Devils aren't supposed to be pretty!

On the other hand, just wait until you see the silver core...you may just shed a tear.
My red is perfect as were my blue and green!

The bronze is pretty much prefect. Silver has some of the plating worn off the shaft for some reason.
Probably just customs checking to see if it would ignite.

Speaking of customs did anyone in the US have anything weird written on their package for the customs check? My most recent said "Metal Puzzle"
I think the previous shipments said something else.
My red packaging was pretty beat up when it got to me.

I received mine in three packages, if that counts for much. It had been separated by customs into "outer box" "inner box" and "metal object".

Woo.

I would have been so mad if they opened mine. That's part of the whole experience!

You guys have been "red" flagged by US Customs - doubt they will let your golds through now when the time comes :twisted:

How sad is that I opened the Red Obession (twice) and still can't get the Metal version opened :? :evil: So obviously they are not exactly the same, either that or I've lost my touch....

RE00016 is being sent to me as we speak, Revogirl told me the had held it for me. so I bought it on the spot, now that's customer service and loyalty!!
It's odd that EX openers can open the OB and vise verse. can't wait to try it out.
