Well there it is folks – 1 of 4 (out of 500) Firecrackers with a gold skull.

Now isn’t that a curve ball? out of 999?
Now we all know that:
500 Firecrackers exist
238 are blue base
238 are red base
24 are white base
4 have gold skulls
1 out there is “extra” special
6 out there have a quadruple layer 12.3 million capsaicin
30 have “Feel Alive” written on them
But how many have #/999 on them?

Looks good but one thing to note: it doesn’t fit in the standard reserve box – the lid sits a little funny
I have a reserve box that it will fit in. its 4x4x6. Let me have that one and ill show you that it will fit.
Wow, that one just takes the cake, Blair really outdid himself…..I wish my two /999 were with a gold skull
It will be hard for some to have all of this reserve with so many different style bottles out there………………

I think Blair did this just to make us go crazzzzzzy, ‘attempting’ to have it all

I will have to agree with you on this one. There is 7 different bottles maybe more and 2 different encores. That will be a tough one to collect all 9 (or more) bottles
Yep, need to have several jobs or have millions to get all of em.

Tough would be an understatement, but I tip my Maple Leaf hat to the one who can do it…..but we can always dream, or win the lottery and buy them all

Wish I knew exactly how many different bottles there are. Maybe Blair or Nick will help out with this one..9 or more I am pretty sure of..
Hey, is anyone on this blog right now going to texas? I’m filling out the show paperwork and there’s only going to be 4 of us and I can get 2 people free badges good for fri-sun if you want. You just gotta do the beer run….
sorry, false alarm, this is the paperwork for Albuquerque next year.

Nick Lindauer on 7/27/2006 at 10:10 am said:
Yeah all 9 would include:
1 Blue Base
1 Red Base
1 White Base
1 Gold Skull
1 4 layer
1 Encore
1 Special Encore
1 Feel Alive
and the 1 extra special one – so only 1 person could get all 9, 4 people could get 8, 6 people could get 7 and so on and so forth…Too much math, too early…
Nick did you miss a encore. I thought there were some number encores
Nick Lindauer on 7/27/2006 at 10:20 am said:
Nope – 1 special encore (those are the numbered ones)
Sorry. Got it.
well that’s the last Blair’s reserve I buy
I think it’s cool that blair has put so much effort into this last reserve. Instead of doing someting “normall” he’s made it a challenge and made more specail ones for everyone. if he only did 500 straight bottles – the only special ones would be #1 and #500.

Great. Another 12 year old posting? Or someone who isn’t familiar with the caliber of people he speaks ill of? Liars in this business are smoked out in about 10 seconds. I’ve been in the business for just shy of 20 years now and don’t know Dave to be a liar about anything. If this claim were not true, it would have been challenged 15 years ago when it was made. He was not slamming Blair by pointing out that he was the first, anymore than I would be by pointing out that I grew Red Savina(R) before CaJohn had heard of them.
Ryan, Chris, you’re rubbing off on me

Hey ryan, now that Jim’s joined the club…does he get the “other” secret handshake
You have to remember: making super rare ones makes this BETTER. Factually. This is the coolest reserve he’s ever made. All of the little “sub-rarities” makes it MORE FUN.
– Ryan
P.S. My white base #293 arrives today!!
Also, I honestly think that this whole /999 thing was a mistake. I don’t see why he would do that. It doesn’t seem to make any sense.

But you now have 10 because of the bottles with the signing error 999 so now you have another to add to the list. But in the end, Blair did say “That no 2 bottles were the same.” so there are some variations of ink color and some of the streaming wax criss crosses on some and some go in same direction.
Nick Lindauer on 7/27/2006 at 11:48 am said:
Not really 10 though, because in this case it’s 1 of 4 that has an error – so it counts as 2
And we don’t know if it’s a signing error yet…
Now if one of those white base, quadruple layer, gold skull, FA, 999, turns out to be a special encore. ![]()
Hmmm. He would really have to love the person he sent that too LOL
Dammit that means he sent it to his wife! ![]()
No fair he is cheating.

I would be willing to think it is on purpose. Probably a tribute to the 4AM (wasn’t it 999?), his first limited production sauce in this style bottle. Only thing I can think of, but knowing Blair, who can tell! Unless he pops in here and lets us in on it, we may never know.

Nick, you could always add at least and maybe more to that list. Not just a feel alive, but a red feel alive and a blue feel alive! maybe even a blue gold and a red gold, or god shoud i say it…a white feel alive and a white gold, what about the 4-layer….ok i give up…..Blair wins!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey ChiliPals, I just saw the #999 For the First Time ( Well I imagine the Second time) I cannot tell you why I wrote 999 except that maybe I should I have made 999…..Only 500 Exist but I think because I have never had a # end in 00 and this was an early bottle I just plain F-it….Oh Well….Feel Alive Your Chilipal Blair—–PS Look for a 3 Part Reserve Series to Begin in Texas and End Holiday…All New Monster Bottles..59 in Texas…..Then ??? On Halloween and ??? Holiday
Very cool about the three part reserve!
And, yeah that’s what a I figured about the 999. What’s funny is that it simply addas character to the bottle! hahaha.
It’ll be a more valuable reserve. You can do no wrong Blair. LOL!
P.S. Can you give us any more hints as to what we should look for to identify a quadruple-layer 12.3 million bottle? Is it THAT noticable? Thanks!
– Ryan

Thanks for the update Blair and keep up the awesome work………

Hi everyone
My Firecracker 500 arrived today in Scotland.I was happy to get 1 (and the Encore) but I was feeling a bit let down when I saw the Encore was the basic bottle and the Firecracker 500 was a blue base….then I noticed the number #490-999…???

A three digit /999 ? Now that Blair has said that he “F-it” on some early ones, how many will show up with triple digits? The plot thickens!

Question about “bestbuy enterprises” on ebay. How come no one has bought the 2 FC500′s he has for 150 buy it now? Is he an ass or something?? LOL. Seems like a really good deal to me. $150 plus $20 shipping = total of $170 for a FC500. Not bad.

No to the haveing bad service. I have dealt with him as recent as Friday last week. Purchased something from him with another deal on the go. I think people are waiting for “different” or more “unusual” items in the FC run. He is a good guy no doubt.

Yeah, 1 bottle at a time I guess. Still waiting to see a four-layer.
Looks like the special gold skull and maybe the four layer, were shipped last, unfortunately i;m not waiting on any

Cool, thats what I wanted to know. Im just looking for a regular blue base to go with my regular red base. I have to wait about 5 days before the money from what I just sold will be in my account. then I will start to buy some things.
Also this gold skull FC500 might be the only gold skull one with the \999 on it. So, maybe this is the ONE extra special one??? Just something to think about.

I don’t think so, because Blair had mentioned there was one special one out there LONG before this mistake was brought to his attention.
Still can’t believe how good this looks!! The skull on top of such a small bottle looks awesome

Bwahaha that is pretty funny crack me up!!!
I still can’t believe the variety within the firecracker – its awesome!! I originally ordered 3 so that I could try some 14million su but I’m definately not going to do that now!! I have 3 different 1′s..how would I choose. lol….kidding
I’ll stick to the 5m su I got from muso……I can’t believe the heat that stuff has!! Probably a question many have answered before but can you really tell the difference between 5 and 14? or is that for HPLC etc to determine?
It is kinda cool that Blair did this with the FC500 but I truly do feel like my double digit red base is just another reserve now. I was all excited that I got my order in within 10 minutes of it going on his site but I guess that was a mistake. Oh well. But, I know I will try to get the next reserve.
Ryan@angrypepper on 7/27/2006 at 10:33 am said:

I do see your point there. Everyone gets the same chance of ordering early, I suppose the luck side of things should come into whether you are at the computer when the email comes through, or just checking the site.
It’s Blair’s show though and he seems to be running it well, very well

Hi Matt! That is why I have some Muso 5Mil. Honestly, do you really need to try hotter than that. The only other I would consider is pure 15/16 Million (whatever you purists prefer). So don’t even bother opening up a Reserve just to find out what a couple Mil more would feel like.
A very nice Firecracker 500!! I got a regular red base one #78/500 and regular Encore. I wonder where the other “Special” Firecrackers will surface.

Uh Ohhh!!
I say appreciate what you have and don’t sweat what the retailers get delivered to their orders of 50 bottles or whatever. They are going to get som stuff we will never see and have the option of selling or keeping fr personal collections. No sweat they are what Keeps the d00d afloat that we love collecting so much. I am eggstatic with my little humble collection of Blair’s and CaJohns (alphabetical order there no preference
) But if some d00d that spends 800x more than i do in a month with the supplier…let him have it
(But if they ever wanted to sell me something they got at somewhat reasonable price because they were good to go for a quick buck and a good night on the town with the family on me, hELLLLSss yeah I would jump at the chance to buy their item
) ..ok i have had a few beers tonight and this sounds really cute loveabe and funny right now and is meant in fun, so if it comes across as harsh …I so appologise

Because Blair created it!
Hey guys, I am amazed at the marketing genius of Blair, really impressed. He keeps the passion of collection these items going strong. I have a very humble collection. I am still awaiting my F500 to show up and must admit that this blog add’s excitement to see what arrives. No I am not being unrealistic about expecting a gold skull, but enjoyable none the less……….

Agreed, no other series even comes close. It is like he started another AM series, but all within one release of Firecrackers…..and now everyone is scampering to capture as many of these ones to complete this series as they can…….I wonder how he came up with that idea.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.
I just got my white base #293 today! :dance:
Good day all

One of the gold skull FCs is a white base? Wow. Bet that’ll bring some sick pricing. Who did you talk to that has access to one? Email me.

Sure, I’ll have to show him the “secret handshake” at Zest Fest. Jim, I hope your booth has a curtain

Don’t know if it’s in poor taste to quote so far back, but no need for *that* handshake
I tried to post an apology (twice!) for my comments to him but got hit for fire calls both times. I gave up. I was just tired and grouchy.

I think the real question is Why? Very unusual. That gold skull sure looks great on top of that little bottle!
