Lovely pens you got there 😍. Fortunately the Galattica collection is not North America exclusive which would make the price of those pens for EU residents unjustifiably high after shipping and taxes, so I was able to get one too. I had both the Universe and the Nebula, but decided to send the Universe back. The resin of the Nebula is absolutely stunning 😍
Hi, Karen. Yeah, I’m surprised that they’ve lasted this long in stock. I jumped on it early b/c I didn’t want to miss out on it like I missed the Paraiso. Those colors are amazing.
Oh I really wanted the Hades as well but had just found a momento zero grande with the mother of pearl that I wanted for more than 6 monts and the Elastic extra fine 14k I wanted and thats my budget foe the next 6 to 12 months lol. Glad I didnt get the Hades, I was expecting a more matte pen too.
Hi, Ric. Congratulations on the mother of pearl. I kick myself for missing out on that one. The Hades look did disappoint a bit but it writes fantastically. I’m not sure why it looks so different than the photos.
Beautiful pens! The 14 k Leonardos are so much wetter than the steel. I think the ebonite feeds make all the difference. The steel nibs are great writers too though especially with wet inks.
I agree! The steel nibs with plastic feeds are really great! They're controlled and tamed. The 14k Leos and their ebonite feeds make the flow SOOO wet!! Great for very dry inks. I love Nekoyanagi in my gold nib Leos. It's THE BEST experience I've had with that very dry ink. I am thinking of trying HAHA in my Mother of Pearl next time! xD
Hi. Yes the 14k’s are great. I find that mine can be a bit leaky at times but you are right they are much, much wetter. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate you!
Hi Terry xD I agree with you that the photos they take do not show off the glitters and chatoyance well AT ALL! But knowing Leonardo x Endless, their Leonardos are usually very shiny, and that's how I like my Leonardos, so I always get theirs! I personally am happy that you confirmed they are sparkly and shiny. I LOVE the soft golden colors of the pen...you got a BEAUTIFUL mix of both the yellow and black. I'm sorry it wasn't satiny and matte-ish like the picture portrayed them. Mine are arriving on Friday/Saturday this week. I made a request to them, and they didn't tell me how long it would take to complete my request, so I just said, "send me my pens, I don't care about the request anymore!" LOL! The Planetery Nebula uses the same resin as the Paraiso!! So I'm happy you were able to get it! Your camera showed off the teal green of that pen SO WELL! :D My camera probably showed it more blue in my first Leonardo video from last year. So happy for you!! ^_^
Hi, Lao. Please do a video on yours. I would love to see them. I wrote with the Hades today at work and it is wonderful. Not the look I anticipated but the nib more than makes up for it. Plus it is beautiful as is. I hope you are feeling better!

Beautiful pens. I’m doing the Atlanta pen show next week. Chanelling my engeries to find the right Leonardo for me.
Take your time. The right one will come. You have a solid collection. Even better because most were gifts.

I really wanted the Nebula (that mother of pearl thing 😍) but decided I’m too late. Love seeing yours - they’re both beautiful 💗
You’re not too late. They are still available. I just checked for you. Go ahead…you know you want it 😃

That Hades is beautiful!
Hi, Marsha. Thank you. I’ve been enjoying it. Not exactly how I expected it to look but it’s a nice writer.
