I can tell you some of them, though I don't recognize all of them. Fafi, Blonde Brunette Redhead, Naked Honey, Smoke Signals, Naughty Nauticals, Cool Heat, and Sugar Sweet. I'm not sure about the other pictures though. I've been looking up the color stories for them today to decide what to vote for.

OMG perfect topping is my favorite MSF for highlighting!

Somehow I thought that the products would involve us specktrettes voting.... tripping, right?

Thanks! I have to say that that's a really unnecessarily complicated way of doing things. Why not just launch 10 products at once? I'm wondering if the launch will be simply the top choices, or if Mac will take the top choices from each category- shadows, blushes, lipsticks, etc. I kind of suspect it'll be the latter.


I was sort of surprised by those too, since both collections seemed to hang around for a very long time, so I assumed they weren't that successful. I'd assume from Sugar Sweet that they'd be looking at the MSFs, particularly Perfect Topping.

Personally, I was surprised to see Blonde, Brunette, Redhead in there, because so many of the products from that collection have been repromoted already, or have easy dupes within the regular collection.

But what really surprised me was seeing the image for Colour Ready in there. That collection was all permanent items! http://www.temptalia.com/mac-cosmetics-colour-ready-collection-information-photos

Anyway, I'll be curious to see what items make the list and which ones make the cut.
The return of the green wig!

I hope Show Orchid isn't one of the products picked. It gets repromoted all the time besides being a Pro item, so that would be a wasted opportunity for products that haven't been around in years.

Ooh I'd love to get a Cult of Cherry product! I still hear about how awesome the Spiced Chocolate quad and Jampacked lipglass are. Actually, looking back at swatches, a lot of the CoC products look amazing.

Tx Knope! I am going to go through all these collections to find out more on the colors. I need to make a list so I know what I want to vote for when the time comes. I'm a little sad that blueberry fizz & jungle juice lipsticks aren't on the lists. Starflash e/s I have heard wonderful things about so I am excited to vote on those.

Specktra used to have a list of all the old Color Collections but since the new board was launched, I can't find it. Anyone know where it went?

You're welcome! I generally get really into MAC for a while and then back off for a while, and a lot of those collections were ones I was sorry I missed. I really want Jungle Juice too, and I was sad it wasn't promoted with the Cindy collection. I will vote for Perfect Topping and Port Red as much as they let me, and I never tried a Starflash so I'll vote for that as well. I get the feeling this collection will sell out in about 30 minutes online, so serious stalking will have to happen.

Just for your information, guys and gals, the blogger who posted the news explicitly says that there are currently no news from which collections the pre-selected items will be.
I think those images are merely a collage of past Mac collections.

What I understood from that post:

There will be two votes in total:
1) vote via facebook app in March from 20 pre-selected discontinued/le items - 5 items will be chosen
2) every day (!) for two weeks there will be also a possibility to vote for your favourites from 18 pre-selected items. 5 most voted for items will be released online only. This vote will also being taking place in March.

So, if I understand it correctly, there will be plenty items to choose from! I really hope that we will be getting Queen's Sin with this collection finally!!!

You can still find NH stuff in CCO's (in case you live close to one). I also liked the products of this collection and would love to see them repromoted.
