Whew! Glad I'm not the only one!
Looks like I'll pass on those babies...my Lightful CP just came in the mail!
Maybe that's why MAC makes the name a sticker for the lip gelees instead of printing it on the tube...

Those items have stickers because they're "samples", as in someone working for MAC received them to test or play around with. If you check the swatch threads, there are pics of many upcoming collections items with stickers on them.
If you read the earlier posts, someone else already mentioned how similar those lipgelees looked to those of the Lightful collection in Asia, so you're not alone.

The last 2 or 3 Lipgelee's I've purchased directly from a MAC counter have had a sticker on the tube with the color/name instead of the name being printed directly on the tube. Ex - Moonstone, Amber Russe. It's a small clear label with black writing. These were not samples, and were purchased BNIB from MAC. My Who's That Lady is the same way also.

You're joking!
We definitely need a smiley that clutches its chest.
How, oh, how, are we supposed to spend May saving up for C-Shock when we're mercilessly clobbered with one collection after another?
What are the five May collections, dare I ask?

The color stories are in the color collections. But they are: Slimshine, Strange Hybrid, Moonbathe, tendertones, and Sunstrip. Lots of awesome stuff.
Oh and if you count the nordstrom only quad, its 6!

ok got sugar shock and she-boom! in the mail today
she-boom! is very similar to cello pink, but without the pearl that cello pink has. it is also a touch darker and had a touch more purple in it. it is a cream finish. id say it has better colour payoff than cello pink
argh my tube of sugar shock was kind of split at the top so ive melted the plastic to try and press it back together so now it looks vey ugly but there is still product trying to seep through the crimp at the top.
it kind of looks like a flat, almost bricky red in the tube until you hold it up to the light - it gets these bright "cello pink" coloured swirls through it. i dont personally own Moistly but i think it'd be a lighter version of that but with less red and more purple. it is very sheer on the lips, kind of like a sheer red berry.
and now, for the absolute worst pictures ever. i had to take them on my phone sorry as i still dont have a camera. i tried lip swatch photos - they turned out even worse then these ones so i deleted them
dewy jube, sugar shock, she-boom!, cello pink

WOW...I played with this collection today at update and the colors are more vivid than you all can even imagine. Every single color is full of pigment. It was crazy! I was blending like crazy to tone down the colors!
You are all gonna fall in LOVE, I promise. It's a MAC fiend's dream.
