Trollbeads Fall Release 2011 details

SnorkMaiden wrote:MM, what then does "rampant" mean, is it reserved for a single creature in heraldic terms?

I'm no expert but I believe so. Rampant is when the creature is standing on it's hind legs like the Scottish Royal Lion. When paired creatures are facing each other in the rampant position it's combatant.

Apparently it is not necessary to use the term rampant if they are combatant.

Yeah, I guess it is obvious if they are combatant that they are not passant or dormant (unless they've been standing there for a while and need a rest).

.....or stopped to look at Trollbeads in a shop window

They don't look tired to me.

The two trolls wouldn't really be my kind of bead but it would be a really cool idea. Would be interesting to see what it looked like.

I can't wait to see the new release. I'm hoping for some dark glass beads and I'll be interested to see what the new glass 2 beads are.

I wonder whether the 2 Trolls will be hugging a glass globe or even a stone?

i wonder if they will have CZ's in them or some sort of foil like the earth, cave or mountain beads??

I am still patiently waiting for my Ocean and Volcano beads !

MM, there's the beach and the lava bead! Isn't that close enough?

More shiny things, more, more!

Now those two beads sound positively brilliant!!

I'd be happy with more beads with foil but as for the cz's, I think I'm over them! The flower ones really didn't appeal to me. But, if we all liked the same thing wouldn't it be boring!!!

Well, if there is one thing that I am truly hoping for this Fall release, that is that the size of the beads wouldn't be that huge.

Those CZ flowers were huge and fat, and also the latest release of the glass beads, with the sea urchin etc. also contained those massive beads.
What happened to the tiny ones? I want them back!

I don't like the tiny beads. My Red China bead is very small and doesn't have much detail, it just looks like a poor wee thing next to all my other glass.

So what about a nice medium size of 14 mm?
(good, that all sizes can be found)
I like my beads to be on the smaller side too to match the small silvers.

Regarding the Troll logo:
There could also be a plain silver bead (like Love within) with the logo engraved and oxydized.

Keep coming back to this topic to see if there are already some pics! So excited, it all sounds so great Hopefully there will be more news before this saturday (wishful thinking), because I'm going away for two weeks and will not be able to check the internet/forum

Awww, send the poor wee thing home to me.

I use a mix, but I rather like the smaller beads.

thanks for the tip :-)
