Yes I am curious on this as well......also I am curious why they are releasing them in batches to some retailers. I did not get in line quick enough on the pre-orders to be in the first shipment from my retailer.

I got the Drac card!

I really like tats, but are these little monsters good?

From my limited comparisons(aka only the Face and Wolfman), they're as good, if not better(in the case of the Wolfie). I've heard my thoughts echoed from many customers and friends who have tried them.

I don't know what the store situation is in California...but here in Portland...I can't get a straight answer out of any of the B&M's if they are even going to receive any.....at all.....so I had to go online to do so

which company did you go to?

[ironchefscott]

I ended up going with 3jcigar. But I think they might have filled up their first shipment....I would check out...and make a phonecall to see if they will ship right away or if they are waiting for their second shipment to a few places.....corona, high quality cigars are a few...and federal cigars...might be good...just don't want to be put on the wait list for the second shipment if possible..that is my input...anyone else have any wisdom?

I would love to go next year.....they have some mellow herfs(usually on the days I am working) nothing really that big that I have heard of(please let me know any oregon folk if I am just missing out on something) My favorite tat that I have had is a tie between the black label PL, and the noella....but I have really really wanted to try a barclay rex badly!

Corona is sold out of their first shipment. Called and got on the waiting list for the second, which they are hoping for next week

[TJtorpedo]

I was under the impression that the Mini-Monsters would be readily available at 5K or 10K boxes worth. Reading here that some brothers are having a hard time getting them and/or places are selling out, is it that Pete is just shipping them out in waves?

Yep, only a small amount has been released. I believe the next wave should be arriving to most vendors the end of this week or early next week. There should be plenty to go around.
