I was browsing the Facebook Group and saw something underneath the pictures of the Vanquish someone has posted, and here it is:


On one hand, YAY VANQUISH :woohoo: !
On the other hand, the lead times will suffer for our celebration, I'm certain of it :S .

EDIT: Image is not being cooperative, reuploading...
EDIT2: Fixed it.
The above post may be subject to editing. A lot of editing.

Now I am curious how many people will be a day 1 purchase for the Vanquish.

I was thinking standard/dual tone finish as well, since my ASP is weathered, but after checking out some photos of the weathered version BoostinIX posted (like this one), I'm torn.

LED choice, unless I change my mind, will be a photo red tri-cree for some Sith-y goodness.

I wonder what the different versions will look like also. I do want to get a green saber finally.

We've seen the standard/dual tone from Jordan Moll's recent video and the above link looks like a weathered version (it resembles the way the Bane is weathered), so I wonder if it will be like the Bane and have a reverse dual tone and all silver as well.

That's my second LED choice!

Not me. But that's only because I'm not a fan of the curved hilts. What I am a fan of is seeing what you guys are going to do with this beast. B)

Took me awhile to see that. But I do get it now. That would be fun to see someone struggle to wield. ;)

I'm inclined to believe that unlike the 5 varying finishes offered like Bane, Vanquish will be limited to just the 3 much like the Hilt line-up currently offered on Main Site.



Posted at the top of Forum, the reference to Light, Dark & Grey suggests:
  1. Standard/Dual Tone
  2. Weathered/V2
  3. Grey Weathered
There's every likelihood that the Cool News Coming is the Official Release as 'Saber-of-the-Month'.

Good eye! That's probably the most likely answer. I'd love to see it in grey weathering (especially since that option didn't transfer over to the main site with the Archon).

As a side note, they could probably be more clear on the finish options on the Bane's main site page. The options are silver emitter/pommel and black body, black emitter/pommel and silver body, and weathered, but the drop down menu says standard, dual tone, and weathered. The description only says that standard is silver/black and dual tone is black/silver. My guess is that the first color is the emitter/pommel and the second is the body, but I could see how one might see it the other way. I have a bad feeling there will be same angry emails in SF future...

Agreed. Even now with the limited Hilts the Grey Weathered is applicable/available for, an inclusion of pictures illustrating that finish would be great. Similarly to your reference to Archon, having a drop box for weathered finish and the same for GrandMaster & Silver Knight, an accompanying picture would be ideal.

I can't actually recall with accuracy, Bane on Etsy had several defined drop box options more than the typical three and listed the five consistent to the production description (as you have described above). However Yes, increase in emails are inevitable as there will be confusion from the CSRs with the Consumer ordering. Reminds me of a Thread Posted by alongwargame a little while back. His first Post was later deleted by himself but it did reference some links IIRC.

Has anyone ever tried to use a two handed hilt that curves like that? I love the Bane, but am a bit worried using the Vanquish would be awkward?

@Jaden Korr, good catch on the finish for the Bane. I had to ask a bunch of people which was which when I was going to get it!
