Trollbeads Fall 2013 sneak peek

I like the collection but it is very expensive to complete a bracelet. I do not like the black rubber and would not be able to wear this bracelet until it was complete... Not sure why the bronze links are so expensive... Even silver for that matter, I thought they price of silver has decreased largely.

Stunning!!

Need to watch out for spineless ones too...the overpolishers at work again  

wow.  quality control, anyone?

Modelled on Richard the III:D  

Has it been confirmed that a "Richard the 3rd" Skelly (Thanks Panda!) will automatically have its head tilted at a jaunty angle?

I like some of the individual links and wished they had been turned into beads, but I don't like the overall look of the bracelets, too chunky, too 80s, too edgy... And too expensve too.

 How could anything be too 80s?   

In fact I have started playing with X in my imagination, planning bracelets by theme etc. A bit like those early times collecting TBs. Not certain if I actually will buy anything (not having seen X IRL yet), but for me it is definitely *something*.

Axl Rose 2013...I rest my case,  me lord.

    
love you Pandabee!  

  Noooooo!

Hmm, is that black rubber links I see on his mike hand?

Haha! And look at those stacks... 

 Goodness that man is stacked!

OMG!  

OK so it COULD be too 80s. Hrmpf.

I love this guys stuff made from recycled spoons and coins.

how lovely!!!

I first thought i don't want to invest on a whole new bracelet either, but after seeing columbiene and pierrot and harlequin I just might be tempted.

But if I ever make one of those bracelets, I will make just one (famous last words!), because I think they would all look really similar as there aren't many colour options (I would not pay the abusive gold price and would only use the rubber bits while the bracelet wasn't complete), like our beloved glass and stone beads to add a pop of colour and interest.

Though I would have rather preferred to have had some of those designs made into locks or beads for the bracelet system I have already spent thousand of euros on.

Yes that's how I feel, we've been dumped after spending lots of money !

....and just look at the world shattering TB silvers we are going to be offered this Christmas.

I'm sure I saw those shooting stars on QVC last Christmas ?

They do, but i was told that IRL you can't really see them, they are very tiny. if i ever see them IRL i will let you know what i think.

Saw X irl today.  I went to my LD for a few of the aurora beads, but they were sold out at the moment :(so I looked at X, which I had been thinking about anyways, and walked away with a bracelet  

All I got was the dragon, 2 bronze links, and rubber, but it was very expensive  In the photos I really liked the sound wave link, but irl it is so tiny, and not worth $46 USD!  Honestly, it is all overpriced, though I'm really liking my bracelet.  I plan on wearing it stacked, but I'm waiting for a previously purchased chain and lock first.  Will definitely show a photo when it arrives!

Oh, and regarding the crystal eyes, you cannot see them unless you look closely. I think they should not have bothered.
