ok here's my review and a bit of the story of what i went to finally get it!
i ordered almost 2 weeks ago but it was like centuries for me, i was going crazy and the hype kept growing, then when i was most desperate i called the seller in london and he informed me that my package was in hold at the delivery warehouse! aaaa, i had to go pick it up myself, like 15 miles away, that if i wanted it today, they could always bring it tomorrow, but hey, i was more than happy to hear i could go pick it up myself, so i went, and...
sweet first saber box opening ;D
yes i know it was not much of an odyssey, but my thoughts were taking me directly into the dark side. now that i got the saber i can clear my mind and start practicing, and then fall into the dark side later when i get a vader ESB. ;D
so here's my short review;
hilt: awesome, loved it, i liked the diferent finish metal band on the center where the ignition is set, i think i got the 2nd version (metal 900 gr) one, and i can see the charge up pins are metal (i think) anyway, hilt rocks!
blade: it's bright! i like it, i can see the infamous dark spot in the middle thou, but it's not much of an issue it's just a little bit noticeable. the blade is just a little bit wobbly, that was the only thing i didn''t like much, but again, not a problem, love the saber.
sound: it's loud on the ignition and clash and humming but not so much in the movement sounds, those seem to be the least loud of them all.
overall: i like this saber, and it's my first one so maybe i come back and add some more stuff to the review when i get another saber.
thanx ya all for guiding me into this great experience
ha!
