Lease is up in one year from April and they'll assuredly be gone.

    Further complicating all this is issues between the shop and the Fuentes. They don't and haven't had inventory or merch for years. When Casa Fuente was released wide, I was standing in the shop looking at empty shelves. I actually took a call from @Old Smokey sitting in the shop and got in on a box split with him!

    Don't be surprised if they move and rename to Casa Bradley, Casa Warped, or Casa...?
    That's some good intel. Thanks, TJ! So, we should expect to see occasional releases of Casa Fuentes out in the wild?

    Fuente must own the name/logo because they've released them before, so I'd say it's likely.

    If they truly divorce themselves from that store/ownership group, I wonder if we'll see a Casa Fuente shop(s) pop up elsewhere.

    Edit: What all did the blog say?

    Nothing more than what I passed on:

    "- Casa Fuente will be closing down due to lease issues after years of being in Caesars."
    It was a blog report following attendance at this year's TPE in Vegas. TPE Total Product Expo
