Happy New Year! It's been a busy start to the year for me so I haven't had time to update. But I'll be getting back into the swing of things soon - especially as I recieved a pen trade that completed two of my pen collections - The Aqua Shabon of the Zebra Sarasa Fresh Paradise collection and The Moustache Pink for the Zebra Sarasa Pink Series collection. Thanks so much Heidi for trading with me! I've also made a Jetpens order for some lovely Field Notes notebooks, which I can't wait to get! Photos coming soon.
But I'm here today to announce some exciting news from Zebra Japan. For their latest Sarasa pen collection, Zebra have teamed up with Chupa Chups to create a colourful, new series of pens. These pens will be on sale from Jan 19th, 2015 from all shops in Japan that carry Zebra Sarasa pens.
There will be 10 pens in the set, which the following colours and scents: Red (Cherry), Orange (Orange), Light Orange (Mango), Yellow (Pudding), Green (Apple), Dark Blue (Cola), Light Blue (Vanilla), Pink (Peach), Purple (Grape) and Black (Chocolate ice-cream).
As usual, the pens will come in a packet of 10...
Although you may also purchase them in separate packets of 5, in both a red packet and a blue packet
What I really love is that the pen barrels will be lined with the Chupa Chups flavour, as well as little lollipops. The print will also follow the pop-arty designs of Chupa Chup flavours with the iconic Salvadore Dali designed logo.
I'm also really looking forward to the new scents. I know Uniball have created Cherry and Cola scents before, but I've never owned any Cherry or Cola scented pens by Zebra. I'm also looking forward to a pudding scented pen. Wonder what that would be like?!
The next collaboration I'd like to see with Zebra is maybe with Kit Kats (as there are crazy Kit Kat flavours in Japan)...or maybe Pepsi (Again, there are some mad Pepsi flavours that you'd only get in Japan!) To see them immortalised in pen form would be awesome. Who do you hope Zebra will collaborate with?
