Is it too soon to start guessing the colour of Lamy's next Safari? Any thoughts on whether they'll continue the neon theme with one in orange?
What would people say to a smokey grey (like the section on an AL-star) Vista?

Have they ever done a navy pen with an orange clip. That would be my dream Safari. Or a Maroon Pen with a yellow clip!
But actual thoughts on 2014.... I wonder if they'll keep up the Neon theme and do a few more of those.
[EDIT] I decided to play with this idea a bit more on my blog and I made two mockups for what I'd love to see. (If you want to read the entire post with all my rational you can click here).

I would like a somber darkish green, but whatever they come out with, I'll prolly buy.
My other pen is a Montblanc.

I just want a purple Safari. Like always. After the last few years, however, I have given up hope.
They did the orange recently, but it seems very popular on the secondary market. So the idea of doing a neon orange does make sense.
Like Sailor Kenshin, I'll buy the 2014 model no matter what. I even popped for the neon yellow. And it wasn't so bad.

+1 on the purple. Not going gaga over the neon colous.
After all, I'm not a collector, just hoping for something pretty.

A dark green Al-Star would be great!

I would be all over a bright purple. Or a deep teal--something darker and deeper than the recent aquamarine.
Another vote for nice, deep purple!!
Opal green like the Nexx! Or a re-release of the coffee Al-Star. That I would be quite likely to buy actually.
Or a green Safari to be released as a set with the yellow, blue and white for the World Cup in Brazil!
"What are moon-letters?" asked the hobbit full of excitement. He loved maps, as I have told you before; and he also loved runes and letters, and cunning handwriting, though when he wrote himself it was a bit thin and spidery.
I'd be a fan of Purple as well ...
The neon ones were ok, but I feel like it was a time warp back to the 80's

That's just not good enough, is it?

I'd be interested in purple as well.
It's not bad...the color is a little deeper than I hoped, (online pics made it look paler and more 'dusty' lilac) but the pen itself writes and performs well. I've been thinking of trading mine but now I may hold on to it.
But Laura N is correct...everyone wants a purple Safari. Why don't they make one?

I do not want a Safari.
That's perfect. I can explain my Safari surplus by pointing out that I'm just covering Ivan's and Andy's share.
