So the day ought to look like:
Pelikan m200 cafe creme for breakfast,
Safari Strawberry and cream for tea in the afternoon. :-)
To which I'll add my Bexley Corona 'Blueberry Cream' for dessert.
I still like the Petrol. One of these days I might use the bottled ink, still using the petrol cartridges.
...
...what's really behind "strawberry & cream"!

Thanks for the last sentence on your handwritten note. I have been curious about those other pens and I might try one. But I have to say that I do like both the Safari and the Al-Star. The Al-Star is slightly lighter, but honestly I like the feeling of heft that the Safari gives when I write with it.

Thank you very much!
Do you know when these came to the market?

January this year (2023), maybe February. I think they are still available. I will confirm.
But the point here is that there are many local Safari editions--for just some shops in Tokyo, for Japan, or for the East Asia market.
Here you can see a couple of examples:
Lamy Vista Katakana, for the retailer Loft. 2020:

Lamy Safari to commemorate the 150th anniversary of German-Japanese friendship. Sure you can read the inscription! 2011:
Attachment 77616
There are more examples.

Thank you iosepus!
In this thread I am trying to cover all the different colors. It is beyond my capabilities to also note all the special editions. Nevertheless, it's interesting to collect informations anyway. So, thank you again.

PS: are you collecting Safaris too?
Good luck with your compilation. I will try to add some examples. However, the trend of mixing and matching different colored parts makes it an endless task.
Case in point:

I do not collect Safari--i just accumulate some that I find interesting, particularly if limited to some specific market.
Cheers,
