Odyssey/Toulon Small Batch - Azalea

[PinkStripes]

With all the positive feedback surrounding the latest Santa Monica Small Batch release, I decided to look more into the past iterations and really really like the Azalea. But, for some reason there seems to be virtually no history of these trading on Wrx classifieds or eBay. 
 

What’s the story on these? Anyone know where to find… or was the release capped at some absurdly low number and I should stop wasting my time looking?

Only 12 were made so extremely low numbers and odds of those guys being on WRX are probably slim to none.

Makes sense. Though in comparison, seems like every person who purchased one of the 25 happy gilmore hockey sticks or Santa Monica is looking to flip.

I believe they went to a lotto style system to be more fair. But that just opened the door for flippers.

Anyone know the details of the lottery system? 

 

I love the SM version but not sure how exactly the release went down. Relevant since they teased the next release (a La Grange) for tomorrow.

You signed up for the lottery and then like two weeks later I got a phone call where the caller ID said it was from Austin TX. I almost didn’t even pick up the phone. The only option they asked me was what length and then my credit card info. It came about a week later.

Dumb question, but where do you sign up for the lottery? I only see an option to input email address for “exclusive offers”, but nothing for phone number which I’m guessing you provided if notified via phone call.

There was a link to a form on their Instagram post announcing signups were open last time. I signed up there.

I can't even tell what the La Grange is...is there any more info? I want to get excited but it looks like a long-neck Santa Monica?

Looks to be based on the Austin

I'm not flipping my Santa Monica... I've been gaming the hell out of it.  It's the perfect putter.

Glad to hear that! I got the Santa Monica Small batch, I cannot bring myself to flip it! Especially after MattUtah was so bummed about his...It looks so good. I have not gamed it yet as my Phantom X 5.5 is "rollin' dirty" and won't be pried out just yet. I imagine the feel on a nice green is sweet? (Carpet rolls do not count).
