But yes, I love my Monsters. Viaje releases are all very small and seem to have a story with them. Their Zombie line and Moon cigars (I don't know if they have a name) are their fall cigars. They also release a Thanksgiving cigar - Stuffed Turkey and Hatchet Bill. Again, there is a story line with them. Halfwheel normally gives a nice write-up on them each year with the history and how Viaje plays with them.

2. Halfwheel and Cigar Co-op are my news sources

3. @jhedrick83 is into transvestite strippers

I think I read the Monster Line was planned to end at 13 releases and last year brought out 12 and 13?

With the money involved, I'd be shocked if something doesn't continue come out (like the mbr) even if they take a year off.

"Hey darlin', take off that apron"

I thought Jesse liked “Midget” included before “Transvestite Stripper.”

When Bride was released two years ago it was #13 which closed the loop on new Monsters. Chuck and Tiff had been released with the Pudgy and Skinny series but never full size and were part of the Monster family. So they got their official #11 and #12 release last year. 3 years ago Michael was #10. So Pete had always planned it. I thought he held onto Chuck/Tiff and released full size out of order due to FDA. Never heard that officially, just my guess.

As for the future of the Monster series, I doubt it is going away. I could see smaller releases of different sizes like the MBS this year. Or I could see samplers come out of full size ones in the future. A box with 1 full size of each of the 13 would be pretty cool. Stuff like that.

I was thinking the same thing and/or redo the previous sampler lines with the full 13

Just caught wind of the Tatuaje Karloff being released soon. Pricepoint matches Monster series.
