What are the pros and cons of each? Which do you think is the better buy? I'm looking to get one of the two in one or two weeks from now, so any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

i have the goon original the airflow is not adjustable as the lp I would also consider other rda's with similar build decks example for me the apocalypse blows the goon away for flavor due to the granularity of the airflow adjustment if you are hard set on one of these get the clones of them compare them that way a large investment is not made...

Thanks for your input, ej! What, specifically, do you not like about the LP - and - why/how is the original Goon a better choice?

Thanks for your help, MrScaryZ! I am dead set on either Goon/Goon LP or Twisted Messes. I currently have a Tsunami 24 and a Recoil RDA and love both but want just one more RDA as 3 is the magic number for me.

With the space the postless deck takes from the bottom of the chamber and smaller overall chamber size of the LP, the LP chamber is too small IMO.

LOL...
I'm a VAPER of few words, but I'll try...

ORIGINAL GOON
24 mm
Easy to build
Clamp style post deck
YOU CAN BIG ASS COILS!!
Decent juice well
Sqounker convertible
Flavor/VAPOR CHUCKER!

GOON LP
OVERPRICED
PAIN IN THE ASS TO BUILD
POST DECKS SUCKS
SHALLOW JUICE WELL
COILS are limited to 2.5 3.0 simple coils
You can't go bigger than that.....
Flavor is good as expected since your mouth is close to the coils... especially if ur using the rubber cap...
They said it's sqounker convertible
Not sure...
I hope that helps bro...

So if you like hot builds? GOON!
If you LIKE COOLER, LOWER WATTAGE VAPES? LP
If you don't mind the PRICE OF THE LP!
GOOD LUCK BRO...

Thanks, nightshard! I like how the LP looks, but I've been seeing a lot of negative reviews for it, so I'm probably not going to get it. I guess now it's just between the original Goon and a Twisted Messes RDA.

Thanks, ej! Now I'm absolutely certain I don't want the LP. I'm glad I made this thread before buying something that costs a lot but ends up not being what I want.

I would recommend the Cthulhu Shuriken 24 to anyone that thinks of getting the Goon.
It has a better deck, 2 sleeves one is like the goon and the other is bigger, same flavor and vapor IMO (with the goon sleeve) , bigger juice capacity, much cheaper.
The only problem is that it doesn't support a friction fit 1/2 inch drip tip, but 1/2 with o-rings does work.

Note that there's an old Shuriken 22 and an entirely redesigned Shuriken 24.

Thanks for the recommendation! If my local vape shop has the Shuriken I'll take a look.

i have this one. pretty solid RDA for sure.
I'm gonna suggest the pharaoh even though you didn't list it because it's my favorite one.
I saw Rip Tripper's review on the Pharaoh and it looks like a winner. I am limited, however, to whichever RDA's my local vape shop has in stock. My credit card info was stolen and used by somebody after my buying some vape stuff online ($400+) so I am not currently buying off the internet.

The OG Goon 24mm is a much better buy than the LP. I'd say that the Goon is also better than the TM as well. I own all 3 and if your limited to those 3,, I'd pick the Goon any day of the week.

The CSMNT is what the LP should have been made like.

Exactly! The only Bonus of owning the OG Goon and then buying the LP, is that you can run the LP Deck and the Goon Top Cap and it's Damn Close to the CSMNT. The 1st time I built on the LP, I ended up doing this because the Top Cap on the LP wasn't doing it for me.

I ended up getting the Twisted Messes Squared and I love it. It's even better than I was expecting! Ultra-smooth airflow and unparalleled vaping. It's right up there with my Recoil RDA! :)

Oh and after looking at the CSMNT I am pretty sure that it will be my next RDA purchase. It looks like a more user-friendly LP.

Thanks for everybody's help!

I know how you feel. $500 of fraudulent charges were posted on my credit card while I was traveling out of state. Worse timing ever but luckily my card was flagged so they were stopped after that point and I got my money back.

Imo goon lp has less build space than original goon. Apocalypse kills the goon though for sure, my new top rda.
Also an rda I'm using right now as an adv is the outlaw rda which I guess didn't catch on but it's one of my favorites.
