They were so stylish, they were not just white and green/blue
I'm on the Taipei Metro and just saw an ad for Taipei Metro branded Pilot Metropolitan pens, I could not get a photo and could not find them online within 5 minutes but I am absolutely obsessed
I think I'm just innately suspicious of buying things at full price from a brand's own store but that's the only place they sell it haha I should look for second hand sometime
I've tried the lamy hanzi/calligraphy nib so many times in store without buying it, it's practically a staple of my tourist activities, I can't buy it now or I'll lose the experience

The Lamy Safari-shaped brush pens (mine is from the company 大風大創, but they are made in China) are actually quite nice. The brush tip is a bit drier and stiffer than my Pentel Pocket brush pen
The Sailor pen & ink gift sets come with neither a cartridge nor converter so there's no way for the recipient to try out the pen without outside help LOL
