Safari Pen color for 2012?

[Markwil]

I finally got mine, I ordered it from Goulet Pens with a Black F nib! For some crazy reason I find the Black Lamy nibs to be the smoothest steel nibs I've ever used! The Apple green colour is fantastic and a lot easier on my eyes than the lime green!
Amazingly the price I paid was about $10.00 cheaper than I would've paid for the pen and converter here in Canada and it only took a week and a half to arrive. I filled it with Mont Blanc Irish Green and it's a nice spring time beauty!

I got mine from iSellPens last Thursday. I was off the grid up in the mountains all weekend, but this morning I loaded it with J.Herbin Lierre Sauvage, brought it to work with me, and took notes with it all day. I got the medium nib, and I couldn't be happier with it.

For those who arrived late to the new-release.. lamy nibs are very easy to change.. As Markwil noted above there are other nibs you may request when ordering. Nibs weigh next to nothing, you may wish to purchase extra nibs, in a variety of sizes. Italic 1.1 is fine enough for every day writing. Falls closer to fine point than medium.
My fine nib is loving Diamine Saddle brown. Nice, fluid line on Rhodia pad.

I found this website that shows a comparison of the EF, 1.1. 1.5 and 1.9 nibs. It also has an embedded copy of Brian Goulet's video show how to change out the nibs.

I'm trying to learn basic italic, so I'm thinking a 1.5 might be nice.

Rants of the Archer blog has a review of the AppleGreen 2012 Safari including pictures of the special Lamy box his came in & side by side comparison to the lime green edition. Also he shows off some nice penmanship using J. Herbin's Vert Pré ink and some other special edition safaris too.
