Trollbeads Retireds 2013

With a large release at hand in only a few weeks, often a retirement of beads follows suit.
The list of beads retiring this year is huge... Our overview of all beads, locks and else in this retirement.

Crikey! They would have to retire the pearl lock wouldn't they.Grr!

Wow, so many good ones are going!

The Kiss and the Seals nooo... and see? The old Dolphins bead... so glad I just got one

Wow, that's a lot!

Oh good - lot of beads that I like are being replaced with lots of bead that I don't like. Hopefully that leads to carefully selected bargain buys and avoidance of full price purchases.

BB, I think in the same way...

Anyone else thinking the remaining locks that are going to be available are going to be quite plain?

Ok so that's my purchases planned for the next year

Sad the small berry is going as I think it's much nicer than the new winter berries

Art Deco, Small Planet, Small Berry, Kiss, Carved Flowers, Dichroic Flowers lock, Pearl lock...

I am sad

Must also get my gold initial bead before it's too late...better start saving

First thing to get will probably be the carved flowers and another pearl lock, must give it a thorough thought! But some beads do not mean anything to me, I don't care for them.

wow, the entire gold alphabet.
sorry to see small berry and small planet go.
even though I do not own most of these, it is sad.

Oh dear, all my good intentions of not buying are being tried with some of these. I really want the Garnet, Carved Flowers, Champion and (in my dreams) bi-coloured Happy Fish.

That is quite a lot, but luckily only one that's still on my wish list; the small berry

I'm not so fussed about the silvers, but I'm sad to see so many beautiful glass beads go and especially the locks

Luckily I have most from my wishlist but I can see I need to add a few...

Oh no - so much beads - and the golden Lions

I'm sad to see Art Deco and the silver/gold 2+2 go :'(

those are the only ones i would be wishing for too Catsworld,
we are thinking alike
Carved Flowers and Pearl Lock,altough never seen a Pearl Lock at my LD...

TrollRose, I got both, but in that case it is absolutely worth to get doubles, I am now relieved that the new spring collection does mean so little to me...

I have all I want from this list of retireds so I'm not too sad.

2+2 and the locks are the real losses imo, they should have stayed in the collection. Oh...and the little berries too.

So my name and from DH is now retired,glad i have them
So sad for the 2+2,tempted to buy a second one now,it is so nice

Kathleen, is it only the bicolor? I cannot see the gold 2+2, it is not that much more expensive in gold...

Yes only the bicolor i think

I like the bicolor more than the gold version (strange isn't it
