Pelikan Twist: New Colors For 2016

[GraniteScribbler]

I was looking at Pelikan's web page this morning, and noticed they have four new colors of the Twist fountain pen (and rollerball):

• Berry
• Spearmint
• Bronze
• Jungle

The previous colors are still shown, though many of them seem nearly impossible to find in stock.

 

Has anyone seen the new colors for sale yet?

Pearl is still my favorite color pattern in the Twist. Of this new batch, I find Berry oddly appealing. I had a Summer Splash but sold it for lack use. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing this. I have the Candy Apple version. It's kind of a Christmas pen to me, but hardly limited to that.

 

I got an eradicator from Jet Pens. Once the Edelstein garnet has run out, I think I'll put the royal blue cartridge in so I can try out the eradicator.

 

Of the new colors, the ones with green tones are interesting but I still like the red one I got.

Candy Apple, Fresh Ocean and Summer Splash are still available at Jet Pens.

 

Edited to note that none of the new colors are shown at Jet Pens.

I have the ocean blue in my collection. But I don't use it. I prefer round grip sections.

You can find them all on amazon.de. I really like these pens, specially at work.

If you hold a Twist and close your eyes, you can imagine you're holding an OMAS 360

That's almost magical. I kind of like the two-tone blue version, Fresh Ocean. Not sure if I need another Twist though. I'm using the Candy Apple one to work on crossword puzzles with the royal blue cartridge and the eradicator. Nice to "erase" mistakes and have a clean puzzle. Trying to correct fountain pen ink doesn't always look good.

I found all 4 new colors at http://www.papiton.de. The last two, Berry and Bronze, arrived today, so my collection is complete!! I have 14 colors; I think that is all that have been offered so far.

 

The new Bronze color is unlike the others. It's shiny and has a very metallic appearance.

Yes, I also count 14 Twists on my website: https://www.pelikan-collectibles.com/en/Pelikan/Models/Cartridge-filler/School-youngsters-fp/index.html

Your web site is an excellent resource. Thanks for maintaining it.

 

In the Twist section, you've listed Spearmint twice, and Berry is missing.

Thank's for letting me know. Copy and paste ;-) I've corrected it.
