Wasn't there a Danube in this collection? I can't find it on the website

 
I just finished catching up on this thread and my speedy made it to "order in preparation"

I return with some thoughts...
  • I have mixed feelings on whether it this should be branded a "speedy bandoulière"
  • I'm ecstatic it's not a bandoulière in the same way the permanent collection speedy Bs are -- I've never been a fan of the leather strips down the sides or the way attaching a strap there encourages the bag to fold into itself
  • AND because it means this cutie gets that side pocket!
  • ANDDD because it means it had the little tabs on the sides, which I just personally like the appearance of a lot (especially compared to the full leather strips on traditional speedy Bs)
  • with that said, I will be very, very disappointed if mine is made in US because I don't like how naked the little tabs looks without any "made in" embossing, which you lose when you get the cloth tag
  • I wonder why the speedy B wasn't designed like this in the first place -- with the extra metal behind the handles -- I love this because it's also very subtle when you aren't using a strap (whereas on the speedy B there's metal D rings openly hanging off the sides)
  • I would die if the Game On speedy came with the clochette that the vanity case has... I wonder if I'll be able to order it for my cutiepie
  • I'm disappointed by the cube coin purse, like, a lot; I know it's probably offensive to most everyone who has taste haha, but I think my Giant cube (purple, yellow, black & white trim) will look be perf on my speedy instead
  • kinda bummed Zoe didn't come in black
  • I'm shocked by the lack of photos on the site of these pieces... there's a huge design on the right side of the speedy, but 0 showcasing of it
  • the card case is such a cool piece; I would definitely be buying this had the cart slots been of the horizontal variety (even though I still probably would never have used it as a card case even then but rather as decor haha, but we all have to have parameters for not succumbing to these kinds of impulses, and one of mine is refusing to own anything w vertical card slots)
I'm so excited!!!! this will be my first speedy 25
The GO speedy B is made in Italy and it is embossed on the tab. The heart bag is likewise MII. The card case is MIS. I believe the Kirigami is MIF. Those are all the items I bought.
 
I was able to order the Kirigami through my SA. She did however say her location got none of the special packaging and she doesn’t believe they will get any at all. Has anyone else encountered this?
 
Is there confirmation whether the Game On print is silk-screen or if it's coated canvas? I'm debating the Kirigami, which would be a lot less appealing if I had to be extremely careful with it to avoid chipping...
