Fuente Opus X Shark

Ok, so I have seen a few of the OPUS X Sharks in the Opus 22 boxes before, sexy looking stick but out of my budget... So I was in a B&M in West Palm Beach today, that HAPPENS to be asylum members, and they recieved an Opus Shipment... and what do you know, the shipment contained several full boxes (regular production boxes, mind you, not LE) of "Opus X Perfection No. 77 Shark"...

I thought to myself... WHAT!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Anyways, I asked if they were selling them as singles and graciously the owner, none other than Mr. Abe "Ming" of Smoke Inn Fame, said he wanted to take a few sticks himself, so sure, open them up...

I grabbed one today, and am going to go back and grab another few tomorrow.

The question begs, has this cigar EVER been released as a production cigar and not as part of the limited humidors or the Opus 22 sets?

This is the same cigar as: http://www.vitolas.net/displayimage.php?pos=-138


But with no red foot band. VERY interesting.

Thoughts?
