I don't know if they'll sell many, but at least they have displaced the "exploding" results from basic searches about the galaxy note.

I'm not sure using the first letter of the word "exploding" in the suffix was a clever idea.

It is actually called the Fandom Edition.
I strongly prefer something along the lines of Fiery Explosion. It sounds less stupid.

The FE stands for Fractically never Explodes. There was a typo somewhere along the line.
