Re: Trollbeads will release limited edition Chinese Zodiac beads

by trollfinder Tue Dec 06, 2011 6:36 pm

Ooooh, I love these!!!! Yay, Thank you so much for sharing! I always wanted a 2nd set of China silvers. This will be yet another to add to the ever growing layaway pile! Laughing

by Amanda Mac (Dot) Tue Dec 06, 2011 6:54 pm

Don't have any Chinese silvers yet - perhaps these will tempt me!

Well, this may have been the sneakiest peek we had... It appears this content has been removed from the source, so likely these will not be released soon or someone at the source got a warning about it and took the pics down.
Sorry! But we enjoyed it... Wink

Felt like

already with another release... though no... Two cents

Wow, thanks for this information Sita and Sherlock.

Thanks for the pics.
Ahhhhh I need them all....

Thank you for the sneakiest peek ever Sherlock and Smaug Smile

aw bummer. guess it is good for our wallets and OH at least!! Razz

by Joolz Tue Dec 06, 2011 7:38 pm

I might possibly need a Pony

as that's the year I was born in..... I will need to see it IRL though as I didn't get on with my Chinese silvers and sold them as I never used them.... and these do look very similar in design, so I'll just wait and see. Fantastic idea though and I can see these being very popular Very Happy

THANK YOU Sherlock Hurray

DD is a (don't laugh) Golden Pig (Fire Pig) which was considered a VERY lucky sign, so obviously I will want the pig sunny

Apart from that, this household houses a horse and a monkey, so I might get two more. Heck, I might as well get them all. Laughing

But what I like best is that they evoke the spirit of the original China set, which IMO was the most successful and usable LE TB ever released.

by Chewbacca Tue Dec 06, 2011 7:54 pm

No!!!! I can't keep up! I love these... just like the China ones! I hope they won't be too limited. I guess I'll have to find out the popular ones and get those first and then save the "pig, chick, badger" bead until the end! Very Happy

A bit confused about the "info" i was reading from BT concerning the signs.
I think i am a Rooster ?? ( born in 69,now you all know Wink

)
and the month is June 30....does that make me a Horse too ??

by trollbeadslady Tue Dec 06, 2011 8:01 pm

They look lovely. I already have the other Chinese silvers and i am very happy with them. I would like to have the Goat. That is my Chinese zodiac.
Thanks for the sneak preview.

by Brightonbelle Tue Dec 06, 2011 8:23 pm

Nice idea but a lot of the animals look a bit too cutesy for my liking so I may be able to restrain myself to just one or two.

by Artemis Tue Dec 06, 2011 8:26 pm

Oh strange just the other day I worked out what all my family members were for the Chinese zodiac, must have known!! Smile

by twinklebeads Tue Dec 06, 2011 8:30 pm

Thank you Sherlock! They look fantastic, I really loved the Chinese silver & had wondered if they would do something similar Smile

Just have to find a magic money plant to pay for my expensive obsession!!!

You would

to be a cat wouldn't you ?? Wink

by kitsunegrl Tue Dec 06, 2011 8:52 pm

Well, if they aren't being released Dec. 9, then that will give me time to try to build a bead fund!

by eeyore Tue Dec 06, 2011 8:57 pm

"Cheerful and energetic by nature.. . ."

I don't think so............I'm much more an Eeyore than I am a monkey.
Think I'll need to see these IRL, but I believe I'll be spending money elsewhere.

Thanks Sherlock and Admin!!!!!

Does anyone know what the US prices will be? Maybe the same as the Troll coin?

by chocoholic Tue Dec 06, 2011 9:22 pm

Oh no, and I've just clambered aboard the wagon... I'm a tiger, am I the only one?

by Nkara Tue Dec 06, 2011 9:26 pm

OH NO MY HEAD JUST EXPLODED Shocked

And my fiancé looks horrified, he knows what's coming. affraid

Being half chinese this means so much to me and I'm getting the "must... have... all" urge.
But the price... ugh... hope they won't release them on Friday or no one in my family will get xmas presents this year lol

Might start out getting my own (monkey) and my parents (dog and rooster) and maybe my fiance´s and maybe the dragon for next year and maybe oh, wait...

by Silmaril Tue Dec 06, 2011 9:32 pm

I agree with Snowy. The images look a bit more 'cutesy' than the previous LE China beads. I'm sure there will be one or two I'd like. I'm year of the Horse.

by Blairkj Tue Dec 06, 2011 9:54 pm

These look nice. I do have the whole Chinese silver set so hopefully I can resist these and save some dollars.
