Innova's 2007 Pumpkin discs are coming out on October 8th. They claim that they will have Rocs, Aviars, and some drivers (not listed). It's all DX plastic with the 2007 Halloween stamp on it:

Would anyone be interested in these? The cost would be $8 cash per disc. I bought a couple last year, but since I only had one tournament in October I didn't get a lot of traction.
If there is any interest, I would essentially use the money from the ace race to put together an order from Innova. Unfortuantely I would not have them in time for the Ace Race, but I could get them to you before halloween. If I do order I would probably have some at the final Disc Golf Alley tournament for the year (date not determined yet).
I'll post what drivers the stamp is available on as soon as I know.
Thanks!
Scott
I'd take a few Pumpkin Rocs, I taco'd the one I used to throw :'(
I'll take a couple pumpkin Aviars, Scott. Thanks.
I was talking to Russell at Innova East today. He's the pumpkin stamp artist and hotstamp machine operator. He was setting up the machine while we were talking. He didn't know what drivers they were going to run. He was happy to run any drivers I might want! I got 20 Rocs and 20 Aviars for IOS 6 and Byron Big D Doubles. I'll probably only bring half of them to Fairfield.
you can count on me to buy some rocs and avairs, pumpkin discs are awesome
If you're paying cash, hook up with Scott. If you've got brass, I'll have them at Fairfield.
I need to get a few. I cannot have enough backups for the others that I have already.
I'd be intrested in a pumpkin Roc, something in the 179-180 range... I'll be at the ace race and the IOS 6...
Wow, this is a lot greater response than expected! Maybe I'll see if I possibly squeeze in an order on the 8th to receive it before the ace race... I have no idea if I can get that quick of a turnaround time though! I'll have to call it in to find out.
From what I received last year, everything was max weight. I think that would make a lot of people happy - especially with Roc's and Aviars!
At worst I'll have my leftover 2006 pumpkin discs at the ace race, but I think I only have 2 or 3 rocs and 2 aviars.
Do they have the same stamp as the '07 ones? I'm not sure I like it that much. I gave an '04 pumpkin Roc to a friend of mine and I liked that one better.

Attached is the 2006 Pumpkin design...
I'm guessing the image that Scott posted in the first post is the stamp for them this year. You can see 07 on the pumpkin nose.
that is correct. The picture in the first post is the 2007 design. I posted the 2006 design because roman asked if the other discs that I still had (the '06 ones) had the same design as the 07 ones because he wasn't sure he liked 2007's design.
Ohh I like those '06s much better. Can I pick up one Roc and one Aviar from your '06 leftovers? I'll be at the Ace Race.
you're the first request, so you're the first to receive. I will set those aside for you. I'll send a pm tonight to confirm that I do have one of each just in case my brain is set on "forget".
You can see the '07 design at www.innovadiscs.com.
i'll also order an 06 roc if you have extras...... what is the weight on the aviars.?
everything is 175 for the Aviars, and everything is 180 for the Roc's... for whatever I still have available.
Roman - I have 2 of the 175g 2006 Pumpkin Aviars. I'll have one held for you at the ace race.
I haven't found the leftover Roc's yet. I should have 2 or 3 (I say "or 3" because I think I damaged one) but I have to find what box I put them in.
I will not have the 2007's at the Ace race... but I will be ordering these probably Monday. Feel free to buy from Bruce at the IOS as well.
I'll be set up from 2pm until about 5:30pm at the Hannah Beardsley Middle School in Crystal Lake on Friday, October 19th. Feel free to stop by and browse the discs if you're in the area. I'm running another tournament for the middle schoolers there on that day.
Anyone interested in the Pumpkin Star Destroyers?
I've got a few..
stpitner:
If you have an extra Aviar I'd be happy to take if off your hands.
I noticed on the Innova site that the Sonic will also be run with the pumpkin stamp. Are the pumpkin stamps only available on a "bulk" order or are there other retailers selling them?
The pumpkin stamps are generally available to anyone who buys directly from Innova. They aren't CFR or limited release.
I ordered some of those Sonics, too.
will you have some of the sonics at Round Lake? I'd take a couple if you do.
thanks.

Innova lost my Fairfield order. Then they found it and said they'd get right on it. I still have not received the order confirmation e-mail.
I don't know what I will have at Fairfield. I did order Sonics. I will bring them if I get them.
I also just placed my order today. It would be an absolute shocker if I get everything by Friday. I ordered 20 each of Pumpkin Rocs, Aviars, and Sonic. I also ordered 60 Star Destroyers. If you don't pick one up from Bruce or he sells out too quickly, feel free to get in touch with me.
375 someodd discs in this order, will put my inventory up close to 1700 now, woohoo :)

I've got a few..
How much?
i am interested in the pumpkin destroyers too, Dana, if u got any more
Anyone have any 03 pumpkin aviars? If yes i will be at round lake this weekend both days i know its kind of a late post but hey just curious.
I did not order any Pumpkin Destroyers. I think any kid on the street will take care of that for you. The remedy is to coat your pumpkins with molasses. We used to do that all the time.
My Innova order was a little screwed up. I don't want to post about it or I'll say bad things.
My order was shipped out yesterday. It is due to arrive on Monday. Innova cut my order of 20 Sonic's down to 13, so I'm guessing that was all they had left.
Feel free to request some now... out of what I ordered, I am already down to 10 Roc, 10 Aviar, and 13 Sonic. They will go on first come, first serve basis. $8 cash each. I will not be able to order more, so once I run out, I'm done!
Scott
Innova sent out a note that tomorrow is the last day to order these discs (by noon eastern tomorrow). I don't intend to order more, but as far as weights, here's what I have:
10 Rocs: 7 @ 180g, 3 @ 178g
9 Aviars: 7 @ 175g, 1 @ 172g, 1 @ 171g. The lighter weights are a lighter orange
13 Sonic: Mix weights from I think from 171 - 176g.
I think the 06 Pumpkin looks more confident in your throw than the 07. -_-
