They're better than the regular Air Bender IMO, but I prefer the Ligeros and DL's over the Air Benders. Also... these aren't chisels as indicated in your thread title, it is the maduro in the barn. Size is a little bit bigger than a toro.
And Brent, with the barn and 24 sticks they are in the $350 range, but have seen just the single cigars in the $10 range.

Hard to tell from the pic, is it an actual sealing humidor, or just an outer shell for the box?
--edit, nevermind, I found it -- it is a humi, and has a spot to accomodate humipaks

One of my top 5 smokes of 2011. Save the marketing gimmick in the humi, I'll just take the box of sticks.

I have a hunch we may see another AB Maddy at some point in a different size 
Brent, I wouldn't trust it as a humi at all. Yes it had two humi packs crammed in a little spot but not ideal for a humi.

I got mine from Superior. The humidor is a thicker walled cigar box that you can put boveda's into it. I didn't keep the cigars in there, I put them into 5 finger bags and dropped them in my larger humidor. I bought it mainly for decoration. The intent is to be a talking point when I bring people into the room to give them a cigar. I totally think it was worth it. Plus, the cigars are fantastic.

OKay...post update.
Money being a little tight right now with the wife loosing her job a couple weeks ago, I wasn't sure I wanted to spend the coin on one cigar but the curiousity factor was to much for me so I spent $15 on one of these to test drive.
Results...Mixed.
I liked it but not eneough to pay that much. It was a decent cigar with it's own flavor but for the money I think I'd rather have a Litto Small Batch.
Just thought I'd share.

Its an average cigar at Best Tom! Maybe time will work wonders,
I don't know.
It's a humidor. Has a little compartment at the rear for a Boveda packet. That's what I use. The maduro is better than the regular Bender. Very smooth and has some sweetness. They are huge though, and burn forever in my experience (smoked 4 so far).
Edit: just saw your edit
$15 is quite high for this... The price has gone up from about 8 ea to 9.15, and they are now available without the house (well, you have to buy 1 house and get bundles to restock).
I have to disagree with the "average at best" comment. It's a really nice smoke, very consistent. Between the ones I have had and the feedback from all the customers, this is far from average. We have gone trough 5 or 6 houses, all sold as singles, and almost everyone that smoked one has come back for more.
