Did anyone else buy something totally different than they were intending because of the long wait? I was originally planning on getting the feather flamenco, but after 20min or so of waiting for the items to become available, I decided I didn't like that only the front had feathers and really liked the magical sky fleece, which I hadn't seen detailed photos of before...

First time poster! Just want to say everyone here has been a godsend in terms of photo leaks, reminders about the pre launch date (I confused the timing so I totally did not realize the launch was today until I saw messages on this forum), and real time updates on the website’s availability. You’re all saints, and I hope you got everything on your wishlist!
Howl’s Moving Castle is not just my favorite Studio Ghibli movie, but also one of my favorite movies of all time! I was MOTIVATED to buy from this collection, and this forum helped me get everything I wanted! Crossing my fingers now that nothing gets cancelled!

Me too and thank youI hope your order did process! Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
I'm not sure I can stand in the snow/rain/freezing cold waiting to get into the store...
Has anyone seen photos comparing the "Rust" colour to the usual Loewe tan? I want to get the Calcifer strap for my medium tan puzzle but I'm not sure if the colour will be too different. I know the hardware is different but I don't mind.
Update: I lingered too long and it sold out LOL. Good thing I managed to get the sweater that was at the top of my wishlist!

Thanks for the info about the SSN/etc. number - maybe I'll drop them a line. I'm in Hong Kong so there won't be hidden taxes or import charges so maybe it's not relevant.
Still dithering over my second order. Markl nugget and charm? I'm now looking at the T Tote with Howl and Sophie on ... that wasn't on the preview sites I'd been looking at, although I did see it in one of the publicity shots. There were a few things in the collection I hadn't seen before this presale, actually. Kind of fun to see new stuff but a bit frustrating if you've carefully planned your list then something random you want appears!
Can I say how much I love the capes? Out of my budget, made of a fabric I can't wear, not sure how they'd look on my body shape - I'm not getting one. But I love them.

What did you get??
So happy to see more people whose favourite movie is Howl's Moving Castle
The prices in CAD were a lot higher than I expected so no bags for me this time but so happy I managed to get the magical sky coin cardholder after frantically refreshing for an hour lol fingers crossed it doesn't get cancelled!!
Our top choices for names for our future kids are Sophie and Calcifer so... LOL
At least it's inclusive of taxes, duty and shipping! I hate getting the surprise of extra duty at the door.
