Camo Cigars

[danthebugman]

Got a Thompson magazine in the mail today. Have never ordered from there, but still like to read through them. Ran upon these:

Gimmicky? Oh yeah, you betcha. Still cool as hell? Damn straight. I may end up pulling the trigger on these :dunno:. Thoughts?

I bet a person would look like a drag queen with your lips stained 5 different colors with all the dye on those wrappers.......lol. They would look really cool for something to sit in your humidor.

Interesting indeed. Probably cool to at least see in the humi. They're definitely unique looking.

just doesn't appeal to me for some reason. Looks like it got dropped on the rolling room floor then stepped on.

Actually not a bad cigar. I got them for our military presence here in the store and they aren't horrible. Not a PAM 64, but not a complete dog rocket either!

And it isn't a dyed wrapper, it is pieces of different levels of fermented tobacco leaves glued on the actual wrapper.

OK that makes sense about the wrapper. Seems like a lot of work for a pretty inexpensive cigar

Thompson exclusives = garbage.

It does seem kind of gimmicky. But it is a cool idea. I got a Thompson's catalog today and saw them as well. Swisher Sweets on the cover too!

Just kind of annoyed me when over 50% of their catalog are house blends which are god awful.

 

[danthebugman]

If anyone gets some I'll do a split/fiver. As a Marine, I can't resist the good ol' tri-color. Do they make a desert camo version? :grin:

Well if a few more people are interested this could be a possibility :eyebrow:.

Group Buy?:crosseyed

 

[BrandonP]

They aren't Thompson exclusive. I sell them here in my B&M and get them from the manufacturer.

 

[Wink]

The cool factor is enough for me Dan! Pull the trigger my brother!

Um...these guys DO know that none of the Armed Forces wear Woodland Camo anymore, right??

:rolling:

 

[SergeantStogie]

x2 Tobi. And life is too short to waste money on a gimmick like that.

 

[SergeantStogie]

Giving that brand money is like buying Chiclet in Tijuana, it only encourages shitheads to keep being shitheads.

if you buy them dan, have them sent to another address (like frank's). you'll never be rid of the bastards once they have their hooks in you.......

Of course, but I hear a digi camo version is in the works. :tonguerol

Don't take them hunting, you'll never find them!

I think I am going to pass. These things look nasty.

Hey BoB, I just caught to what you meant! You are absolutely right I ordered a few sticks early summer it was a sampler pack. I received a phone call from someone who represents the company thanking me for the purchase which was cool, but then a few months later I get a $85.00 dollar charge and 16 sticks and welcome to the club pack...etc..etc I called to find out what was going on they told me I joined the club..blahh...blah blah...I tried to cancel they told me they'll push it back a few months just in case I change my mind then I get another call....???? :angryteet A Dan forget what I said!!
