There were people here begging for the cards the minute the news broke about special trading cards being included in the little monster boxes.  I gave 1 of mine away but kept the other since I got one of the special cards...maybe it will be worth something someday, just like the monster/actor dress boxes. 

Jim, I've smoked the Baby Face and Mini Mum.  Thought the Face was very similar to the original, which I loved.  Of course we can't compare the Mum yet, but I really enjoyed this stick.  I clipped the Frank, took a cold draw, and decided that it definitely needed some down time before smoking.

I'm never distrac....oh, wait..a squirrel.  LOL!!

I think Steve (randomhere1090) here smoked 4 of them so far, and mentioned that he will be sitting on the rest for a few months.

Sorry, late to the party!

I've smoked one of each, and the Boris now.  NOW, I know the Boris isn't part of the collection, but it's by far the best smoke out of these Minis.

In terms of the 5 that came out of the box...
1)  Face - Great sweetness, leather, oak, rich chocolate.  A really good cigar.
2)  Mummy - Cedar, pepper, some chocolate notes.  A good cigar.
3)  Drac - Nice maduro sweetness with rich flavors and spice. A good cigar.
4)  Frank - Very spicy and grassy.  Some rich notes to it.  An OK cigar.
5)  Wolf - Some sweetness, spice, pepper.  Better than original.  An OK cigar.

After trying them all, the rest (will have 2 of each left) are going for a nap to see what happens.

I am a fan of the Little Monsters on the whole, honestly.. I havent had the Frank Jr yet though, but some people have said its the best of the set, some say its the worst..  The litle mum tasted VERY cedary... I wonder if that will tone down over time.  The little Drac i loved.. it thought it was excellent.  The babyface was decent.. The Wolfie was good.  I think these all need age though.

The box of little boris... I wont even touch them yet.. it will be a least a few months... I only have 10  :'(

Never ceases to amaze me how much tastes and preferences vary amongst individuals.  I've smoked one of each and thought the Wolfie was by far best, followed closely by the Babyface.  I'd buy boxes of each of them if they were available.  Frank, Jr. was a pretty good cigar but not boxworthy.

Both Lil Drac and Mini Mum were, in my opinion, rather one dimensional and really muddled in flavor, not much discernible.  YMMV, of course.

I agree with all of this!

Yeah, I would have to agree that The Lil Drac was rather one-dimensional.. but it was good, IMHO

i dont know a whole lot about the tats but enjoyed several really nice ones in the past. had a tat mini drac tonight and agree one dimensional but nice little smoke.

  Almost made it through the second round of these.  Still have the Frank, Jr. to smoke in round two.  My preference remains basically the same:

Wolfie
Babyface
(blank)
Lil Drac
Mini-Mum

  Some folks here and elsewhere are raving about the Mini-Mum.  I don't get it.  The second one I pitched at the halfway point, that's how much I didn't like it. 

  Oh well, if you like it, smoke it.  I have a box resting and will revisit these in another six months or so. 

  As we say, smoke what YOU like not what others like.  :bigup:
