You can read all about the timing of the release of these new colors at Marianne's blog. *Hopefully* they will arrive from Japan to the U.S. sometime next month, but the timing for shipments to retailers is still a little sketchy (ha!). I'm sure Marianne will provide updates as soon as they are available.
