Here it is chileheads, the Encore you’ve all been waiting for! Blair has gone above and beyond all expections and produced an extra special reserve for FREE. That’s right, free. Each order for a Firecracker 500 will recieve a free Encore Reserve. That’s per order/person – for instance if you ordered 5 Firecrackers, you’ll get 1 Encore. It’s not per Firecracker 500 ordered, it’s per order.
Blair’s Encore Reserve
- Here are the facts:
- These bottles have been given free to each order of Firecracker 500 (from Blair). However, since only 500 Firecrackers were made available, it’s safe to say that less then 500 Encore Reserves exist.
- These are not numbered, but they are signed.
- These are not for resale.
- These are offically the last of the last of his reserve bottles.
- Inside chileheads will find a dried habanero powder.
- 30 of these special reserves are completely different. These bad boys are topped with purple wax with a yellow drizzle across the top.
- The 30 Special Encore Reserves are numbered 1-30.

now that is way cool
That is one kick*** set of bottles…. Thanks again Blair …….
Sweetness, a whole nother reserve. Blair has taken it to the HNL (hole nother level).
Awesomeness. Thanks blair.
And what exactly will happen when one does show up on ebay???
Like free stuff hasnt been sold there before. They are not numbered so how would Blair know who was selling it?
Im not getting one anyway, so its just a question!
[Comment ID #42679 Quote]
Well Blair does have the address of everyone that was shipped a bottle. These can be sold on eBay (not much anyone can do about that) and I’m sure someone will sell thiers within the week. But by placing the sticker on there (which he can, since it was free) Blair is hoping to discourage those people who would sell the bottles from selling the bottles.
He has put a lot of time into these freebies and would be upset to find one on eBay (or any other retail website for that matter). These are for the chileheads out there, his diehard collectors & fans.
Well blow me timbers….
Blair even made a distinct label for the encore reserve.
Thats wicked!! Once again Blair delivers – thanks man 🙂
On another note, are the Encore Reserves numbered? Be interesting to see just how many there actually are…
Hello All, I am very happy to see these very special bottles Starting to find ChiliHead Homes around the Globe…..As far as comments on selling the “Encore” If you sell it …What would happen???…Nothing, but I made these bottles free of charge as a gift to my Chilipals so I would be surprised if they are sold….Not to mention the whole Karma of it…….Enjoy the Bottles my Friends …..All my Best…FEEL ALIVE….Have a Happy 4th ….. Your Chilipal BLAIR
[Comment ID #42684 Quote]
No there not. do you really need to know, just enjoy what Blair did. He went over the top this time.
[Comment ID #42686 Quote]
Just wondering cause you know you will see them there soon, thats all.
And they will fetch a hefty price.
[Comment ID #42686 Quote]
Another kick**s job, thanks Blair and you also have a happy 4th…..Nice timing on the firecracker 500 just in time for the 4th……mmmmm… was that planned.
[Comment ID #42686 Quote]
I guess it would kinda be like re-gifting- yeah it’s done by cheap few, but it’s really in bad taste. And if the Original Gifter finds out……pretty embarassing. 😳
[Comment ID #42687 Quote]
Yep agree with that – dont care if they are or aren’t numbered, just curious, that be all…. you know what they say about curiosity and the cat I guess though 🙂
[Comment ID #42687 Quote]
Cant imagine that anyone wouldn’t enjoy what Blair has done there, except perhaps those folk that buy purely to sell for a profit, but who cares about them anyway 😉
I’d bid on one.
Beautiful!! I love it.
One question though: How can you legally prevent someone from selling something on eBay?
Of course, I won’t be selling mine, but still…..the question still stands.
no. Unless you had a contract.
Another thought: I think he means *VENDORS* can’t sell these. The aftermarket should be fair game. There’s really no way to prevent trades or eBay sales. It’s just that they can’t be marketed, sold, etc through stores.
[Comment ID #42693 Quote]
Can’t say I wouldn’t… thankfully, (hopefully) I won’t have to though 🙂
[Comment ID #42697 Quote]
It’s simple. He ask of you not to resale…………;…..
Ok, fair enough. That’s just not *exactly* what it said on the front page….it said “no selling these puppies on eBay”. That sounds like an order, not a suggestion. 😉
Just curious.
True about the karma. If you sell the freebie in your next life you’ll have a stomach problem and will not be able to eat even Tabasco. Beware karma is a bitch.
I think the gift is fantastic and here is one that will be staying with its rightful place at the end of the Blair Collectible Shelf.
Why anyone that collects would want to sell a gift, since there is only going to be a few (one per customer). Not a true collector in my view.(only my feelings) The people who bought more than one you still will
make their profit on resales.(of FC 500)
[Comment ID #42682 Quote]
Blow me down…shiver me timbers. 🙂
Once again the “Master” Blair has outdone himself. I agree with the whole Karma aspect of those that would try to sell such an honorable gift. I for one would like to say thank-you to Blair for such an un-expected treasure. I know it will look great on the shelf!!!!
[Comment ID #42695 Quote]
There are ways to make sure you don’t resell it. I mean Blair has the names of everyone that ordered the f500 and received the encore. Someone sells and the next time a reseve is out and suddenly you just missed out or your order is lost or you just get banned……There are ways many ways. Besides why would you sell anyhow ??? There is only one encore per order, so if someone ordered say 10 that is only one encore going out so who knows how many there will be out there only one man at the moment and that is Blair…
This is very, very nice. Thanks Blair. You are amazing in my book.
[Comment ID #42714 Quote]
I agree, thanks Blair
Holy Encore Batman! Just saw and read all this…Frick’n AWESOME YO! After the day I’ve been having, guess this would be Karma paying me back 😀 It’s gonna be Christmas in July thanks to Blair (I won’t tell Santa that you’ve outdone and outclassed him) 😉
BTW Blair, love the graphics on the labels…my hat’s off to your artist.
Hey Ryan, you made the 2000 club! Congrats
[Comment ID #42701 Quote]
Exactly!!
Such a simple gesture is hard for some people to respect.
That’s the best news I’ve heard all day, and I only had to work a half-day 🙂
Like everyone else has said, thanks Blair. You’re the man. Can’t wait to get mine!
Yeah – those graphics are good, but I know someone better 😉
I don’t want to know the handshake for the over 2000 post club :shocked:
[Comment ID #42695 Quote]
You can’t. He just doesn’t want a gift to be resold. there are ALLOT of resellers out there that will sell, or people selling their collections because they loose interest in the hobby. The point I think more so was, they were not for resale, in other words, he isn’t selling them, and Jungle jims for example was not selling them. That if for example (I use JJ because i don’t know others) Jungle jim ordered 10 bottles for sake of arguement, he i think will get one, as it states there was one bottle per order not 1:1 ratio of these. Jungle Jims would not be inclined to sell it as they are good friends/business relationship. You know.
Just so all are clear, I started to write this an hour ago when the thread was small and just got free’d up at work to finish it 🙂 so my point is probably beaten to death by the time I hit say it LOL. Have A FRICKING SUPER FANTASTIC WEEKEND EVERYONE IT IS MY HOTTIES BIRTHDAY THIS WEEKEND SO WE WILL BE OUT AND NOT ONLINE MUCH 🙂
CHEERS, PEACE AND BE SAFE!!!!!!!!
[Comment ID #42726 Quote]
pmac that was good hope everone got it. And yes was ok to use Jungle Jim’s as a sample Peace all have a great weekend. Bret

[Comment ID #42686 Quote]
THANKS BLAIR!
Everyone have a safe and Happy 4th of July!
Don’t forget about those who have/are fighting for our freedom!! Without the sacrifices of others, none of this would be possible.
[Comment ID #42730 Quote]
Well, its not really a “hand” shake…but there is definitely some shaking going on 😈
Thanks for the gift Blair! Hope everyone has a happy 4th!
Sweeeeeet, but is the T-59 gonna be in this bottle or the new one?
[Comment ID #42734 Quote]
I believe Blair mentioned a while back that it will be in the new bottle, but I could be wrong.
Wow this was alot more than I expected when he said extra special gift!!! Most awesome Blair!
[Comment ID #42732 Quote]

[Comment ID #42794 Quote]
Lucky you!!!!! I’d probably still be out there for a little suile if my laptop didn’t die.
yeah I just got my laptop about a month ago and I love it….It is nice to sit outside and blog by the fire
[Comment ID #42796 Quote]
Yeah… definitely nice. Laptop battery was half dead before I started! Then I was using my blackberry, but its a pain on that.
Roasted some nice marshmellows, did some hot tubbing, nice and relaxing!
Yeah I may hop in the tub later also, Temp. is just perfect for outside play.
[Comment ID #42798 Quote]
Sounds like we’re having similiar nights!

I hear you! Have a great and safe weekend. I’m going to crash now…. Talk to you later Mr Freeze.
[Comment ID #42803 Quote]
You also have great weekend………. Chat at ya later…………..
Ok,
My entry is in. Now gotta spend time tommorrow catching up on the blog. Been a while since I have posted, so I have some catching up to do.
Good night if anyone is still up.
Wow, just noticed that Cheffy passed me today on the top 20 list. Can’t believe it was just today after I was away for so long, and I don’t have that many posts. Ryan over 2k now, wow! Congrats man!
[Comment ID #42681 Quote]A few probably will show up on ebay won’t they?
[Comment ID #42684 Quote]It says in the facts about the bottle further up. They’re not numbered but there will be 400-500 encores.
[Comment ID #42687 Quote] there’s 400-500 of them
[Comment ID #42698 Quote]i’d bid too!
[Comment ID #42734 Quote]wo,wo,wo ANOTHER RESERVE ALREADY!!!! WHAT THE HEC IS A T-59????
[Comment ID #42837 Quote]
Yeah I know – should’ve seen that, but I was too excited at the time… hey ho, I cant wait for my Firecracker 500 to turn up and would be more than happy even without the Encore… thats just an awesome bonus!
Blair, I must thank you for putting some happiness into my weekend. Me and The Createss go to Montana every year for a week of just getting away at a working ranch outside of Kalispell. We had made it a long weekend trip this time around as The Createss recently had pins removed from her wrist, so the whole horse thing was out, so we were planning on just meeting up with everyone, sitting around the campfire, etc. Well, due to Continental Airlines being the “Gene Pool of Cranial Rejects”, our confirmed, paid for flight was overbooked, and our weekend has been blown to pieces (1st vacation for me in 2 years). Upon seeing this present from Blair, I now have a smile on my face. Thanks Blair.
Frrrrrreeee ! WOOOOW !
These bottles kicks major ass !!!!!!!
[Comment ID #42842 Quote]
Man that stinks….. sorry to hear that!
[Comment ID #42842 Quote]
Forgot to add… glad the Mrs is on the mend!!!!!!!!
[Comment ID #42842 Quote]
That’s just not right Creator, sorry about that 🙂
There always is a bright side though, now you have extra time to make more Habby 😉
just looking out for you huvason
Morning all…. Hope last night was rockin’ for all… another beautiful day here in ole’ Indiana… Man it is nice to have a few days off…Creator glad to hear all is well with the Mrs. the ranch will still be there…..
[Comment ID #42869 Quote]
Hey MrFreeze – ever hit that hot tub last night!
[Comment ID #42866 Quote]
You’re looking out for US…. 😀
Have you found the 55 gallon drum yet? I’m sure the creator has one, but lord knows what was in it 😀
[Comment ID #42870 Quote]
No, got sitting around the fire and just got sleepy so I crashed at about midnight……..
[Comment ID #42872 Quote]
Well there’s always tonight!!!!!!
[Comment ID #42873 Quote]
Yeah, it is suppose to storm tonight.. I hope it holds off though
I think it will be interesting to find out the total number of encores that are out there just so we can keep our “Blair” counts up to date.
Do I smell a contest coming hehehe. Closest one get an encore with red whit blue drizzled all over it 🙂
OK just saw it and ran with it again.
Please note the typo on Blair website is fixed too. 🙂
The whole yellow and Black with the skull kinda makes me think of a Pissed off Giant Bumble Bee from hell come to seek revenge on … well i dunno thats all i got.
Well I am off to see Superman Returns in IMAX 3D can’t wait, got an hour drive to get there, but it’ll be worth it i am sure 😀
“Creator glad to hear all is well with the Mrs. the ranch will still be there…..”
Thanks Mr. Freeze. It’s a shame you can;t get mad in the airport anymore, all it does is get you a nice shiny pair of bracelets and a cavity search.
“Forgot to add… glad the Mrs is on the mend!!!!!!!!”
Thanks Huv. Yeah, she’ll be at the next Defcon Day on time this time around.
“That’s just not right Creator, sorry about that
There always is a bright side though, now you have extra time to make more Habby”
Yeah, tell me about it. We had been counting down the days for months now. As for the Habby, I think you’ll like what I have come up with. To tell you the truth, I’m having a Hell of a time finding GOOD fresh horseradish root.
“Have you found the 55 gallon drum yet? I’m sure the creator has one, but lord knows what was in it ”
LOL!!! One hint, it has a heartbeat, and is becoming quite adept at rudimentary movement. 🙂
Hey Creator when is the 16oz. of DefCon #2 coming out ??? I keep checking your site and the last update I saw was the 20th. Just wondering and waiting I want to order some……
““Have you found the 55 gallon drum yet? I’m sure the creator has one, but lord knows what was in it ”
LOL!!! One hint, it has a heartbeat, and is becoming quite adept at rudimentary movement”
As long as the Habby tastes good, I dont care what else was (or is) in that drum 😉
that’s awesome. I didn’t realise that the special gift would be so special. Thanks sooo much Blair
Think anyone will open it for the habanero powder? If they do they’re stupid
[Comment ID #42735 Quote]It is in the new bottle . I cant wait for it to come out. Trouble is If its only at the fiery foods show Itll be hard to get here in the uk.
[Comment ID #42711 Quote]
as they are not numbered though, unless someone knows your ebay user i.d, it would be quite easy to sell I’m guessing (not that I am going to – definately not!). I was going out today to fetch a display cabinet to get rid of all the brown boxes (full mainly of Blair’s) on my bedroom floor. I think I’d better buy a bigger cabinet now so I’ll have to ait for my bro’s van. My car is only tiny. lol
[Comment ID #42997 Quote]
good problem to have matt:)
[Comment ID #42944 Quote]
Same question here. I was going to place an order this morning but saw the message on the front page of your site about the release of the 16 oz. bottles. Didn’t want to wait, but ……..
[Comment ID #42944 Quote]
The Monster bottles are due in on Wednesday. Give me a day or two after that to add them to the website. As I said, there will be 200 of them, each signed and numbered, just to see how these puppies sell.
[Comment ID #43028 Quote]
See previous comment. 🙂
[Comment ID #43036 Quote]
Wasn’t it the same comment? 😀
[Comment ID #43021 Quote]
hey brian, I’m still working on those pictures for you. The sauces I purchased from you have been devoured (apart from one). My girlfriend has taken a liking to the lavas and has even eaten my signed ones 🙄 I may be calling on your services again soon if that’s ok with you (and buy a box full too…….my brother likes them also)
Again…nice job Blair!!!!!!! I think one of my favorite problems to have is finding room in “the cabinet”. That will make 113 items.
[Comment ID #43154 Quote]
I’m having that problem – just I haven’t got a cabinet yet…….I’ve been looking but now think I may need a bigger one. lol
[Comment ID #43154 Quote]
[Comment ID #43160 Quote]
Hey Blair- I’m seeing a trend here, I am also on a Cabinet Hunt! Your 8 Bottle Reserve Collector’s Case is pretty cool, maybe it’s time to expand the “Displaying” angle of the Biz!
Check with Chris at perfectly pickled, I think he makes them….at least I know he has them.
I want to make one myself but haven’t got the time now. I have to put all my effort into my job I’ve got so they offer me a placement after unt
I meant uni
I presume Blair will be keeping one of each type of firecracker so that’s one less white one too. Has Blair ever posted his own collection? It’d be awesome to see it
Firecracker 500 on eBay now Opening bid $500 #34 blue base, I Hope I am not repeating someone else.
[Comment ID #43286 Quote]
It would be stunning to say the least I am sure, primarily to see all one number collection and to see all the prototypes/test bottles he has that no one outside the company or circle of friends has seen before.
[Comment ID #43318 Quote]
yup. it includes the Encore reserve too….
eBay Link.
[Comment ID #43318 Quote]
What did you search for, I can’t find it.
You’re post didn’t show up till after I posted, look at the time difference too.
[Comment ID #43318 Quote]
Nick has them for $299.99!!!
[Comment ID #43318 Quote]
whoa, it took less than 2 weeks 😐
[Comment ID #43381 Quote]
But does not include the encore….i guess they would be $250 each then
[Comment ID #43391 Quote]
I am shure there will be more
[Comment ID #43321 Quote]
I think you can convince Blair to let us see his collection pmac. If not, can you have him send me some pics. LOL
[Comment ID #43409 Quote]
Lemme tell you something about people in general. (everyone knows this already but…) When it comes to their personal space, they are guarded. There are a lot of people that will not/do not want to show their collections homes personal belongings to others. It’s private. Have you ever walked up somewhere and someone just says “whats your name” most peoples initial reaction is quite honestly, whats it to you. 🙂
But we don’t say that, but our guard is up we get a little defensive. Sometimes if i don’t know the person at all and there is no reason to tell my name I will lie :)… anyways a little off track. However, something tells me we would never see inside the walls of the Blair solitude. I wonder if he keeps it at home or he seperates home from work that much and leaves it all at work in an office or showroom. We may never know, but Inquiring minds want to know!
god I am longwinded sometimes
Comment ID #43392 Quote]
I better raise my price I’am at 159.99.
[Comment ID #43445 Quote]
have you got any with white bases? 😉
# 46 (Blue base) is here.
[Comment ID #43489 Quote]
Don’t know yet. still have not open all of them.
[Comment ID #43154 Quote]
Hey, eman is that 113 signed items or just Blair items in general ?????????
#39 Blue base arrived today, very very satisfied, it is included in my
display.
Hey HenryK, what time did you get your order in? Just wondering so I can kinda predict what number I will get.
[Comment ID #43577 Quote]
AAAAAAA!!!! Havent got mine yet!!!!! VA is closer than FL. 🙂
[Comment ID #43597 Quote]
I hear ya, I am waiting as well…………….
[Comment ID #43597 Quote]
Scott you will probably get yours first- don’t rub it in when you do! 😛
DK yours is pack and on the way.#1 white base is that ok………….Man that would get some people smacking themself in there head for not sending in something. DK sorry it is a red base #under 55. Hope that ok.
Jim were do you want me to send yours. addy on your card. Let me know.
Blair call me today and told me that Nick email him that someone paid 750.00 on ebay for f/500 and the encore. Was that right. Then he email the sellers addy so I can go break his arms for the encore.LOL That would be fun. That brings back memories of old days.
[Comment ID #43596 Quote]
It was during the first 10-20 min that it was ordered, during all the
confusion of Blair’s site overload.
[Comment ID #43603 Quote]
Forgot to add for those who don’t know my area, it is in TENN
8 miles from Ft Campbell, Ky.
I can’t believe someone would sell the encore so quick. Well, yes I can because some people are just like that, I guess. Probably the same person who’d hock a birthday gift from their Mother.
[Comment ID #43603 Quote]
Cool, same here. Order was in within 10 minutes.
[Comment ID #43601 Quote]
Same place you sent the check works out just fine 🙂 Yes- that’s the same address as is on the card and on most every bottle of mine. Thanks again!!
[Comment ID #43602 Quote]
That’s a fact buy it now $750.00 #34 / encore.
[Comment ID #43607 Quote]
Anyone thinks that they can get away selling a encore. Blair can track them, He planted a tiny micro chip in them. That way I can come knock on your door and tell you that your were wrong and break your arms.
[Comment ID #43607 Quote]
Had a nice long chat with Blair today also. Whatta guy 🙂 Going to put the StepUP link on his site- whooeee!! Pretty disappointed that someone would sell a ‘gift’ but takes all kinds I suppose.
We have East and West coast cover. The North and south cover were with hours of you the encore seller.
Ok I’am bored. Ryan I need help your plots are so much better.
Talked to Blair today too. Super nice guy. :cheers:
Thanks for everything bro.
[Comment ID #43613 Quote]
Well hopefully it has been to Canada by now!
[Comment ID #43600 Quote]
Now that was just WRONG! 😉
Thanks Bret, # and color doesn’t matter. I am just honored and happy to receive one at all. I really had no expectations when I sent in that entry. I’m still amazed I’m getting a Fircracker 500. Can’t wait to see it.
But still, that was very wrong! 😉

They are not all signed. That is not really a big thing to me because I know if I asked, I could have everyone of them signed. Blair and I have a great relationship and I consider my collection part of his also. It’s funny, when we talk now its hardly ever about hot sauce!! It’s about kids.
[Comment ID #43621 Quote]
Hey eman, I’ll sign them for ya bud!!
cool, i have the silver pen 🙂
Whats up man, I haven’t talked to you in awhile- all good? How’s the new little bundle of joy 🙂
Life is good!!! The daddy thing is cool. I am holding her right mow….it’s hard to type with 1 hand.
Every time i get on here there is no one else on or i am working on the orders for the TEAM HSB shirts.
[Comment ID #43621 Quote]
Cool, I was just curious. I also have quite a few of Blairs item that are not signed as well.
How’s things over there?
Got #47 red base today.
[Comment ID #43694 Quote]
I left a note on the other thread but: I’m glad your wait is over.
You were right about the number being close.

Hey Bret is you have a white base let me know please. I haven’t got my package yet so I don’t know what I’ve got but I’m on a hunt. lol
[Comment ID #43603 Quote]
was that before or after the email was sent out?
The UPS truck stoped in my yard,……. and then drove away. I know I have at least one package in there, he better come back.
[Comment ID #43726 Quote]
I ordered before Nick even put it on the Blog. Pretty much orderd about 10 minutes after it was on Blair’s site. I figured I would get a lower number but I think the guys before me orderd way more than one.
The funny thing is that I orderd about 5 minutes before my brother and he got #46 and I got #47.
Well, I guess UPS didn’t pick up the package at the local facility, that ticks me off.
[Comment ID #43737 Quote]
I don’t believe that Mr Lazar pays particular attention to the order the numbers go out in. I got most of the last of the 16 mils yet the couple I opened were in the 700’s. Just ’cause you’re the first to order, doesn’t guarantee that you’ll get the lowest number I think- it *does* help your odds of getting one though 😉
Have very many of us got our sets yet?? Just curious as I am anxiously awaiting my treasure.
Not yet.
Nope, hoping today.
I’m still waiting as well. Haven’t made it to Texas yet as far as I know. If Loco Luna is out there, have you got yours?
[Comment ID #43912 Quote]
Haven’t made it south of Indy yet either.
Jim – you have mail (AGAIN) – plus mine came Monday 😀
I’m in Jersey and my porch is still empty.
I got my 3 reserves on the 3rd
Absolute madness. 🙂 (in a good way) The beyond death bottle just went for $810 on eBay WoW!!!
[Comment ID #43933 Quote]
Man Vin Deisel I didnt know you collected Hot Sauce.
[Comment ID #44064 Quote]
That is crazy….If I had $810 to spend it would be on the charity bottles…
[Comment ID #44066 Quote]
Amen MrFreeze. I agree 100%
[Comment ID #44066 Quote]
[Comment ID #44069 Quote]
I concur.
That is kind of a no brainer………….
Who won the Beyond Death???
LaneS an HSB’er
That signed Japanise Import is still on Ebay.
yeah I emailed MattUK he was looking for one so I thought I should give him the heads up.
I hope he gets it. I would buy it for him to pay me, but what if i get screwed and it turnes out 1. he already got one or 2. he doesnt want it for some reason 🙂 That would suck.
[Comment ID #44090 Quote]
A fellow HSBer is selling that Japanese bottle. He’s a pretty trustworthy guuy (no its not me 🙂 )
huvason, I know who it is, that is not the issue (of course not), I just do not want to have to sit on it, I have made some pretty substantial purchases lately and every penny counts now. Otherwise I would have bought it and just waited and if he said no kept it for my collection.
CK is top notch 🙂 it ain’t him. Its the $$ outlay for something i don’t want to end up sitting on. I am just not sure if MatUK would say no for any reason, I do know for a FACT he has been looking but I do not know his budget.
[Comment ID #44094 Quote]
Chris is habanero_pa? Wonderful.
[Comment ID #44095 Quote]
Look at ryan putting clues together and diplaying for all the world to see 🙂
pmac pats Ryan on the head, good boy!!! 🙂 Did you figur it all out on yer own or did the Mrs help LOL
j/k Ryan all said in lighthearted fun!
you see CK = my new cologne the mrs bought me and i was referring to that as top notch.
Way to get those clues mixed up 🙂
hey other bloggers, do you think he bought that???
Depends on if he was wearing his helmet at the time.
[Comment ID #44096 Quote]
LMAO smart ass 😛 I used to wonder who habanero_pa was, but never bothered to ask, then I just stopped giving a damn. But hey, thanks for the tip, pmac 😀 Yes, I did it all on my own (the wife is at work)[Comment ID #44098 Quote]
Eternity is some nice stuff (one of my favs), did I buy into the line of BS? If it makes you feel good…sure 😉
[Comment ID #44099 Quote]
Helmet is dead…daughter fell off her scooter and cracked the mighty pinkness…have to get a new one.
[Comment ID #44101 Quote]
As long as the helmet did its job, then all is good. How is she?
[Comment ID #44100 Quote]
Nah, I feel the same, soft and cuddley. Well if that is your idea of good, then yeap I feel good 🙂
[Comment ID #44101 Quote]
[Comment ID #44102 Quote]
I agree all in fun, i am a smart ass, but we hope the daughter is ok of course!
She’s fine. She has been with one set of grandparents for almost a month now. She’ll be home on Friday. She didn’t have a hard fall. The pink part of the helmet was very thin just for looks. The rest of it is still intact, wearable, and opperational
ahem…ok back to the topic….. 😉
[Comment ID #44104 Quote]
You should throw the helmet out and get a new one. There may be damage to the helmet that you cannot see.
[Comment ID #44108 Quote]
On that note, I really want the white base with the special encore. 🙂
[Comment ID #44090 Quote]
Thanks pmac I just got the email – I’ve been in Cardiff all weekend in my new house but haven’t got internet so have to go without. Just wondered but what’s this about a different encore?
All we know is that 30 encores look very different.
My Encore reserve has two different color yellow waxes on it, does this mean it is one of the special ones?? In these pics shown here, both yellows appear to be identical.
[Comment ID #44518 Quote]
I think the one in the picture also has two different wax colors just hard to tell in the pic. The first layer of yellow is a little lighter…..But I could be wrong…. Although when Bliar says total different I am thinking different colors or possibly a different bottle ???? Just a thought….
[Comment ID #44524 Quote]
You could surely be right, that’s what I was thinking also – but after a closer look mine is definitely different that the one in these photos and the one sold recently on ebay. The first yellow is like the one in the pics (and the 6am/LeMillion) and the top layer is more “golden” maybe? It’s a wax color I haven’t seen w/Blair before.
[Comment ID #44525 Quote]
I have the same encore , but I think the top layer looks like the yellow used on recent 3am’s the signed but not numbered ones……..Maybe Blair will give us a clue as to what is different……
Yes, I’m stupid! It is the 3am yellow wax. I don’t know why I didn’t realize that. It is different, but I was also expecting a more dramatic difference – something more obvious…. who knows!
[Comment ID #44527 Quote]
I thnik everyone that hasn’t recieved there f500 and encore are hoping for the same. White base f500 and or a different encore. I still have a chance and I am praying I will get one or the other…..
In the firecracker 500 thread Blair said that the different Encores were “Very Different” so I’m guessing that’s not what I have.
[Comment ID #44529 Quote]
Yeah – I’m sure we’ll definately know when they “special” ones come out.
[Comment ID #44529 Quote]
I am leaning toward his new bottle that he has coming out. That difinitely would be very different…………..
Oh wait – did I fail to mention that my encore bottle is filled with 16mil crystals and came mounted on a foot tall throne made entirely of gold skulls? 🙂
[Comment ID #44532 Quote]
yeah you little bit of info slide (lol)
[Comment ID #44532 Quote]
Yours too??????? I actualy measured it a 1.5 feet tall. Has one big ass display box it came with too. 🙂
[Comment ID #44534 Quote]
Cool
Mine is taller than my house. Does that make it special?
[Comment ID #44518 Quote]
Something tells me that if you got a different one you would know right away. There would be no guessing. However I have been known to be wrong before.
[Comment ID #44532 Quote]
And I would have been inclined to believe this up until the throne part then I new it was rubbish 🙂
pmac my encore has a bow tie on it would that make diffrent LOL
Did you just take the bow out of your hair and tie up the Encore!!!?!?!?!
No fair he is cheating!
[Comment ID #44541 Quote]
That’s what I was thinking.
Is it just me or does none of blair’s reserves have green wax? I like green.
[Comment ID #44546 Quote]
Ok but don’t tell anyboby.
#67 Red arrived today with A Regular Encore. My birth year nice 🙂
I can honestly say I was extatic to hear it arrived. My Hottie ended up opening it up for me I couldn’t wait to get home 🙂
Thanks Blair and Karin. Truely Happy Customer here!!!
can’t wait to get mine!!
[Comment ID #44767 Quote]
Ditto!
Wake up little Bret wake up your were dreaming and thanking Blair for #1 white base f500 and #500 red base f500 and gold wax encore. Darn they had to wake me up.
[Comment ID #44779 Quote]
LOL!
poor Bret, maybe some dreams don’t come true 🙁
[Comment ID #44779 Quote]
Wow, Bret you got a #1 also. Cool, but mine is a blue base (LOL)……………………………I wish……
Come to think of it, mine has a gold skull. 😛
[Comment ID #44806 Quote]
Thanks
[Comment ID #44813 Quote]
I saw that in another dream. Oh wait I can’t tell about that one.
[Comment ID #44782 Quote]
Yeah except I am willing to bet he isn’t dreaming!
..
[Comment ID #44816 Quote]
pmac that’s not nice. Yes it is a dream and if I get #1 F500 our a white base I will sell to you for what I paid Blair for it. Deal…..By the way I paid Blair 5000.00 for the #1 and 2000.00 for the white. HeHe. But for real, deal on the first part OK.
Wouldn’t one of these look cool with white wax, gold drizzle and a gold skull!!
On MY collector’s shelf of course!
[Comment ID #44816 Quote]
[Comment ID #44816 Quote]
somebody make a bet with pmac.
[Comment ID #44820 Quote]
I am just wondering what the new bottle will look like ????????????
[Comment ID #44824 Quote]
yeah, me too.
Didn’t pmac get some kind of prototype a few weeks ago? I could be confused…
[Comment ID #44826 Quote]
was a 6AM test bottle. Not the new bottle. Picture is on the blog in a topic somewhere.
[Comment ID #44833 Quote]
Yeah, I saw the pic and a nice one at that………just waiting for Zest Fest so I can have a T-59
[Comment ID #44835 Quote]
It’s going to be sweet.
[Comment ID #44835 Quote]
I am so sad that I cannot go to the Zest Fest! I talked it over with the fiancee and apparently the wedding IS the more important event on that Saturday, and the deposit to the reception hall IS NOT refundable. I was really hoping to meet some of you great people! 🙂
Side Note 🙂 If anyone would get me a T-59 as a wedding gift I will drive to wherever they are in my tux and pay them in person (payment would be in wedding gifts of course)!!
Well, Adam, some things do have to take priority…
We’ll miss you, but as with the Chicago Cubs, there’s always next year!
[Comment ID #44913 Quote]
Hmmmm, perhaps a couple drops of chloroform in the bridal veil, and you could alope in Dallas at the event.
I just wanted to make a comment on the yellow wax for the Regular Encore. I am sorry if it has been mentione already I didn’t feel like reading through all the posts to see 🙂
I have a pair of the Regular encore’s sitting in front of me and I just realized that the wax on each is different (very noticable)
The One has the Yellow from the LeMillion, and the other has the Yelloeeish orange from the 3AM. So if this is a repeat I am sorry but now you have something to buy sell trade to get if all the different bases are something you strive for.
Thanks 🙂
