I did get to thinking that since it is vp I may get in anyway.

Nile ES is kind of reminding me of Judy Blue. I'll have to see/compare them in person.

is this 100% true? if so i'd be ecstatic for not having to buy everything from eBay.

Yes, this is 100% true! Confirmed again by a live chat and the whole store of MA's!

I thought Pagan looked a lot like Bitter. If that's the case, then better to skip the eye shadows altogether. I'll just get Pro Palette refill of Aqua, that'll be cheaper anyway. That leaves more money for the other items in the collection, but I may pass on the green Paint Pot too. It looks like Chartru paint, so I probably don't need it, but I'm loving this Paint Pot formula, so I may just have to get it anyway.

That's good to hear for all of us who don't have it.

here is the transcript of live chat i did.

info: Welcome to MAC Cosmetics Online. One of our Artists will be with you shortly.
info: Hello. Thank you for your interest in MAC Cosmetics. My name is Stacey. How may I assist you?
me: Hi Stacy
me: I have a question about Alexander McQueen collection
me: Will this collection be available worldwide?
Stacey: Hi! Yes, as far as I know it will.
me: So it will be like a regualar collection, not like last years Zandra Rhodes collection
Stacey: That is correct
me: Thank you very much. I was afraid that it will be released in select Europe and Asia locations only.
Stacey: Not as far as I know, but since it isn't launching until October we don't have a lot of information yet.
me: Thank you very much. I'll inquire again at a later date.
me: Have a nice day.
Stacey: Thank you for visiting MAC Live Chat!

Anyone seen Masque l/s in person? That's the only product I'm interested in other than the MSF.

TIA

I was thinking the same thing. but I'm a sucker for that yellowy green color so I'll probably get it anyways.

I just did a live chat with a MAC artist Amy and she said that she did not see anything about the release date for this collection being pushed back and that it is october 4th!

we got an in-store memo last week saying everything got pushed back a week, except for the fall trend bags.

did anyone else get this memo?

well, I asked the SA's at Queens Center Mall, at the store and counters, and a MAC in Manhatten, and they all said it was still coming out on the 4th.

 

[erine1881]

it might just be a regional thing. i will double check the memo when i go in on friday and let everyone know what i find out. i guess we will know for sure come the 4th.

 

[BunnyBunnyBunny]

Currently, my counter is going to release McQueen on the original date!

 

[BloodMittens]

WAHHH! October is taking too long to get here!
