Mb Next We, Poa, Donation Pen

[Maine Vintner]

Blue 146 is interesting if its true, hope it comes in silver trim

Silver/platinum would make sense. I would like to see that, too. Would also like to see the return of the Bordeaux.

I'll welcome the return of bordeaux, any color other than black

Heard about the Johann Strauss Donation Pen.

The clip is a violin bow!

Should be a great DP again.

Thanks for the pictures! To me it will be a 1 to 3 MB pens this year: Writters (grey), probably the Pavarotti and the Masters. Would love the Skeleton but out of my budget, I would have to limito my pen shopping to just this pen for the entire year.

Would love to see pictures of the Heritage ball pen. I would like to have a ball point to match my Heritage FP.

The Tolstoy would have been a perfect opportunity for a 139-style WE (like the Dumas or the Hemingway). For the titan of the great Russian literary tradition, it would have been only fitting.

The regular GC Warhol corpus is designed with several logos of the famous Campbell's tin.

This FPs top is designed as an unopened tin.

Looks cool. Great job - Hamburg!

I eventually have the chance to view the pens in real during the Black & White Weeks. Firstly I want to share the WE 2015 Leo Tolstoy. It is not 'grey' as what we saw in pictures of this thread.

 

WE 2015 Leo Tolstoy - Cap: dark blue resin (like the JFK SE, or even darker), Barrel: silver plated with hammered spots, Cone: mixed-paint pattern in sky blue colour.

Tolstoy 1868 version - Cap: blue lacquer, Barrel: champagne colour, Cone: dark brown timber with a green gemstone on top.

 

As we were not allow to take photos, I could only modify the pictures of this thread to show how they actually looked

Thank you for the Tolstoy information.

 

But, oh dear.

[Tal Inbar]

I think it is the FIRST WE that has another , smaller edition (the 1868 Tolstoy). Another way to drive us crazy.....

Indeed the 1868 version is four times the price of its own brother WE 2015, and even more expensive than the POA & Great Character

I dont know how I feel about the sky blue swirled end piece. The rest of the pen would be an automatic purchase for me.

+1 on this..

[Ghost Plane]

I like it, but wish they would stay consistent and have metal caps with metal bodies.

I'm a huge fan of the vintage inspired era of the WE's (1992-2000). I'm still waiting for another one based on the 139! it seems ever since 2000 or so MB has been moving away from that and producing more and more eclectic pens. This one is certainly one of them, looks like nothing else. I'll reserve judgement until I see it in real life...

[tenney]

Thanks for the info etc. I'd always like to know best guesses of prices too -- it helps...

The WE is $1,000 and the 1868 is $4,150.

That took a turn for the worse.

 

 

Hemingway, Christie, Poe, Proust, Schiller, Kafka, Fitzgerald, Wilde, Dostoyevsky, Faulkner

 

Medici, Octavian, Morgan, Copernicus, Charlemagne, Friedrich II

 

 

 

Why has it gone so wrong?

What do you mean by that?

The New WE actually looks nice. I like it. I was shown a few pics of it today.
