How come some people get the pouch, while others don't? I didn't get one with mine. It would have been really nice to get one.
Tornado Pouch?

Mine was in the bottom of the box under all the Styrofoam. I didn't see it at first.
Styrofoam? I think maybe different people are packaging these... mine came in a padded envelope.
I didn't get one either but I never would have used it so no biggie.
Btw, off topic but I keep wondering how TW schooled janty so badly on selling these things.
Over that last month I've seen about 100 sold through the Janty site but 95% of the time they are sold out while at the same time watching TW keep theirs stocked up and selling like mad. (currently on the site there are 650 starter kits and that is just black)
Not to mention beating them out of the gate on colors, cones, 5 packs and other accessories and having a better price.
Way to stomp all over the manufacturer TW, pretty entertaining stuff to watch I have to admit.
In Jantys defense maybe it looks that way because they are filling back orders or something.

Janty doesn't manufacture them, They (Mik) designed them. They are manufactured by Joye.
TW has 2 or 3 shops and Janty has what, 5 or 5? shops?
Also, Janty gets the better batts as you can see from returns. Less with them, more with TW..

My point was not the quality but how strange it is to me that the original designer has not been able to have more than 90 in stock at one time.
Back in Jan they had 90 or so, they sold out and on the site said to expect more in on Feb 2nd, that fell through and a week (or so) later they got another 90 in and sold through those and that was it... that was literally all that i saw them ever have on the site.
they were sold out again almost this entire month and still do not have them.
On top of that there has never been so much as one single sliver or white eGo on the site ever.
In the meantime I have watched the TW stock go from 200 to sold out, then up to 400-something then down to 100 then back up a few days ago to 650.
and that is just in black, i have also watched them slowly get rid of hundreds of platinum and white tornados also along with all the various accessories.
Janty did manage to get auto batts but that was a pretty minor victory in the scheme of things.
Now as far as quality goes, yeah more tornados have been returned I know that to be 100% fact....why do I know this when I have no access to the company files and records? Because if one company sells 200 and the other one sells 1500 then it's a pretty sure bet that they will have more returns.
Anyway that is totally off my point which is how in Gods name was it possible for Janty to get schooled so badly when they were the designers???
Were they using production capabilities to produce other products like the stick V3? Did the people who made the decision about production runs not believe it would sell?
Now really this is a pretty stupid question that I have and I apologize for it because we all know Janty makes $$$ on it no matter if there is a Mr. Wicked engraved on the base or the starwars rebel symbol but my morbid curiosity has gotten the better of me.
Come on somebody in the know tell us what happened the curiosity is killing me!!!

I got my pouch with mine. Simple pouch, could do without, but it was a nice gesture by TW.
I got a pouch with mine, but don't feel like you're missing out. It's so oversized that it would better fit a machete. I was so stoked when I got my Tornado that I misplaced and lost the pouch during the first day.

A combo machete / Tornado pouch. I need one of those .
While I agree that the pouch was a nice gesture from TW, I don't think I'll ever use mine for my Tornado. It could hold a few Tornadoes (maybe a machete or two as well) inside, but with the manual switches I'd be afraid of burning up an atomizer in the thing since I like to carry my stuff fully assembled. I think I might use it for holding a bunch of smaller bottles of e-liquid and see how that pans out. If I don't like it I'll probably give it away. I guess my point is that you shouldn't feel left out if you didn't get a pouch... it's nothing special.
I like my pouch! I keep all my extras in it while I'm out and about, but I do put all this stuff in my very very large purse. It keeps my extra battery and atomizer from getting lost in the depths of my purse.. I didn't expect it to be in the box, so I was happy with it. It is very very long, but when you have two tornados assembled they fit nicely. Unfortunately, I always have one in my mouth, so I never really get to use it for that.
