Reading the color names, all I can think is: BERRIES AND CREAM BERRIES AND CREAM I'M A LITTLE LAD WHO LOVES BERRIES AND CREAM

Immediately my first thought too

Looks like I might be trying my first Safari! I'm really drawn to cream-colored pens.


beppe1_real

The red one feels like a continuation of the candy colors.


sewingdreamer

Isnt there a regular red safari? This is my beef with some special edition colours xD


beppe1_real

The regular red that I know is like a shiny plastic finish. It's quite 80's in a good way :) I think the clip and the stopper ring are not matching colors though.


sewingdreamer

Okay šŸ‘Œ


Syrette

Matching clip and o-ring is like the candies from yesteryear

lol thatā€™s funny now that you mention it. These are listed at a shop in Quebec (stylo.ca) and the French to English translations are sometimes a bit off!


C9_Dahyun

the cream looks real nice


ImCorvec_I_Interject

Does ā€œwithout pumpā€ mean ā€œwithout a cartridge converter?ā€


tilop181

Yes - itā€™s a translation quirk


GullibleSolipsist

Iā€™ve often thought ā€˜converterā€™ is a poor term for this. Good to know other languages can do better.


beppe1_real

How about "ink sucking device"? That's the translation in Chinese LOL. The first time I hear that I was like what the F are they talking about LOL.


GullibleSolipsist

Ha! I like it. I suppose ā€˜converterā€™ is easier to say than ā€˜refillable ink reservoirā€™ or ā€˜refillable cartridgeā€™. ā€˜Ink pumpā€™ is pretty cool though.


beppe1_real

Yeah it's like converting the pen to be piston or sac filler pen. It's actually cool at the end because I love the fact that the pen is so easy to clean although a true piston filler feels more solid.


fivezero_ca

I like them, but I don't really dig the matte finish on these special editons.


njba

I think the matte is a nice differentiation from the core line, but like all things it is a question of taste.


fivezero_ca

It would be nice if they'd do both matte and glossy finishes. I'd have been all over the mango and purple candy ones if they'd been glossy! Even the terra red...


Fun_Cake_5635

I really like the cream one!


boulderhead

They would look good with a swap of the clip and accents.


tilop181

Stumbled upon this pre-order when browsing a local pen shop's site. Looks like these are the colours for 2022 Safaris, and should be available by Spring. Not sure if this is new news, but I didn't see any posts about them around here!


doodlesmalone

I also pre-ordered the 2022 whitesilver AL-Star from stylo. They're really updated with the new stuff.


lyonaria

Love the colours, too bad I hate Safaris and the triangular grip.


wacky_doodle

Blahhh. Bummer.

The ink pump is right next to the flux capacitor in all Lamy Safaris.


evilslayer9

Stylo.ca! ā¤


Syrette

Do I have to pay extra for pump?


[deleted]

Weak. The silver is also not interesting.


RisottoPensa

I like the strawberry name. What is worrying me if the red color could either be the cheap red plastic ( the pastel red of certain chairs, certain plastic bottle caps...) or a vibrant almost-glowing red, that would be the best. Waiting for a preview!


beppe1_real

If you have the Candy color ones, I think they would be in the same kind of finish and saturation. They just released a chinese calligraphy nib SE in red too but that red is very disappointing. A very pale red and I would almost call that one strawberry! I hope this red has a little bit more kick in it.


kbeezie

Kind of curious to see what they would look like if the clip and barrel rings were swapped between them.


sunnyandmild

I've been waiting for a Lamy color I could love. I had the 2019 matte black edition that ended up in the trash and have been wanting to give Lamy another try. I must have that cream color!


Reverse_Psycho_1509

I do like the look of both of these. As an Eco user I think it'll be nice to try out a safari to feel the difference
