Thanks for the photo! I'm really excited about those new colors.

 

And I believe you said the new bottles will be 60ml instead of the current 50ml. Do you know the new price?

The bottles are 60ml and the price is $30 AUD...I am sure it will be cheaper in the US as you all get very spoilt there by Montblanc.

I think it's another step towards making MB a luxury brand. Redefine the inks. Rename existing ones, and introducing new ones. Then release them at a higher price. Much like what Caran d'Ache has done a couple of years ago when they inroduced their Colours of the Earth inks.

Anyone heard any more about that saffron ink mentioned with the Gandhi pen?

 

 

If I didnt know better I would say that was a joke!

 

And smells like Pilau rice?

I'll miss Turquoise, and will probably replace it with the light sky blue.

Toffee brown will replace my Sepia.

I can imagine what Midnight blue will look like and will be useful as a darker blue.

Very curious about the Oyster grey and purple (I'm guessing it will be lighter than the violet)

And I'm guessing Mystery black will be a more saturated black than the current one.

I'm looking forward to the sudden variety but not the price increase.

Perhaps mystery black will be invisible ink :)

Please no one throw anything at me :D but are they really all new colors or just a repacking and renaming of some of the existing colors? I hate to see some of my favorites go, like Sepia, or Bordeaux...

So no Green at all.

That's why I bought a boatload of BRG.

Hard times don't last, but hard people do.

 

Thank a Veteran.

Don't think it's a joke. I was told that there will be an orange ink released with the Gandhi when I was in the MB factory in June.

I think most of the inks will be the same, but in different packaging.

And everyone thought I meant it to be an April's Fool thing when I first shared the news.

You'll get my 149 only when you pry it from my cold dead fingers.

I'll defend MB against the "jewelry" argument.

I think that the wing-nib is the greatest thing since the opposable thumb.

But...

 

It's just a box!

Yeah, the box is really nice looking, but... I agree. It's just a box. I currently pay $11.00 a bottle for MB ink. I wonder how much they're going to jack the price. :(

I hope they don't change the shape of the bottle either. After that, I hope I don't have to pay more for ink.
