Rock on!

To be honest I think in another week or two guys will have no problems tracking these down once the non-dress boxes land at all the other retailers. Keep in mind it's just the mostly just unlucky 13 who have received their allotments so far. My local only got theirs on Tuesday. I think NHC may have just gotten theirs early my guess is due to the volume he does for Pete. Just a guess on the last part. I think with a little patience they will start to surface a little more often and easier to grasp.

Yep, the vast majority of the plain boxes will hit stores the last week of the month. NHC is a special case and it's never good to rely on them for getting an LE. They're usually the only ones selling them online and everyone knows this. Any Tat or Viaje LE that hits NHC will be sold out in less than an hour (often less than 5 minutes).

Your best bet is still to call your closest Tat retailer and ask if they'll save one for you.

IMO, the wolfman lighter is fugly (that's just my opinion though) and so was the face lighter set from last year. At least last year's set you got a lighter AND a cutter. This year's looks like some tribal mess and has nothing to do with wolfman.

Forcing you to buy a $350 lighter to buy a box was robbery and people will remember these things when shopping around in the future. Used car salesmen tactics would easily make me walk out the door. Next thing you know they'll be selling you extended warranties and satisfaction guarantees on any unsmoked, unopened product (LOL).

Sidenote, why did this year's release get called Wolfman instead of just 'Wolf' like all the other abbreviated names from previous years?

I have the Face set and the cutter is useless to the point where it lives in the box they came in. Dupont makes really nice lighters, but they can't make a cutter to save their lives.

A money back guarantee, sign me up! My budget would get cut in half.

They probably didn't abbreviate because when guys say wolf I know myself and others would probably think of things like this epic t-shirt.

The Wolfman set comes with an embossed leather lighter case in place of the cutter.

I prefer punches myself. I'm looking for a nice one right now in fact.

Yeah, the Face set had a leather sleeve as well, it was under the tray in the box. Honestly, I like the look of the Wolfman lighter, but not at retail price.

There isn't enough room in my skull for how hard I want to roll my eyes at that. Wow. For that much it needs to serve as my primary mode of transportation as well.

I was just thinking about how I paid $2100 for my motorcycle.
