I can't seem to find it on their website or a price indicated on the image uploaded... Anybody know how much it will cost? I know it's not going to be cheap! It is beautiful though.

102,300 yen. I called maruzen yesterday morning and it was sold out, at least my preferred FM nib.

This pen is featured in the latest vol. 52 of Shumi no bungubako 「趣味の文具箱」and yes, I was told by my favourite Singapore pen dealer that he could not get one. It was not listed on Maruzens website or Facebook page either.

That's actually not as much as I was expecting.

This pen will be sold offically next March at the Maruzen penshow. But Maruzen sends out postcards with information about the LEs available at the show to the members of their penclub. You can become member if you bought a pen for 60000 Yen or more at Maruzen.

You can imagine that there is not much time between arrival of that card and a LE pen being prereserved/sold out. Especially, if it is something special. There were also Nakaya/KoP/Eboya pens in that announcement.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
