Finally, something close to a red TWSBI. Not exactly red, but red-adjacent. "Plum", they're calling it. It looks like it'll be an Onyx again, too, so probably about $60. Not out until the 29th, so some time to ponder/decide. I do like it, but I'm not sure I need/want another ECO. Maybe they'll do a 580ALR in red sooner than I thought.

Photo of a TWSBI ECO fountain pen with dark reddish-purple cap and tail. It appears to have a black nib and accents/clip. It is laying on a table next to a plum cut in half, exposing its inside, which is a similar color to the pen cap and tail.

I should add I have three shades of red ink in TWSBI pens but none of those pens are red because they haven't had any pen close to red in their lineup for >2 years. Which makes it more likely I'll get this, just a weird omission on their part.
