    Hey every1
    I think i might've found a pen to replace the RSVP since u cant get them here. Its a Superb-G(Or Hyperb G, one of them). It spins just like a normal R.S.V.P but you can wrap tape around the end (just infront of the black thingy). Wrapping the tape around it makes the pen longer and the cap stays on.

    Hyperb


    Franchville



    I don't think it would be. The grip is much longer then a normal rsvp and I think the cap is shorter and backcap is longer. I've never actually seen an rsvp before though, so I wouldn't know. There was also the Franchville pen, which looked exactly like an RSVP. i'll try to find the pic.

    Edit:got pic

    i don't think it's a good replacement for RSVP..
    ive had this pen for a while..its not that good..

    length: 19.5
    weight: don't know wat to compare with..

    the grip is way to long to be replaced by one hgg so i used 2 small left over of anyball grips to cover it up..

    The yellow back cap and grip of the Franchville match the yellow comssa cap perfectly for anyone who wants to make a MSXA with the yellow comssa cap

    in the picture of the frenchvilles, the barrels look rough, but that may just be the bad quality

    and sparkly stuff is always good^^

    Date: Mon, Sep 17 2007 08:24:44

    WhiteFang: From what I know Franchvilles are only available in Australia.

    Guys I'm going down to the shops this Saturday, I'll look out for some Franchvilles. If I see any I'll buy loads to send some people smile.gif. (for a little trade).

    @WhiteFang... I don't have any, I saw them on UCPSB and they looked a lot like rsvp's so i posted them here. They are Australian and can be bought at Art shops I think. Not 100% on that tho.

    just yesterday, my brother bought a pentel Hyperb V from HK and i think it looks more like rsvp. it has a shorter cap than the Hyperb G but a longer back part than the rsvp. It doesn't have a grip, instead it a bumpy plastic bit and it comes with a metal tip.

    *bump*

    Recently there have been quite a few number of Japanese traders looking for the Francheville Glitter Gel pens, so has anyone actually got any of those Franchevilles yet?

    You can get HGGs (100% sure) and RSVP's (50% sure) in Officeworks.

    Date: Thu, Apr 17 2008 07:43:43

    You can't get RSVPs in Australia, period.

    I heard that the grips on these were different from rsvp it texture huh.gif
    ma by better, anyone know?

    I just want to say that if anyone hasn't noticed by now, these are the saviors of yellow RSVPs since the downfall of Sunbursts. We need to convince Francheville that these glitter gel pens are wanted!

  37. soulsonic
    Date: Fri, Apr 18 2008 17:26:14

    yeah the yellow looks pretty nice, and they look exactly like rsvp's except that the body is glittery which is kinda gay, but the grip might do, some one get hold of these so i can trade!

  38. dust_kid
    Date: Sat, Apr 19 2008 05:22:02

    What happened to the Sunbursts Eso?

    I don't live near art shops so I can't get any, does anyone in Australia live near an art shop or are going to go to some soon?
