    As cool as I think it is. It's cheaper to buy a kilo horse...

    Scottsdale's fugliest fubar EVER. Whatever corporate genius fathered that turd will end up spending the rest of his career in a closet counting paper clips or else getting fired and working for that ex-SBSS jerk who's hiding out in Singapore these days.

    It's going to end up being such a short-lived but major disaster that it may actually end up carrying a little premium. Kind of like a Ford Edsel or a Yugo.

    I believe this would have been a runaway hit, if they would have just used a traditional tombstone shape...and finished the surface of the bar with course beadblasting ( Pretty much mimicking stone ) .

    They would have sold every single one they could get out of the door.

    I do like the pouch :lol:



    Even if they didn't beadblast it, it still would have looked better.....like Monarchs does....

    I actually like it! The tombstone Scottsdale bar that is.

    I hope they make 5oz & 10oz...my favorite sizes.

    Well I am sure when I have more money I will prefer 1kg or 100oz Bars better.

    10oz seems perfect and nice to hold.

    5oz and 10oz sizes have been announced. Anyone in Melbourne can drop into the office and see what the "dynamite crate" monster box looks like.

    The 5oz and 10oz will be available in the same box, 500oz at a time.

    The bar is actually the "Tombstone Nugget" - they are meant to represent nuggets, not tombstones - Tombstone is a place name in Arizona.

    The 5oz and 10oz look like the kilo one? Any pics?

    I think I'm the only fan in this thread of that design. If I was in Melbourne I'd have purchased one already.

    10oz is a lot longer relative to it's height. Everyone that's seen one has gone "oh wow", including a few of the haters :)

    I don't get the haters. I don't mind the look of them at all. I presume Goldstackers will be stocking them?

    I noticed the box when I was in there earlier this week. Very in-keeping with the theme ... can't imagine I'll ever be in the position to have one though :/

    Looks much shinier in that video then the picture. I like the darker look to it better. Still an interesting bar that I would never care for owning though.

    Your broken english is garbage. How can you find something interesting and not care to own it? That bar looks great. Nabullion Dynamite, you should at least respect other people on this forum.
