Swapped out the buttons for silent Sanwas. 6 buttons ftw.
Overall I like it, it’s a bit of an adjustment from the Fighting Edge. It’s noticeably taller, and has less space to rest your hands on under the lever/buttons. It’s super solid though.
Silent Sanwas in there. Still debating whether or not to switch to a JLF.
Love the color scheme there! Especially the red options button!
Mine will be here tuesday, I’ll be using pink sanwa RG buttons, and an ls32 with the limited edition seimitsu balltop that is that highlighter green/yellow color. the balltop wont be here for a few days though, maybe a week
Absolutely no idea what colour buttons/ stick I’m going to go with (black or Seimitsu smoke probably winning at the moment), so keep the pics coming everyone!

Here’s mine with Clear Smoke Sanwa parts.
Im going Black Gamerfingers with black switches and a crown 307, as long as it fits, in either black or red. Cant wait till this beast shows up today.
Looks great - think smoke may have just moved into the lead…
Those smoke buttons are very clean looking. I’m planning on the semi-clear seimitsu purple buttons with the violet bubble top
I am also going to so a Smoke parts mod, I am just waiting on the stick to get here.
I can’t decide what color buttons to put in. 
Stick is awesome. Having the touchpad for MKX is a welcome addition.
This is a good time to make some mock ups in photoshop (or gimp)
Mine came in today and the buttons don’t squeak!!!
Welp, mine came in and it came with a big scratch in the metal part down to the metal. I wrote to Hori about it complaining about the quality control issues. This is disappointing.
Dude…that sucks.
Sorry to hear… Hopefully Hori does right and hooks you up. I assume no outer shipping box, right?
Will be checking mine later on, ordered 2 of them but they did come inside a bigger box. Good luck.
Finally had mine come in today, although I’ll probably not post pictures until I finish my customs on it.
If there are any complaints on my part, it’s that the Hayabusa (stick) initially felt really loose compared to the Sanwa JLF that im used to. I’ve become spoiled by that rigidness. After breaking it in a bit, i suppose it doesn’t feel any worse than the stock Qanba stick; in fact it’s probably a bit better.
My Kuro buttons don’t squeak at all, and they feel fine, but they don’t exactly have that firm “snap” that Sanwas have.
Nice to meet you guys btw. I don’t really post much but I’ll be around while i try to customize this thing.
Anyone notice that the kuro start button is like total crap?
I liked the JLF and used it for many years but since I got to try the Hayabusa I’ll never go back to using a JLF again(unless it’s not my own stick and I have no other options) lol
You can always buy a stronger spring if you think it’s too loose stock.
