Personally I think the rock paper scissors charm is a very (ahem) charming piece to own! It’s totally one of those IYKYK pieces but also the olive color really makes it easy to match on many bags. Adding your HMC dice charms to it sounds like an idea too! Personally I think the Calcifer one would look great with this, but I’m planning to pair Turnip Head with a black charm strap and maybe an additional leather embellishment, similar to what I did with the Kaonashi dice from last year. Heh
 
I visited my pop-up today, and had a very pleasant time.

Was not surprised to see that the majority of the items left over were Calficer items (even some people were vocally complaining about not finding anything other than Calcifer), Heen stuff was also available. I was surprised to see all of the Turnip Head stuff sold out, I guess JWA didn't anticipate how popular he would be.

Surprisingly, all of the charms (including dice) were in stock, didn't expect it. I saw the rock paper scissors Christmas tree one in person and fell in love it, so much for my "I'm only going there to take pictures". haha.

What was available was weird. Most of the RTW were out of stock, and they just had display units out, that they weren't allowed to sell. The 23 Amazona (light blue) was available, however, one of them had horrible creases on Sophie's face.. (it's too soon for her to get wrinkles!). The cow bags and charms were also available. and the big shocker... The Castle behemoth backpack was available as well!!

I also wore my new black puzzle today, and noticed that there was a black stain on my white shirt from the strap... I hope it's not permanent...
May I ask which store you went to? I've been trying to get a calcifer brass dice since my Selfridges order for it was cancelled last night. :(
 
Sadly, I've packed it up already, but its similar to the images on the website, just more muted bright olive green. The product image on the LOEWE website is a really good representation. But the image of it on the Amazona 23 is really dark, but you can see how it looks like when attached to a bag.

It's one of those "if you know, you know" pieces. I've never gotten a charm from LOEWE, but this was got my attention, especially since we finally figured out where it came from. And I also think that unlike the other charms, you can actually add a lot to it from other collections without it being too much.

JWA just posted a forwarded photo on his IG of the rock paper charm in daytime light

Thanks everyone! I have been inspired to pull the trigger! Let's see if this one actually goes through since it's still ATB :biggrin: I don't really have a bag to put it on yet but eventually I will buy a hammock....

First-time user here! I bought a calcifer blueberry trifold wallet online. Went in-store at Sydney and they had the two puzzles in rust left, baby blue heen puzzle mini, calcifer cardholder, and one last black calcifer flamenco left in stock and a lot of RTW. I bought the black flamenco (my first designer/Loewe purchase!). The SA was really nice and gave me an extra howl bag, 3 notebooks (bc I asked nicely!), and extra bag tags! Was a great experience but not so good for my wallet haha. It’s been so nice reading everyone’s experience with the collection.D88F76CF-8219-4C60-ACE7-02D2DA4F2472.jpegView attachment 5708621CB6BD9CC-72A4-4E74-9E5A-C433F5CD6269.jpeg

I’m looking for the turnip head charm! Any leads on where I might be able to source one? Bummed that I keep on missing it on the Loewe website.
I kept missing it too so I ordered from momoland Tokyo. Paid an extra fee but still cheaper than resellers and worth it to me to make sure I was able to secure it. Missed too much stuff from SA that I now regret
 
My order for Calcifer dice in calfskin just shipped! I’m still waiting for the magical sky coin cardholder.
I wasn’t able to delete the small strap in my cart & get the dice only, since calcifer dice was part of the dice charm customiser.
