This being my first Neopixel Proffie 2.2 lightsaber, I was nothing short of excited to receive my lightsaber after watching a number of unboxing videos, reviews, comparisons, etc... but after receiving it, I've got to say to be honest, I was underwhelmed... I'll make this brief but concise:
PROS:
- Emitter, hilt, pommel components are so sturdy and seemingly well built.
- Though hefty in weight, it's got a good grippy feel to it that's quite comfortable as a result of the textured grip section.
- The detail is amazing on the hilt... every curve and contour (no hot spots or excessively sharp points), from the hand guard, grip, to the pommel is on point and manufactured well, making it a fine display piece.
- Comes with a display stand.
CONS:
- Package design, though well-secured, was a bit disappointing in regards to the attention to detail. After seeing a number of unboxing videos for this saber price point, I did expect a bit more in regards to the presentation. Package visuals were very generic and plastered with an odd filigree design.
- D-ring is not securely fastened to the pommel, causing it to pop out from time to time, and has slightly scratched the brushed metal finish.
- Though a single retention point seems like a good idea in terms of ease of use, would still prefer three (maybe just me) for confidence. That single point doesn't quite feel secure.
- Speaker was more muffled than I had expected it to be, and during a few light swings, experienced the audio just briefly cutting off/ skipping. Perhaps could be the sound font?
- Pre-loaded sound fonts, blade styles, and ignition styles on Proffie 2.2 seemed underwhelming. As an example, Luke's sound font sounds nothing like his lightsaber and rather sounds like a peculiar piano/ organ sound.
- Gesture and button commands are unfortunately not as sensitive as I had originally hoped they would be. Adjusting the volume was a task, and more often than not, the board doesn't pick up flash on clash action via impact on the blade, and requires a substantial amount of force just to register; however doing so on the hilt seems to register better (even after after triple-checking the blade connection). Would love to have received some kind of tutorial instruction for the commands.
- Unfortunately (though not entirely disastrous), the button for changing sound fonts seems to stick at times causing a failure to register button commands - this was disappointing because the build seemed so on point. At times, I'd have to press and wiggle it to get the appropriate click to engage the command. This perhaps could have been a one-off?
- Admittedly, receiving the RGB S4 BOGO was one of the appeals when I decided to purchase this Shin Hati lightsaber; however, after receiving was surprised to have received a very generic RGB S4 baselit with what looks to be a 20-24in blade? Would have appreciated to see a bit more detail on the website for the Free Lightsaber deal such as info on blade length and possible designs? Knowing this, I'd probably forgo the offer and would have loved seeing more attention to detail on the package design or a more appealing neopixel blade plug.
I have been asked to review the Ani SE. I’d love to, but II have yet to receive it.
Hello, Ani is often out of stock due to its popularity, so orders need to be queued for shipment after replenishment. Your order was shipped last week and is expected to be delivered this week.
I just needed a saber for cosplay and this one fit the bill! I love the features and the detail is very impressive.
Thank you for your kindness and may the Force be with you always.
OUTSTANDING Saber !!!!!!!
It is my Birthday Present from Myself.
The saber is SO Amazing.
Beautiful & Sturdy.
Many Many Thanks.
Satisfying our customers is our first principle, and we appreciate your positive feedback.
The material is sturdy, the colors are fitting even though I haven't bought my lightsabers from here. The lightsaber look so cool with the fitting clip and you really do feel like a true Jedi or Sith :)
Thank you for your kind words! I look forward to you enjoying it even more at the next Star Wars event!
So amazing
Thank you for your kind words.Obi-Wan EP4 is a sincere work of art and we are very happy that you like it!
The Jedi Revan saber is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I had bought the Darth Revan saber last year and I was finally able to complete the set with the Jedi Revan one. If anyone is thinking of getting it, I say go for it. The only thing that stops it from being 5 stars is the placement of the covertec wheel. It’s not compatible with the one sold in Galaxy’s Edge, and I don’t want to buy a whole new one to be able to wear it so I’ll have to either modify it he wheel, or find a workaround. Great saber nonetheless.
Thank you very much for your kind words.
We've spoken to our engineers about the illogical design of the structure and hope to address it in the next update.
Lightsaber is extremely nice and evenly weighted an amazing replica and my fiance was happy to add it to his collection
That's what we value! Very happy you guys are enjoying it.
Fantastic piece of kit. Very well machined metal sturdy design and the blade core is easy to use. Brilliantly bright, great effects. 10/10 I love it!
Thank you for your kind words, this is some of the creativity we have made based on the fine neck lightsaber.
Well protected and fast delivery!
I already planned my next light saber to buy
Thank you for your kindness. We love the Cal Kestis so much that in addition to the two models we've already released, we released Cal's crossguard lightsaber last week, and we'll be releasing Cal's double-bladed saber in about a month.
Amazing, already left a review but forgot to add video
Great video, thank you for your kindness.
Bought this for my boyfriend for his birthday didn't get it till 2 weeks after, but it was worth the wait he has dreamed of having anakin skywalker lightsabe since he was 6 years old. He has not put it down since. Worth its money, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!
Thank you for your kind words, and stay tuned for our annual rebate program for our loyal customers.
It was amazing way brighter than I expected. Thank you.
Making our lightsabers loved by our customers is where Superneox's values lie. Thank you for your appreciation.
Les sabres sont géniaux ! La livraison est arrivée en 1 semaine. Très content d'avoir acheté sur ce site. Le service client est aussi très réactif ! Je recommande.
Le seul petit bémol, c'est la longueur du texte pour la gravure. Ce n'est pas indiqué (ou je n'ai pas vu !), mais seul des petits textes ou des mots/prénoms peuvent être gravés.
Merci beaucoup pour votre appréciation.
En ce qui concerne la question de l'inscription, nous réfléchissons à la manière dont nous pourrions offrir davantage d'options de personnalisation pour les sabres laser. Cela prendra un peu de temps, car la gravure au laser varie d'un sabre laser à l'autre.
I sleep with it on my bedside table, and I wake up wanting to take over the galaxy. Awesome saber, both to display, and whirl around (and to find things in the dark).
Let's take over the galaxy together!
Very nice light saber my daughter loved it thank you. She’s a huge Star Wars fan.
For Christmas 2024, we realized that many of our customers give their kids lightsabers as gifts to make Star Wars dreams come true for the little ones, so we purposely added a 26" blade to hopefully make them safer during the show. This is where the dream begins.
I liked the saber in general but the Bluetooth doesn’t work and the app for this needs to be fixed
Hello, Generally a firmware update fixes Bluetooth connection errors. I learned that the support team is working on fixing your problem.
Amazing lightsaber! It was everything I had hoped for. It has a great feel to it, good quality and good price too if you compare it with the master replica models. Perfect if you're looking for a "budget friendly" lightsaber! Fast delivery time too!
Thank you very much for your serious feedback.
Satisfying our customers is a value we are practicing and will uphold.
