As expected, the flood of extremely marked-up Foresta re-release bags has begun to hit eBay. After checking out the prices, I’m thankful that I already have enough Foresta bags in my collection. The new Foresta re-release bags look exactly like the original release, which I find a bit disappointing, except that they have Adios keychains instead of tokidoki for LeSportsac white bear qees.

Foresta Re-Release Hits eBay
Tuesday, November 13th, 2007Vacanze Print Released in Hawaii Today – Foresta Re-Release Tomorrow!
Monday, November 12th, 2007Reader Heather just let me know that the tokidoki Vacanze print was released in Hawaii today, and the line was out the door before the store opened! She also reported that tomorrow will be the re-release of the Foresta print, which will be exclusive to the Ala Moana LeSportsac store on Oahu. (The Waikiki stores will not be stocking the Foresta re-release).
Foresta Re-Release Update
Monday, September 24th, 2007Reader Kathy, who sent in the Foresta print re-release information in this post, just let me know that she does live in Hawaii. So I think it’s safe to bet at this point that the Foresta re-release is going to be happening in Hawaii (and possibly Guam) only. Bummer!!
More info thanks to Enigma in the comments – according to a LeSportsac SA in Hawaii, they are expecting to receive their Foresta re-release shipment in November 2007!
Update on Past tokidoki Prints Re-Release Rumor
Wednesday, September 19th, 2007Reader Kathy wrote in with this exciting update about the rumored re-release of old tokidoki bag prints in 2008:
“I was told today that the first print to be re-released is Foresta. It should come out in 2008. One of my friends works for LeSportsac and she told me that the buyer already put the order in for them. She also told me that they are asking all the customers which print they would like to see re-released.”

LeSportsac May Re-Release Some tokidoki Prints in 2008
Sunday, August 19th, 2007According to LeSportsac customer service: although the tokidoki/LeSportsac collaboration is ending after the Vacanze print is released, Lesportsac has the rights to the prints for one more year and is allowed to re-release up to 5 of them!
I am trying to get more info about which prints might be re-released when – I will post more info as I get it.
How do you all feel about this? On one hand I’m excited if they re-release some of my favorite prints, but on the other hand I was looking forward to giving my wallet a REST in 2008!
