M200 Special Edition 2015

[Nyanzilla]

Hi everyone!

 

I just got notice of a new special edition M200 coming in 2015.

It is called "café creme".

I like the colour.

 

Although I own several Pelikan pens in that size, this one I must have.

[DBQMary]

Congratulations! I really like the color combination. Maybe due to my coffee addition....

[risingsun]

Yup, that one is going on the wish list... Thank you for sharing it!

[wastelanded]

Oh my yes.

[Doug1426]

Oh yeah, no doubt about it. It's on my grab list baby!

[Anabasis]

Gotta hand it to Pelikan, they remain tasteful in their special releases. The cognac was gorgeous and now this looker.

[branman1986]

That is bad to the bone. A little retro color scheme, but I love it.

^{I really like this a lot. I'm so glad such a beautiful color is being offered in a more affordable 200 rather than the more expensive larger sizes.}

It makes me hungry for biscotti.

It makes me hungry for biscotti.

Haha, it's a really tasty colour combination. Well done, Pelikan.

[Mr Ink]

Very nice. I must confess that their Cognac version wasn't to my taste, but this is right up my street. I wonder whether it will be available with an italic nib?

[saskia_madding]

I hope it comes with the option for an italic nib. If so, I'll definitely grab one!

[DrCodfish]

It's a looker, wonder how many more surprises they will be rolling out. I have to say I think their marketing strategy is off by about 6 weeks. It makes sense to me to put these new items on the market BEFORE Christmas, not after. But what do I know?

First the black striped M800, and now this! Absolutely brilliant in the same way as the white tortoise, - it has the same retro /weird genome. I do hope that this is a huge success, and gives Pelikan the confidence to do something more interesting than a seemingly eternal stream of dreary demonstrators.

I also love the way Pelikan describe the colour combination as 'dreamy', which makes me think of the Shangri-Las and Lesley Gore.

I gotta say, the more I look at this new M200, the more I like it. The color scheme is so similar to the 400 series tortoiseshell Pelikans of the 1950s and 60s. The two-tone pattern is a bit reminiscent of the blue-black and green-black M250s of a while back (and the red-black M150), but I think this rendition is even better. Pelikan has struck a solid chord on this pen. Very well done.

German list price 125 Euro.

Nibs in EF to B. No obliques and no italics.

 

Even so, looking nice pen.

[swanjun]

Does the Cognac promptly disappear from vendors at the turn of the year, or might I have a decent chance of finding it at a pen show in, say, April?

[sargetalon]

Oh, Pelikan is going to strain my budget in 2015. Will definitely be picking one of these up. Should pair nice with 4001 Brilliant Brown.

[transcend]

I think i might prefer some m400 trimming on those colors. IDK, any reason I can find to not buy a pen, I need to listen to.
