thank you for the pics!
i think the creamy coloured one on the left combines perfectly with the two beads in the front of the right set!
oh, and the dark dillo is great too. i have not got any dillo - so far.

by Miriel Mon Aug 15, 2011 5:47 pm

Ohh, dark green and violet armadillo! I love you

Thank you Sita..and sherlock for showing these picture.
Yes, beautiful colors this time. bounce

Well done Sherlock!!! They all look fabulous. It's wonderful to have a dillo in the production beads, I can see a few of these being bought over the coming months Smile

If these are the glass I can't wait to see what silvers are coming out! Smile

Great detective work Sherlock!!!! The bubbles beads and the dillo are soooo gorgeous!!! Have your detective skills worked with the silvers too???? Laughing

It's hard to surprise our customer base with the pics being on the internet so fast.

Carry on.

I don't want to disillusion you, Babsbead, but it always has been like that Laughing

! We were always the ones that knew the releases before most others and even before most dealers did, but are we less enthusiastic about the new release? No way Shocked

!
I personally love beads from both kits but even though I have seen them now, I 'm excited to see them IRL on the 26th! We all know that they may vary so much from the pics TB delivers, so I guess the dealers will still have us ooohing and aaaahing about the beads in the shops!

Quite so - I tell my LD and the various online sellers that I use about the releases long before they know anything themselves.

I would like to get all of new glass beads! But they would absolutely exceed my budget for new release Sad

by Michelle Mon Aug 15, 2011 6:21 pm

It is very good to see these before they are released. I have seen some as one of a kind but now can plan a bracelet even better. To have an armadillo and bubble beads in a release is lovely.
Does the honey flower one remind any one of Golden Plaid?

by soxfan Mon Aug 15, 2011 6:22 pm

I hope I HATE the silvers so I can afford to just buy all the glass. LOL

by Molamola Mon Aug 15, 2011 6:22 pm

Oooooooooooooooooooh beauties! Love them all, don't seem to be any uglies in there. So excited about the purple 'dillo, the stripey beads and the bit of teal gorgeousness. Christmas wishlist rejigged once more!

by lyric_girl Mon Aug 15, 2011 6:23 pm

Definitely buying multiple purple dillos and green bubbles. Not too sure about the rest, although the not azure bubbles catches my eye too.

I doubt it, retirals are usually in Januarys and our spies always get lots of advance notice.

My first thought was that they looked like OOAKs too but that's not a bad thing. I am thinking how well they will go with the Lakeside beads.

by Brightonbelle Mon Aug 15, 2011 6:28 pm

I want to know whether those 2 beads are red or orange?

by Michelle Mon Aug 15, 2011 6:29 pm

What is the link between the glass we see and the photo released by Trollbeads, please?

by Molamola Mon Aug 15, 2011 6:33 pm

Autumnal colours I think.

I hope they will not start dancing around on your leather Cyberfairy, as I guess these beads will have the UU cores?

Troll already said that the larger cores were for UUs only and they had no intention of changing the production sizes.

Loving the purple dillo...

No, not to be greedy, but I'd quite like to know about the silvers too - am trying not to buy glass - any chance?????????

I love seeing pics before the release. I can understand that you like to surprise your customers, but I will still be going to my LD as soon as she gets them in to see the beads irl! Nothing spoils that!

If anything, seeing a sneaky preview of the release makes me more excited, and gives me time to plan which beads I really 'need' so I am more likely to know what i want to buy when I visit, rather than going and looking for the first time and not buying anything becasue i am so indecisive!!

Are many of your customers on here? If not then I doubt your surprise will be spoiled

Better to see them as pics on a forum than at your competitors. JMHO My business is also one that people are always seeing sneak peeks from other sources. The customers I have built a relationship with may see them elsewhere, but come to me to make their purchase. It used to bother me until I realized that I wasn't losing a thing, and actually gaining more in the long run.

by MinnNorsk Mon Aug 15, 2011 7:21 pm

I am hoping that only the UUs have the larger cores...does anyone know for sure...in photo, they appear to be normal size!!!

by chocoholic Mon Aug 15, 2011 7:24 pm

Definitely like the look of the NAB... Very Happy

and the dillo... Very Happy
