Rumor: The Next 3 tokidoki Print Re-Releases Will Be…
Reader Dana spoke with a sales associate who works at the Ala Moana, Hawaii LeSportsac store yesterday and was told that they are re-releasing 3 more prints. Like the Foresta re-release, this will happen in Hawaii and Guam only.
February 2008 - Paradiso
March 2008 - Inferno
April 2008 - L’Amore
This info may or may not be accurate, as it is also rumored that the next print to be re-released will be Citta/Citta Rosa. I guess we’ll all just have to wait and see - but it at least sounds like the wait won’t be too long!

yay inferno! i’ll prepare my wallet for the absurd prices >:x
January 9th, 2008 at 3:38 pm
yea, i spent over $400 for the Foresta print re-release. I was hoping that Tan Playground might make it as a contender. I guess not
January 9th, 2008 at 4:24 pm
paradiso is good, but I was hoping for tan playground. I hope this rumor isn’t totally true.
January 9th, 2008 at 4:53 pm
According to someone else that spoke to Hawaii LeSportsac reps about future re-releases (Joanne, I think it was you?), tan Playground is definitely not going to be re-released.
January 9th, 2008 at 5:00 pm
NO PLAYGROUND RE-RELEASE?!?!?!
Have they lost their minds???
LOL, sorry. But don’t they know how popular that print is?
January 9th, 2008 at 5:09 pm
humm… luckily I already have the bags I want in those prints but even tho they’re popular I thought that at least tan playground would win out.
January 9th, 2008 at 5:17 pm
YAY!!! I didn’t get a chance to get an Inferno when it first came out and now I may have a chance if this rumor is correct!!! =)
January 9th, 2008 at 5:30 pm
I am *SO* jealous of Hawaii. And why Hawaii only? Kind of odd. I’ll get over it though, *sly grin*, because I was scared they were going to re-release Tan Playground or Citta over there. THEN I would cry.

Maybe I can finally snag a Paradiso Zucca . But I just bought a Foresta Gioco for $ 255.00 ouch ! My poor wallet , I wish the retail prices in Hawaii were more reasonable as my Gioco was a Hawaiian re-release ! One of the other prints that I’m missing from my collection is L’Amore , I was hoping that this print was’nt to be on the re-release list because it will drive the existing L’Amore prices on e-bay and other areas for re-sale through the roof ! This is quickly becoming an expensive passion ! And to think after the re-releases are finished the new Tokidoki for Lesportsac bags are to debut in August of this year ! I think as more people find out about Tokidoki as I think they have those bags will be harder to find . It seems that way with the later releases anyways ! Everyone will be stalking their local department stores and on-line sources trying to get their perfect placements !
January 9th, 2008 at 6:21 pm
OMG PARADISO AND INFERNO!! I LOVE THOSE PRINTS! But was always too pricy for me. Thank goodness it’s a month later.. hahah I guess.. Oohh I cannot wait! Even if the rumors are pushed more, more savings for it!
But it totally sucks it’s in Hawaii, when it should be everywhere ^^:; I want to make sure, but they ship to the mainlands right?
January 9th, 2008 at 7:14 pm
Yah it was me =). SA’s in both Waikiki and Ala Moana said that Tan PG is NOT getting released.
Well seems like there is a lot of conflicting news. I spoke to someone in Waikiki (last month) and they said it would be Citta/Citta Rosa. They could be wrong.
I think it’s seem logical for it to be Inferno and Paradiso, since Citta/CR was released before Foresta. ???? I’m confused…lol! I’m really hoping Citta/CR gets released I would love a Citta and CR MM and BV =(
Oh well, I guess we just have to wait and see.
January 9th, 2008 at 7:36 pm
tokipoki - The Hawaii stores will ship to the mainland, but it’s kind of a lost cause. They don’t accept credit cards by phone, so you have to mail them a money order and hope that the item you wanted is still available when the money order reaches the store, because they won’t hold bags for you. And from what I hear, all of the best items sell out within the first day (many of which then wind up on eBay at inflated prices).
Joanne - Citta and Citta Rosa were released at almost the same time as Foresta. If I remember correctly, Citta/Citta Rosa showed up in my local LeSportsac store maybe a week or two before Foresta. They were both from the same season though just like Paradiso/Inferno, so it is still possible that the SA you talked to was correct.

I agree with Stephanie the way the Hawaii Lesportsac stores have their pay-ment plan set up it makes very difficult for us here on the main land to make purchases . With the re-releases already being more expensive it’s hard to send a money order and being very upset when the print placement is less than perfect . I’ve heard from some of the Hawaiian girls that when the Foresta re-release happened alot of the purses had water scenes , ( meaning very little charaters ! ) and they had got there when the doors first opened ! And they said one person was buying a big box of Mamma Mias . I think your best bet is to have someone from Hawaii do a custom purchase for you . So who is willing to do it for us ? I hope some Hawaiian girls will be available !
January 9th, 2008 at 9:18 pm
I’m set on those three prints… my wallet is safe
Still makes absolutely no sense about Tan PG.
January 9th, 2008 at 10:49 pm
Ok, it’s confirmed. NO Citta/Cr re-release =(.
but Paradiso, Inferno and Lamore will be re-released.
January 9th, 2008 at 11:13 pm
to ask a question on your answer to tokidoki: how do you find these stores in Hawaii to mail a money order to?
January 9th, 2008 at 11:22 pm
No tan PG! D: Let’s all sign a petition saying we want playground.
January 9th, 2008 at 11:27 pm
Dana- you’re awesome, cause I was just going to email Stephanie about this!
January 10th, 2008 at 12:26 am
That sucks it in Hawaii because I lived there and bags are not cheap the bags are expensive they not same price when go to the mainland.
January 10th, 2008 at 12:30 am
When I bought my Foresta re-release, i had to send in a money order for my bags. I called exactly at 10 am when they opened and line was busy for awhile. luckily the sales rep was able to help me out a bit on placement, but they practically had nothing left. i was lucky to get a buon viaggio and bambinone by the time they ansered my call and they were able to hold my bags for me for about two weeks till the money order got there. ala moana has great customer service. shipping is killer to the mainland, but it’s worth it to all true Tokidoki fans.
January 10th, 2008 at 12:33 am
if the rumors are true, i can finally have a chance of getting one of each of the old prints thats going to be re-release.
January 10th, 2008 at 1:46 am
Tara d.- Ala Moana LS opens at 9:30 am
January 10th, 2008 at 2:07 am
they told 10 am the day before the official re-release.
that’s not nice…
January 10th, 2008 at 2:21 am
Man, I’m kinda glad they’re not re-releasing the Citta print since that is the one I want, lol. Need to hold onto my money.
January 10th, 2008 at 2:23 am
Tara d. - how much was the markup on the $160 BV?
January 10th, 2008 at 3:08 am
Krisha..the BV cost $194 here in hawaii
January 10th, 2008 at 3:13 am
the bambinone was about $180 and BV was about $210, both including tax, and shipping i think was about $16 to Cali. these were personal bags, and not bags that i sell on eBay. early present for my mom and myself.
i can get the actual cost later, the receipt is in my car and it’s midnight. lol
January 10th, 2008 at 3:18 am
I’m glad I already have the lamore, and paradiso..but I wouldn’t mind a inferno BV…I don’t think i’m willing to pay almost 200…that means prices will go up on ebay once again…prices will be like close to 300.00 a bag…I have a feeling..
January 10th, 2008 at 6:06 am
Veronica said that tokidoki for lesportsac wil have new prints in AUG. Any truth to this?
January 10th, 2008 at 6:16 am
aw thanks tara! i was really curious and the shipping to Cali wasn’t too bad at all. i assumed they were personal bags
i’m in love with the l’amore print (no pun intended). and got a BV for about $150 includding S&H. but i’m going to hold off now on searching for more l’amore print bags.
i assume you got the store number from the mall’s website?
January 10th, 2008 at 8:40 am
I don’t think it’s true that there will be any new Tokidoki prints being released by LeSportsac in August because the collaboration ended with Vacanze.
January 10th, 2008 at 10:49 am
It is indeed rumored that there will be a new line of tokidoki bags starting in August 2008. I posted the info that I have about it here. Since that post, other readers have heard the same thing confirmed by other Metropark managers.
January 10th, 2008 at 4:13 pm
o_O Inferno…. Damnnn I should’ve bought when it was marked down at the warehouse ;p Anywhooo I’ll wait till March for it
January 11th, 2008 at 12:26 am
Tara d.– that sucks! my friends thought it opened at 10 too, and they came in the store and a lot of the good stuff was gone already!
Krisha– here’s ala moana LS number… (808)973-6306
i don’t usually go to the Waikiki ones so i don’t have their number sorry!
January 17th, 2008 at 8:08 am
Heather~ Thanks but I think you have the wrong “Dana”… Either there’s another girl named “Dana” that lives in Hawaii and is a Tokidoki fan or… someone used my name..?? LOL because it WAS NOT me that gave this info away! I’m surprised by the choices of prints too!! NO TAN PLAYGROUND?!?! They are either insane or dumb.. or both lol That’s just crazy talk!!
January 17th, 2008 at 8:10 am
Another note: I think I’m gonna go crazy when these prints come out.. need more inferno (only have a caramella left after I sold the other bags) and I need a paradiso bag with sushi boy on it
hehe I’m half hoping this is true.. half not (because I want it to be tan pg!! lol)
January 25th, 2008 at 4:00 pm
how much will the new campeggio inferno cost???
I want it so bad!!
March 28th, 2008 at 11:27 am
Do you know what bag styles the re-released prints come in? I saw a Paradiso Avventura on ebay, and wasn’t sure if it was authentic or not.
Thanks!
March 28th, 2008 at 5:00 pm
I really want to get any tan playground bag. What are the chances of me getting one and where can I look to get one?
April 6th, 2008 at 8:30 pm
L’amore, huh? I just bought one on ebay… >.> Any chance of the original print coming out??
April 7th, 2008 at 9:49 am
ayc311 - The re-releases come in all styles.
Tiffany - Playground bags pop up on eBay occasionally - I would keep an eye on auctions there.
Rem - Original print was already re-released in 2007.
