You'll love it! You literally couldn't pry the Goblin from my hands before the Cthulhu came along.
They're both very similar, ever so slightly wider airflow on the Goblin, and it's easier to assemble after building/wicking, but the top fill on the Cthulhu is a joy, both are now in my daily rotation [emoji1]
I really don't NEED another atomizer but there's one big thing about the Cthulhu that's making me consider purchase one... The fact that the center post is raised and there is no excess exposed insulator on the deck that can melt. I've been vaping with a SIlverplay the last few days with a .45ohm build on it and noticed that the insulator had warped just a bit where it was very slightly hanging over the air intake holes (and yes I had the coils raised up quite high, with the top of the coils about flush with the top of the posts). It was not actually burned or anything too bad but it still made me paranoid enough to take a razor to it to cut off the excess insulator that wasn't necessary, and I'm still going to be extra paranoid about putting anything lower than .5 builds on it.
The Cthulhu seems safer for those cloud chasing builds.
I just wish it fit with KF4 parts cuz I love using the evap chamber for easy deck access.

I'm loving my Cthulhu, but I still get leaks after a top fill. I know it is my technique, so I don't count it as a con. It does like the juice though!
Just received my Cthulhu in the mail yesterday and that thing is just amazing!
More cotton in the channels!
I wick mine by trimming the cotton flush with the deck and then guide the ends down the channels, so they reach about half way down.
That completely eliminated the leaking for me and not a dry hit in sight!
Well, I just had to bottom fill mine because the chimney was coming off with the top nut. So something to watch for.
OK, I'll try that. Thanks. Seems this thing doesn't need any wicking magic to make it "work", but to get it just right takes some practice. Still loving it though.
I'm having an issue with the copper center pin. It just turns infinitely in both directions, doesn't seem to be screwed into anything. I can't pull it out though.
Pre orders for the Goliath v2 may compete well with this one. I am still going to get one though. Found an authorized retailer for them about 15mins away from me. 
It took me a few times untill i got the cthulhu wicked proper... but if got it right it vapes like a dream. Anyone else using rayon?
When you guys use rayon, what diameter coil are you using, how much are you thinning the tails, and how far down are you placing them in the channels? I use max VG (on of the reasons I got this tank) and wasn't thrilled with rayon in .4 dual 26 gauge 2.5 mm build. Got some dry hits and a dryer vape. I've a Japanese cotton wick in now and its a bit better but still feel there is room to improve.
Does anyone own this tank and the Billow v2? Which do you prefer, considering picking this up but I already own the billow v2.
I'm using 2.4mm coils, 27g, 7 wraps each. Total resistance is about 0.5 ohm. I cut my tails into a V with a straight edge on the very bottom, and put about 2/3 down into the channels. I'm using a 70vg and it holds up to chain vaping.
I do almost the same. 2.5mm 26g 6 wrap. Cutting the ends of the wick into a v shake helps a lot...
