One thing I do have to say about the Amber Palette after using it for the first time is you do get a very pretty but tame neutral look because both very shimmery shades Creative Copper and Don't Tell are kind of shear if using a brush like a 252 or 242 so if you want more shimmer with them I would suggest using a very sticky base or foil them, foiling them does give them a more metallic metal look ^_^ Also foiling Pepper, Please turns it into a black brown with glitter flecks ^_^ I am hoping to see the purple palette in person to see if it's something I want .

I got mine yesterday (Amber), I love it so far!! I like the tiny pans, you still get more product than in a quad for the same price. Here's a photo I posted yesterday on my IG:

I need to try foiling Pepper, Please! I agree, the look this palette creates is definitely more subtle. I'm also curious about the purple palette. I have a couple of the shades in it (Satellite Dreams and Shadowy Lady), but if it performs well then it might still be worth it.

This actually sounds good. And I think the Amber palette could compliment well the Warm x 15 and the Gravitas palettes that I have as they don't have that many light shades. I have these two palettes and just some quads at my disposal atm and I'm really feeling the lack of light shades. I have no idea when these are coming to my Mac though, must ask.
