Prior to the official ASP release this winter SF is giving those who missed out on the ASP Kickstarter an opportunity to preorder ASP sabers. While the website they're using is formatted like a funding campaign this is not a 2nd funding campaign. No information has been released about the length of this preorder period and indications are that once the preorder period ends then contributors will place the specifics of their order.

Yes I saw this yesterday right before work ended. Immediately purchased a pre-order.

Now all I have to do it refine what I want my saber to look like!

Does this still mean that ASP will still be released to the public in November? As well as the first expansion set?
Light and darkness, you cannot have one without the other. To achieve equilibriem you must be in harmony with both; the path between.

That was the original window for the public release but there has never been a firm window for the first expansion. SF typically never sets firm release dates.

I understand there's no info about the period, but any ballpark guesses?

Maybe a month or so? There have been no clear indicators as of yet.

I ask because I heard that in the first expansion set there was going to be in-hilt recharge ports available, so I was just going to wait until November, because right now, the ASP sabers have a removable battery which I don't find very convenient. Also, I WOULD like to hop on this preorder but my current funds won't make it, I was saving up for November. You say "original window" does this mean that it has been changed?

All I want/need to know is: Is this preorder thing going to be going for another week and a half (until my next payday), or do I need to go sell bodily fluids right away in order to get up the money for a champion kit in time?

Good news on that front, Afadir... no selling of any........ fluids...... required.

The first round of preorders will end in December. You have time. ;)

The ASP system is still (so far as I've heard) launching in November, and the first expansion set will be due out early 2016, as they're launching ASP with the first couple of expansion sets of parts and pieces. In-hilt recharge will be early 2016.

Fortuitously, that used saber deal fell through on me and I got my money refunded this afternoon. Which gets me back just enough to hit the Champion kit, once Paypal decides to unclench the money from betwixt its cheeks on Monday.

Hmm, this sure piques my curiosity, now Knytiri, grab my attention: if I preorder, since the sabers will be shipped out during december-Feburary, will the saber I receive have the in-hilt recharge port? Cuz I really don't want to get it and then have to send back when the expansion set kicks in. What is worth more my money? That is the true question, my friends, should I preorder and get the saber waaaaay next year, with the risk that I would I have to send it back? OR, wait till november? HELP MY HEAD IS GONNA OVERLOAD!

These are for the first set, so, no, it would not have in-hilt recharge. But as they're ASP kits, you wouldn't be sending it back in if you wanted a new electronics kit, you would just purchase a new one, and slip it into your saber instead. There's no set date or guarantee when the in-hilt recharge ports will be available. If you're dying for an ASP saber, it's best to go ahead and pick one up now, maybe just get a warrior electronics kit, then pick up a champion with in-hilt recharge later when they become available.

Both sound reasonable enough. I'm a patient person, but which would be easier/cheaper? Get a warrior, THEN buy a champion set when the in-hilt recharge port comes in? OR, buy a champion and then buy another electronics kit?
Help me Knytiri, you're my only hope.

Cheaper would definitely be buying a warrior, then upgrading to a champion kit later on when the in-hilt recharge kits are released. Of course, cheapest of all would be waiting until that point in time to even order the saber, buuut... it could be a few months before that happens. So it really depends on how much you want to wait. ;)

Do you think we will need to get a whole new switch section to upgrade, or just the electronics kit?
