I still like the Rocky Beach kit. The only one still don't like is the one at 6 o'clock in the picture. It will be fun to see them IRL. Friday can't come soon enough!!!

Yes, thanks for the photo Arwen, it looks a little different from the stock photos - nicer I think. Still undecided though Neutral

Thank you for the picture Very Happy

I like the bumpy beads very much. Thanks for tip about all the variation in the beads, it will be a fun challenge to search out perfect ones.

I am glad I am not tempted by the silvers or the locks.

Looking forward to see it in a design! Excited

Thanks for the review and pics Arwen. I like the set you chose a lot. Mmmm, maybe the Rocky Beach set (or a couple of the beads anyway) will be like Azure Bubbles, addictivly variable. Your rose colored people's is beautiful.

Thanks for the "real photo"...they look stunning and I'm looking forward to see them in a combo...

by Tanjaatje Sun Jan 20, 2013 11:15 am

Wow, great!! A reallife picture!!! Different then I expected, have to see it for real and maybe search for the nicest set Wink

Does anyone know what the UK prices will be? I am looking forward to seeing the new beads on Saturday.

TB is changing the prices?

I think they will be going back down to the price before the last increase, a glass bead will be £23 instead of £26 lets hope it helps LD keep selling Trollbeads.

Thank you for the info, I thought that I had read this somewhere. My SIL and I are coming into Acotis to see the new beads on Saturday, weather permitting.

by Seahorse Sun Jan 20, 2013 11:21 pm

I love that kit! Thanks for showing it to us so early. The flower bead is definitely my favourite.

by Hisae Mon Jan 21, 2013 10:56 am

Great kit!! Thank you for sharing pic cyclops

by MistyMoon Mon Jan 21, 2013 4:24 pm

Thank you for the photo, Arwen! Would love to see your new beads in action!

Must go check out the Rocky Beach kit (not too sure about the bumpy beads tho), might need multiples of a few instead of getting the entire kit. I also like the silver coral, starfish and sea urchin. There was also a new shipment of ooaks and amber that arrived last week and I haven't had a chance to see them yet!!

Ahhhh - NEED MONEY!! Credit Card

I really like this release. Some super ideas in there.

by Michelle Mon Jan 21, 2013 11:22 pm

Ahh thats a shame i'm not working on saturday but will be there friday for release day it would have been lovely to meet you, which of the two shops are you going to?
I had a quick look at the new beads today the wish list gets longer Wink

by cottinghamgirl Tue Jan 22, 2013 7:14 pm

We are going to Harborne because I think there will be more beads to choose from as it is bigger than the Tettenhall branch. Perhaps we will see you when we are having a Troll shopping trip another time.

by Michelle Tue Jan 22, 2013 10:05 pm

On ebay tonight Shocked

by Fleur Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:43 am

I've seen the new beads.
The rocky beach kit is gorgeous I love you

The beads were on the larger side and the core visibly larger then e.g. the agate's core, looked like something between regular core and UU core. Will be a challenge to find nice and smaller beads Very Happy

Love the agate dendritc (who would have guessed Wink

) There will be much variation and like the labradorites you will have to find "your" pretty one.

Regarding the silvers, I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, so no rants here.
The silvers just don't do it for me, others may love them.
The locks look very delicate (will they hold a full bracelet?) and most of the other silvers are rather ligh-weighted, some tiny and/or flimsy.
Holding-on-to-love makes a pretty sculpture bead though.
