    New Pelikans you say? I really hope a couple are M200/400 price level. I adore the pens they've released recently but way too many of them are just totally out of reach.

    Current pen rotation: way too many!

    Cross my palm with silver (or vermeil) I can tell the future for you. Okay, nope, the crystal ball says nothing.. Oh hang on, there's something red brownish, like a 100n sea turtle swimming in autumn. Apart from that, no more.

    The price hikes are really a killer. You can generally get a better deal online, but they still aren't cheap by any means.

    I agree with tandaina, I would love to see something new in M200/400.

    It's already out but I'm curious about Pelikan Twist. I wonder if they would offer different color combinations next year.

    Other than the M101N Red tortoise I mentioned above. Here's another one.

    [17:37] printhardcopy: just come here to say hello to everyone
    [17:38] printhardcopy: next year m200 italic nib coming
    [17:38] printhardcopy: last batch
    [17:59] Jeph: Hiya Geeks. Factory italic would be nice
    [18:11] printhardcopy: yes, m200 orange demo with italic nib

    Happy days.

    I'm not sure I'm following that. Is this saying Pelikan is issuing an M200-series orange highlighter next year, like this year's green one and the older yellow one?

    The M101N Red Tortoise will be awesome. The nibs on this series are wonderful.

    I think so, Laura. They had listened to complaints about the BB being less than useful for highlighting. It will be quite a challenge to support factory italic, let's just hope it won't be cut on the sides. Looks a bit weird. They did it to some smaller italic to maintain line width, which doesn't matter for a highlighter.

    That's really neat. I don't highlight, but that almost sounds interesting for regular use.

    Factory Italic? Orange Demo? Amen to both!
