The green sort of reminds me of that horrifying chartreuse from the Serengeti collection only with shimmer/microglitter. The shimmer makes all the difference to me. Whereas I hated Grassland Safari, I might really like this one. As of this moment, the blue is my favourite for sure.

The green, Roppongi, is not a cream base it is a shimmer base. I am swatching them on my nails right now.

Both of these are two coats, no top coat. I find them to be very sheer.

A delicate pink emulating cherry blossoms
Crimson red for the flag
Maybe a green tea type color - personally i would love one the color of green tea ice cream
Modern Aspect:
Hot pink since it's big in harajuku
A turquoise and purple duochrome
An orange leaning salmon color
Hey I got two right!!

Aw, sad face, I got the your-order-has-shipped email but not the stamps.com one with the tracking. I'm going to assume it's a disappearing email issue (and I already checked spam) and wait until the end of the week to see if it arrives before I poke CS.
My tracking updated and it's out for delivery today, hopefully yours will be there when you get home today!

Uh Huh Her
Fingers crossed! I really want to paint my nails with that blue now because OMG YOU GUYS IT'S SNOWING! This is not an area that gets much snow. It won't last for another ten minutes, but it still puts me in the mood for that blue.My tracking updated and it's out for delivery today, hopefully yours will be there when you get home today!

I'm not surprised. I saw the weather report for the week this morning and laughed, then intepreted it as "it might snow this week, but we really don't know yet."

I find them to be on the sheer side too but I love the purple and blue so much, I'd be willing to do 3 or 4 coats.

Btw, Sara, you might want to make your picture hidden but clickable for those who don't want to see the colors yet... although this thread IS labeled spoilers. ;-)
woops i'm sorry if i messed up the surprise for anyone! i'm still learning......love love love the colors though, and i usually stalk this thread starting on the 30 or 31st, so thanks ladies for all the past spoilers

I didn't mean to sound critical, and as I said, this thread **is** labeled "spoilers."
Toppongi is extremely sheer but interesting. Ginza's almost a chrome. And I do think Shibuya is a duochrome. It looks purplish in the bottle but more pink on the nail, with a blue-purple flash.

Shibuya definitely does get a hint of purple at different angles and I can't get a clear shot of it straight on here because the light keeps reflecting purple back at me.
Ginza is freaking awesome! The shimmer is amazing and almost looks like a foil.
This is only my second square hue box but one thing i've loved about them is that the polishes have SO much shine on their own and dry to such a slick finish that they already look top coated.

lol, I could get a clear shot of Shibuya straight on, where it looks more pink, but couldn't get a good picture of the purple duochrome look!
