== Bung Box 8th Anniversary Pen ==


'''Myke Hurley:''' So I moved this up. Let's not beat around the bush, Myke. I saw this this morning. Yeah, I saw it too. The Bung Box 8th Anniversary pen. It's not just the 8th Anniversary pen. It's the 4B pen, which if you don't know what 4B is, it's the Bung Box Blue Black Ink, which is one of my favorites, one of the greatest inks ever made, right up my alley. And then they've gone and made a pen related to it, and not just any pen. They've gone and run rings around the barrel and, I guess, lacquered in the low parts of the ridges. And, I mean, is there even a full barrel shot of this pen? Not that I've seen. Bits and parts, but I guess I'm just going to have to have another pen sell. This is so on brand for me. Like, I have to get it, right? I mean, it is the company with the ink that I love making the pen in one of the most unique styles.

'''Myke Hurley:''' This might be, you know, without even getting it at hand, might be my second favorite behind, you know, the original pink, the original pink love.

'''Myke Hurley:''' This one's going to be difficult to get.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' They're doing a pre-sale on their mailing list thing, which I don't know how to get onto.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Right? Like, it's like, do I even try? Is it worth the frustration? Like, do I want to run circles around this?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' My plan is to do what I have done in the past. Keep my eye on their Instagram. They'll sell what they sell, and then they'll have some extras, and they'll say we're going to put them up on the website, and then I'll see if I can get one. I do really want it.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I think it looks stunning, but... Does any of the documentation say how many they're making? No. I mean, traditionally, they make 100, but certainly they're making more nowadays. They're so popular.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, I haven't seen anything to suggest what they're doing now.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I hope it's not 100.

'''Myke Hurley:''' That'd be bad.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yep. Bad for you.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, this one, like, I just, like, I saw this, and I just shook my head. And I was like, oh, gosh. Yeah. It's a good one, right? It's great. It's great. It's just great. Like, no one can pull this off as well as Bung Box does, in my opinion. I know a lot of people do it, but, man, this one's something.
