow as well =] Not sure which button color combo to go for though for I'm always confused. Is the bunny ears button the rear button? I want a chrome front red back button look for mine for reasons ;o Will also be in Guardian Blue

I've done it to several of mine, and it works very well if you take it slowly. although cutting would save some money i think he should keep the 36" as a "spare blade" if he ever needs it for something else and just buy a separate 32" whenever he can just my thoughts |

I went with gold and gold as well.. I was considering Bronze on one side though.. There are a few threads here that break down the slight differences between the movies. Good Luck! |

I'll tell you what... If you're getting the CE version, the bronze buttons paired with red buttons look really sharp.  |

i do soft dueling i just care about my sabers too much i usually take off the claws for 3 reasons easier movement more blade area and i dont want to mess up another's blade if they hit the claws |
