== Brand Release Strategies and Product Updates ==

* Um, yeah, it's just, I should, my whole point in putting this in here is I should stop being confused about this because they release a lot of pins now. It's not just the singular, singular big release, which I'm actually, as a brand, like I'm cool with that. Right. You know, give me a couple big, you know, SE releases a year. Unlike, like say like sailors, the opposite. There's like one or two a month. Like that's too much. Right. I don't, I don't need that, but I don't know. I just feel like this one gets a little bit more lost in the shuffle when it should be given equal stance, but that's, um, that's a me problem, I think. Um, but I think these look great there. They're, and these are full product lineup releases, right? This is roller ball, ballpoint pencil, I believe. Um, and I, they haven't totally switched over to the M17. Like they're, they're confusing the M17 rollout. That's the jet stream refill. They have one pin that's going to have the jet stream rollout and not the other ones. And I am just like, again, like it's a Midori MD Kickstarter situation. Like it's all the things and like confusing and things like that. But anyway, they're good. I like them. I especially like the blue one. I don't know. So this will be a good mix and match if you want to make your own. Um, but anyway, yeah, Lamy All-Star. I guess there'll probably be a Safari here. Probably not too long. It seems like there was one just a month or two ago. So a new release of an old pin. I think that's kind of the theme today is there's no like new, new pins, but there's a lot of pins that I like are coming out in new colors, new designs. Pilot Pereira dropped one on us this week. And I found this one to be interesting. So there's new four, four new Pereira colors, honey, Empress Teal, cinnamon Brown, and porcelain white. Okay. So the Pereira lineup has done, has done solid, full solid barrel pins. And then they've done demonstrators with like jewel color, like finials on there. All really, really good.
