Hi all,
Long time listener, first time caller.
I'm in China for an unexpected work trip and I've just been for a wander through the shopping mall behind my hotel.
As I wander down the aisles of the department store what should catch my eye but some cheesy kids fountain pens!
Closer perusal of the reveals a bevvy of pens in blister packaging.
What was I to do? I brought them all of course.
11 pens for about $40AUD.
Bliss.
Here's what I ended up with;
Image 1 (5 pens)
Left to right
579 - (Mis-packaged) Black with gold coloured trim and gold coloured hooded nib. piston fill (i think, it looks like a converter but instead of twisting to make it fill it has a slider)
616 - Doctor - Balck with silver cap & hooded nib - Bladder filler
326 - QQ bear - metalic pale blue with silver trim & nib (not opened - need scissors!)
3001A - 0.38mm hooded silver nib - halloween cat design, yellow cap, white body, with bottle of black smooth writing ink.
5038 - 0.38mm silver nib, pink metallic body, black cap with bottle ink as above.

6017 -black silver trimmings, gold coloured hooded nib
6017 - got two because I'm a dumbass
6021 - red with silver trim, silver hooded nib
6017 - blue with silver trim - gold hooded nib. it appears i have three of these, I swear the blue in yellow packing has a different size nib though.
Image three (2 pens)
Tru colour Lotus A0046 - black with gold trim, crystal embedded in clip, silver hooded nib, same sliding piston fill as above.
tru color Lotus satin metal body, shiny trim, iridium nib. no identifying marks, sold with ink.
Sorry for the average photos, I'm a bit limited here in the hotel room, it irks me that i can't get into the damn blister packs, i need to go hunt down a concierge.
I also picked up a muji fountain pen while I was in Hong kong on the way over.
If anyone has a desperate need for on of these pens let me know in the next few hours and i'll see whether I can run down and grab a few more.
Warm regards,
Jen
