Sailor Bung Box Nostalgia

A very short review of this ink.

 

It's a decent brown. I don't usually like brown inks, but I find this one nice and calming. Plus it has a beautiful name. It also has some water-resistence.

Thanks so much for posting this. I've been waffling on it for a long time, but since I don't generally like browns, I'v always given it a pass. With a closer look thanks to your review, I now know for sure that although it's nice, I wouldn't like it or use it myself. I appreciate you saving me $40!

A little more than $40 right now.... Nostalgia can only be bought in 12.. until next year.

 

 

I do love browns and sepia and love my Nostalgia.

Next year is so far away!

 

Also, are all the Bungbox inks like that, sold only by the dozen?

Nope... most are sold individually, but some are "seasonal".. Meaning, they are only available in singles once (or twice) a year.. The rest of the year you can only get them in 12's (if they are available).

Thanks for clarity Cyber6. Does the the "evil thread" of all the Sailor Japan-only inks list/identify the seasonal ones?

[saskia_madding]

I don't quite have ALL of them. I've stopped buying the ones I am pretty sure I won't like - almost all the browns and most of the blacks/grays.

[white_lotus]

At least you're leaving some for us!
