I wish I was watching the site... I wasn't able to pick up a Proto Leopard3, they sold out of both not even within the hour! Lucky I got a couple in reserve from the VIP members.

Turning over from a flat throw

Haha, the weirdness with the Grand Slam Destroyer inventory is coming from the fact that they're only allowing 1 per customer but their system lets you order more, so most people (like myself) probably didn't see the "1 per customer" limit and ordered multiples, which reduced the inventory to 0, but then DGC refunds you for all but 1 and bumps the inventory back up on the site. I understand order limits, but 1 per customer is pretty low. Even people who only want to throw them and aren't looking to flip or hoard might want 2 or 3...

Yep, I ordered a handful only to notice the limit later. Oh well, at least I got one. Haven't been very successful getting these so far.

My local shop got them in today and this run molded up nice. No weird shapes, everything is very smooth looking if that makes sense.
L3s on the other hand I wasn't too impressed with. My blue color glow is flatter than any of the stock stamps they had.

Soooo now that people have their hands on the grand slams, can anyone say if they are the same run as the halloween/mcbeth ones (flat, destrulcan-ish wing, super OS), or is this the same run?

I haven't thrown any of mine, but none of them resemble anything close to what I'd call a destrulcan. I ordered a bunch of star destroyers for a tournament in august, and these look nothing like the ones I received in my custom order.

They look just like my 4x mcbeths and bottom stamps. My aj actually looks a little bit like a Vulcan top.
Walked into my local shop (Disc Caddie) and they've got the shipment of Grand Slam Destroyers and protostar L3's just sitting there unopened. :hfive:
They let me go through the box and pick out whatever I wanted, got two of each. :thmbup:

I just talked to Mike at Glide Disc Golf and he was super nice and helpful. He's sending me 3 Grand Slams for $20 each with priority shipping included. He went through their weights/colors for me and even picked out the 3 with the biggest domes. He said most were fairly flat, but a few had some dome. He was super helpful, so I'd definitely recommend them. I think they have 8 left if anyone wants to pick some up.
Got a black 175 4x in the mail yesterday. It has a bit of dome to it.

Went to my local shop today and felt up all of the Grand Slam Destroyers, none of them were domey, they were all really stiff for Star plastic, none were Destrulcan, all were 175, bought a blue one, threw it several times, I have plenty of power and that sucker is very overstable, reminds of the really overstable SDS (though not domey), this stiff plastic will probably stay overstable for a long time.
