Just Whims & Fancies for now...although I'm sure that will change.  I think this was posted somewhere earlier in the thread, but some swatches can be found here http://bycelina.com/beauty-2/reviews-swatches/swatches-of-mac-cine-matics-nordstrom-anniversary/ (Performance Art and Shadowy Lady from "Whims & Fancies", Indie Spirit from "Marché Aux Puces", Raving Mad from "On the Hunt") It's not much, but it's a start! HTH
Thank for this! That orange, purple and brown look awesome! They look like mattes, which I kind of hope they are as I don't have many matte shadows in my collection...just the Matte box by Two Faced. While I like some shimmer, I don't like it from lid to brow bone on a daily basis for work.

I live in Manitoba and I never get anything ;(
You can add your preferred store/counter to the MAC website (go into your account and you'll find it). Alternatively, go to your store and ask to be put on the list. If you are a regular customer at this particular location, it shouldn't be a big deal to add you to the list. :)

I wasn't even considering the eye shadows because I prefer singles to put into palettes, but Raving Mad and Performance Art look really nice. Are there any close shades in the permanent line? That way I could just get it in refill form.

I'm getting excited for this collection. I am really interested in Hidden Treasure blush. I am kinda interested in Supercontinental but am worried it'll be similar to some I have recently acquired. I managed to snag a MM from Tres Cheek off of Nordies so wonder if it would be similar. I also have Fleet Fast.

My tentative list as of now:

Camden Chic
Fashion Nomad
On the Hunt or maybe Whim's and Fancies
Hidden Treasure
Dark Diversion
Local Wares

I am looking forward to trying the fluidlines. I am glad the black is perm. I have an elf one from target I am trying out and it's amazing for 3 bucks but it doesn't have a big of range of colors. Are the fluidlines way better? Also, what's the shelf life for them? TIA! :)

so far I like one lilpglass, all the blushes, no mattenes, and the shadows are a skip. I'm sure I have something similar.

Welp I for sure can skip. So not feeling it.
Aw, not even the blushes?

I want Hidden Treasure for sure, the swatch makes me drool! Not sure about the other two, the coral one looks dupeable. I might get the Marilyn one instead. I still need to see Styleseeker n/p swatches, and I think I'm passing on Fun Finds, it looks too light.

Well ok maybe Hidden Treasure lol. Otherwise skip! Well maybe!

I wonder how Fashion Nomad will compare to Booyah!!! or SLV? What kind of finish is a Mattene? I am getting Camden Chic and would like a second one b/c well I want to check out the formula and one lonely tube would look sad lol. Btw, I wish she swatched Local Wares anyway as someone's ugly isn't always someone else's. Sucks.

Oh! Nice to see some swatches!

The blushes look interesting. I'm still curious about the fluidline even though she said it was ugly lol.
Might hold out for the Marilyn blush as well. Gah, decisions, decisions. I don't think my wallet will hurt too much from this collection.

Can't say that I'm too excited over the collection. Things might change as the release date gets closer though lol.

Thank you for sharing Nayadine! I'm not seeing anything mindblowing, might hold off to decide until I see more swatches. Restless lipglass looks like a copper-toned version of Blessedly Rich. Hidden Treasure is nice, but I want to see what the PLW Blushes look like, too!

I'll decide at next week's event when I can swatch everything for myself. Always hoping I'll want less instead of more.

I know I mistakenly passed on Midnight Snack and Wholesome from the Shop/Cook Collection because they looked dull and murky in the jar. But after reading some great reviews for those shades here on Spektra, I sought them out. I'm really glad I did. They come to life on the eyes and compliment whatever eye shadow you're wearing without overpowering the look. I expect it to be the same for Local Wares.
