I'm digging the idea of a staff with the smaller designs.

I hear ya, Sam! I am thinking that a pair of the Dark Apprentice V5 LEs would be amazing, though the Initiate V5s look really awesome as well! Those claws on a staff config would be killer! |

In the Apprentice v5 writeup, it says 10" length -- is that with the pommel? I can't tell from the mockup if there's a pommel on it or not.
Since a sound coupler is 1.9", I'm wondering what the total length for a 2x Apprentice v5 saber + 1.9" coupler would be.
(My hope is that those mockups include a pommel like a modified Bane pommel. Since the Bane pommel is 1.7" and other pommels are well over an inch, that means a pommel-less Apprentice v5 might be 9" or less, which would be wonderful.)

I would expect the pommel for the Apprentice V5 to be very similar to what is pictured and shown on the mock-ups, or to be what they put on the V4s - a simple, bevelled cap with cross-hatching for grip. Emory stated in the video that the size is the same, so your measurements for a staff with a vented coupler would be just shy of 22". |

I keep drooling at the Aeon V5. That might be my next saber.
The grenade section, the claws...

OMG I love the initiate v5 LE !
Will they be available in double blade or must we order 2 of them ?
Envoyé de mon ASUS_X00ID en utilisant Tapatalk
I'm curious great question, I also went to put a double bladed saber in my cart but diamond plus flash on clash weren't available. Instead I ordered a mystery box and coupler, figure worst case I can connect my aeon v4 stunt to my initiate diamond with 2 24". Will it make perfect sense no I guess but it didn't cost much and fingers crossed on my 4th mystery box lol. Truth is I do have plans of getting a new high end saber but my 2nd was just born and my wife is like scrooge mcduck with our savings account even tho I make a lot of money 😶🤔😫😤 point for awesome question |

Vengeance is a must death will follow no one will survive
Crimson Scorpion diamond, dark Initiate v4 stunt, Sentinel LE v4 stunt, Aeon v4 stunt. If I could name change it would have been Darth Sithious

I’m not sure that they’ll it is duel blades saber so we’ll probably just have to buy two to make a staff |

The Initiate V5s would be an amazing staff!!!
  Am I the only one that sees potential for the new Ini's to be a poor-man's Satele Shan hilt?

Emerald and Diamond have FoC functionality built in. You can program how many flashes, how quick to flash, and what CUSTOM color to flash. You can even program a pulse, which is a color change without clash. |

I can tell you that : if I order one, I order 2 ! And I'll use them as a double blade !
Still don't know if I'll take 2 initiates or 1 initiate and 1 apprentice !

Bleagh. My v3 staff is a touch too long at 20.9", so even longer is definitely a dealbreaker. Alas. That said, the mockups are definitely pretty. Here's hoping there'll be a future variant that are notably shorter. |
