I asked the MUAs at my counter if it would be just in the freestanding stores (or pro store since that's the only one we have) and they told me no.

I didn't know what. Ugh! I'm not the biggest fan online collections because I'd like to play with and test the product in person before I purchase it. Grrrr. Come on MAC!!!! It's not fun when y'all's website is flooded! Slow city!

I see, thanks for the info :) I guess i'll try to get a cp too then, really don't wanna miss out on Party Parrot and Pink Pigeon this time.

Well, my MUAs told me that their update (end of October) was unusually late and that it only covered collections that will be released until February.

I wouldn't be too concerned, were there any big collections with quads etc that weren't released in the Netherlands lately? I can't remember any for Germany.

I have a feeling swatches are gonna be HTF because of the online nature of the collection, but I hope I am wrong about that!

It comes out before Après Chic and Strength in the US so I would think it would be the same here, but now that I think of it Glamglass arrived very late here as well.

what a disappointment with these eyeshadows...I'll skip all of it

thanks for the swatch link.  

i think i will skip the shadows and go for the nail polish and fluidlines. i know the fluidlines are permanent, but i've been meaning to get them for a while anyway....

Swatches of lipsticks please :) 

thanks for the link. maybe the shadows are better this time around. the texture, and color payoff. also the new naval is supposed to have a different finish and not matte like the pro one, which is probably the one that carrie has. just my 2 cents.

I want to see Nocturnal Instinct and Unconvential swatches so i will know if im skipping this or not

This collection is looking really good for me. Only all of the mattene lipsticks and Waveline Fluidline for sure. Maybe Revenge is Sweet and Perky lipglasses. That's it. No BUs. For some weird reason I have no urge to BU Mattenes even if I love the color. I can't explain it. Waveline is permanent so no BUs needed there.

Damn I am trying to narrow down my list so i crossed of the NP but now that i have seen the purple one, they are back on my list!  need to see the blush and the lippies! i already know im getting perky and revenge is sweet. Im going to the black frieday release at macys, im trying to figure out which items im going to get. ( i can only afford 2, since im going to disneyland the following week!!). After i get the two from macys, im going to nordies and preordering the other items =)

I've decided to brave Black Friday this year, but only for this collection. I'm not foreseeing a nightmare situation at the store I plan to go to. I just want to get these items early instead of waiting for next year.

      i thought this collection was coming out on dec 13th???

there's definitely too many collections. no one is able to keep up with what collection is coming out when, or how many times....and exactly what is in these collections....maybe this is a new MAC tactic....confuse the customers....they'll get disoriented, panic, and buy everything.....

It probably does. I'm so confused. I thought I read somewhere that this collection comes out early at Macy's only for Black Friday, and then doesn't come out again until January. But that could just be some other collection coming out in January that I got mixed up with this one.
