Well, first off I'm sorry for the lack of pics, they should be up later today(damned mailman delivered it RIGHT before I had to leave to college).

For starters, the hilt. I already found the Raven to be quite light, but this thing is a feather. I have ZERO trouble swinging it around, so I can only imagine how the smaller sabers feel. The balance is a bit blade-heavy, even with a midgrade, but not enough to be concerned about it. The design is beautiful, with a nice balance between black/silver, with a well-vented simple pommel and a BEAUTIFUL emmiter.

Now, for the electronic part. As expected from US, it's flawless, with a strong, very bright LED(Blazing Red was my choice) and loud, clear sound from the Obsidian soundboard. The Flash on Clash system is also absolutely beautiful, I chose Orange and it pairs beautifully with the Blazing Red, making a very nice effect when triggered(might post a vid later).

Then comes my favourite part: equipping this beauty with a Dark War Glaive emmitter. It looks absolutely beastly(better than the originals, IMO), and doesn't add any imbalance to the hilt, thankfully. I'm probably going to use it like this very often.

Well, to finish it off, I combined this beauty with my Raven to form a staff. They combine rather nicely, but as said before, the Raven is WAY heavier than the Overlord, so it's quite imbalanced. Might make it a little hard to move it around, but I have yet to fully test it, so don't take my word on it.

Full specs:
LED: Blazing Red
Blade type: Mid-grade
Battery setup: Li-ion with BuckPuck
Obsidian USB Sound
Flash on Clash: Orange
Normal emmitter/pommel finish

You flatter me, good sir. Of course, there's sound on both of them, since it is my belief that it isn't a true lightsaber unless it has sound. My wallet can cry all it wants, but all my sabers will have sound in them Cool And a cookie for the DBZ reference  Grin

Can't wait to test these babies in combat.
