Someone ought to try to protect the name or something...

That might be difficult because Boba Fett and his likeness is a registered trademark of Lucasfilm, which is now, as everyone knows, owned by Disney. I'm surprised AVE and alien Vapors haven't received a cease and desist order thus far.

I have yet to get the legit BB, I'm not up that early in the mornings, maybe one day I will camp out on the site for it, Although I feel like if I ever get a order in I may as well buy 100ml even if I end up not liking it I should be able to trade it to someone either here or at a vape meet for something I would enjoy.

I have tried the knockoff alien's BB, truthfully I don't think its too bad :ohmy: not knowing what it was supposed to taste like and reading other people's reactions of legit BB I feel like it may be similar to me. It def has a Graham taste and other notes I have tasted and enjoyed but simply cant place. I'm actually vaping it right now at work. I think as a company they shouldn't be so conniving, but since I ordered it I really don;t mind it. :toast:

Lucas has traditionally been super tolerant of folks using his stuff, though now that Disney owns it, who knows. Finally got my order in, and just had to fill a tank. Yummy. Graham cracker-ish, maybe a hint of butterscotch? Gonna let the rest steep for a week or two, much as I hate waiting.

So I got my BB yesterday and had to try it right away. To me it tasted a bit like oatmeal raisin cookies, plain not frosted. It's not bad but not an ADV, at least not yet. Gonna let it steep for a while and see. The GJ was better out of the box to me. A light tobacco with a banana chip taste.

Just got back from a weeklong vake. I brought along five flavors, but ended up vaping Boba's exclusively the entire time. There is no substitute.

Having said that, El Kamino is a good vape, too.

I have some el kamino which I'm vaping hard right now and non vapers I've let try it absolutely love it. At least 10 analog smokers, some around 20 years old and others about 50 say my ego is the coolest thing and would give me money if I ordered them the right one. One blu smoker called it a "mans" ecig :) With that said definitely try el kamino. It's real good

As far as bobas bounty goes... placed my order a little while ago. Was supposed to be here July 18... USPS tracking site hasnt updated my package since the 16th and it's still not here. Pretty bummed :(

Seef, you'll get on Monday, I had the same thing happened to me many times..El Kamino is an excellent vape, I can only imagine if I let it steep for a couple of weeks or more, good stuff ;)

Well that's good to hear :) Got some Gorilla Juice coming as well.

At least they both will have a nice week or so steep in the mean time haha.

I tried a sample size of El Kamino and wasn't bowled over right away, but after setting a few days just hanging out in a ProTank it was really good. I ended up ordering another larger bottle before I ran out of the sample.

The larger bottle was slightly darker than the sample was when it arrived and tasted great straight out of the mail.

I decided to then get the largest size bottle they offer, and it is waiting for me in the cupboard.

This juice does seem to improve the longer it maturers.

This is probably e juice blasphemy, but after a couple days vaping Bobas, I really don't think I can stand it anymore. It's just too rich for me to vape more than once in a while I guess. It was starting to make me sick to my stomach.
I have heard that from others as well, but most finished up by saying "and when tried it again after a while, I fell in love and now I can't vape anything BUT Boba's!"
It will grow on you, Boba is such a Kameleon! :p

Same here, I was a little disappointed with the Boba's but it's not unvapable.

I'm digging the Gorilla Juice; and the Bee's Knees, to me, is awesome!

I actually pefer El Kamino over Boba's. A lot.

I prefer El Kamino too. It's actually AVAILABLE TO ORDER, PLUS you don't have to sacrifice your dignity to catch it before it sells out. Here lately all being able to buy it DOES is breed fanboy trolls anyway. Lol

I didn't like it fresh from the mail. I picked it up again today, after about 2 weeks of steeping and I like. Not enough to not vape anything else, but it has moved into my rotation.

Im vaping it for the first time right now and I honestly think they ran out and sent me the bees knees. All I taste is honey, maybe a little raisin and some tobacco. Its not bad, Its ok, don't know if I'd order this again, its really not that great, I like Legend more. I dont get what all the hype was about.

I just tried Boba's and Gorilla Juice for the first time yesterday. After months of waiting for them to be open I finally got my order and I have to say I really like them both!

Boba's is definitely an interesting flavor. It tasted a little different yesterday than it did today. The GJ has pretty much stayed the same.

I think I'm going to let them steep a bit and try them again. I have already vaped about 5ml of each today and I'm starting to feel guilty lol
