Review : PENTEL Black Colors Collection [20th anniversary Limited Edition]

 To celebrate 20 years of ENERGEL pens, Pentel has launched a new limited edition collection.

Black Colors Collection

"The black ink with a hint of colors"

They are sold both separately and individually.

Available in both 0.5mm and 0.7mm.

Refills are also available and sold separately.

A known ENERGEL fanatic, I've picked up both sets to review. 

The pens are retractable and write with the ease that we know of ENERGEL pens. They are also fast drying just like all ENERGEL pens. Simply perfect for lefties like me. 

Here are the swatches

Though new to ENERGEL, the varied black ink colors is not a new concept. I previously reviewed SAKURA Craypas version here

Here's a comparison of the colors between the two. I've tried to pick colors as close as possible but there was no comparable color for the mocha black.

As I previously mentioned, I'm a total ENERGEL fanatic so there was never any possible way I would dislike these pens but in all honesty, the colors are really usable and since its Limited Edition, I'm going to buy a stash of the refills too.

What about you?

New Pentel Energel Colours!

We're big fans of Pentel's Energel line of pens here at TN5C and I was so excited when I saw these in the store. 

Energel is one of the smoothest, most pigmented pens out there so the more colours the better! 

 

All these pens come in singles too so if you only like 1 or 2 colours, you can definitely just buy those. 

The new colours come in 0.7mm which is great for general writing as well as lettering and illustration. 

The new colours include a yellow, peach, fuchsia, light purple, forest green, maroon, brown and light grey. All unique colours that are vibrant and fun! 

Still need a Christmas gift for that stationery lover in your life?

These would be great!
