What Chinese Pens are you Waiting for in the Mail?

[WLSpec]

Waiting for a few PenBBS 355 pens after the recent release! One in clear glass, one in moon river, and the last in amber is a cat. Very excited for these.

The vast majority of the pens I was expecting have came into my possession : Hero 616+ ( black) , Hero 616 S (Black) , Wing Sung 601A (conical) CT , Wing Sung 612 ( burgundy red) , MoonMan F9 Steel !  

 

Stefan, would you mind sharing where you found that Wing Sung 601A CT (conical), please? I have only been able to find one with a hooded or an exposed nib, and I really want one with a conical nib. Thanks. 

 

Edit: Never mind, I found one on AliExpress.

Thanks Stefan! I ordered mine from the same seller yesterday. Now the waiting game begins.  

I've read multiple posts here from people saying that the conical Wing Sung nibs are garbage, but I already have a standard 601A with a conical nib and it is one of my favorite Chinese fountain pens. It writes absolutely beautifully since it's been broken in,  albeit after some fine-tuning with micro-mesh. 

What is your experience with them?

Well I like the way the Wing Sung 601A conical is writting, but it depends of course from person to person, the experience can be very different, better or worse !

Jinhao 100 Centennial Checkerboard - M. nib

[scrivelry]

I have two Jinhao 100's coming my way - the pink one I ordered today, and the orange ice one which has been sitting in the sorting facility of the USPS at the other end of my county since  the eleventh. (I suspect it has fallen into some corner and who knows when it will actually arrive at my door step...)

 

I am also waiting for three plastic pocket pens - two don't have much of a name, and the third is a Wingsung that looks like a Kaweco sport.

 

I am a little confused because I am certain I ordered two other pens, but they are not showing...
