    These are probably my favorites of the Benu pens I've seen to date. Colorful but not over the top. Thanks for sharing a look at these.

    What an awesome new pen! Benu always does it in style. I swear, Benu must have the original metal and jewel smiths that forged the Silmarills from The Silmarillion.

    Love the Apple Glory insert! I've just gotten into fountain pens and am already hooked. I'll be starting my career as an elementary teacher soon and wanted a good green ink. Hopefully my sample from Goulet will come soon lol. I really like how beefy the pen looks. I love my Metro, but having big hands, I feel like having something a bit bigger would be a good thing.

    Great review. As always a fantastic job on the astronomical information. Ha, I expect that from someone who not only knows about Mauna Kea, but has been there. Thanks for this one David, and since I do not yet have a Benu in my collection I will file the Google form. As a retired Planetarium director and show producer I should have one astro themed pen in my collection. Have a great holiday weekend.

    Thank you for this review and giveaway, Figboot. Good luck to those who entered! I prefer the Leto or Juno or Midas, so I'll pass on this giveaway xD But I also am unsure if I would love writing with this new model. The color combinations and sparkles are very cool and different though. Very beautiful Benu line nonetheless!

    I love the background story of Benu. I don't believe the company has released a oen honoring the Egyptian god, Bennu. I have only one Benu pen - tje Talisman. I have eyedropper filled my pen and it works just fine. I am sure the AstroGem would perform just as well. I appreciate that Benu has toned down the "bling". I think it actually has enhanced the beauty of the pen. I also like the translucent section which acts like an ink window. That is very much appreciated if you use the pen as an eyedropper. Great overview, David.

    Benu makes such interesting pens and their creativity is great! I have major respect for them as a company, especially for them relocating a couple years ago. I REALLY wish they would also offer designs with a thicker section, something along 11-12.5mm.

    I'd not been a fan of Benu pens up to this point; they seemed a bit over the top for me. I've heard it said that most people are meh about Benu ... right up until they make a pen that appeals to their distinct interests. For me, it was the AstroGem Echo, which I got in a fine point for art, and so far I love it. The other Benu pens are a bit OTT for me, but the color combination of the AstroGem Echo is a bit Van Gogh-ish and the shape is excellent, very relaxing in the hand.

    Awesome background story. We should be pouring funds into NASA (I want a transporter). I appreciate the design work that went into this Benu, but the Apollo’s colours don’t appeal to me. “Shyster” - there’s a wired are need to bring back into common usage. Thank you, David!
