Some of my recent pencil additions

What's up squad? (you know, besides the coup/fascist takeover etc. o_o) I've recently been picking up pencils like the vactrain picks up litter in the tracks to prevent track fires. Eventually I want to do reviews for all of these pencils because I'm a bit of a completionist, but for now I just want to shout out a few of the ones I picked up recently but havent gotten around to reviewing yet. From top to bottom here they are:

Tombow 2558 H: - Not scratchy enough for an H IMO :/
Prismacolor Turquoise 2260 F: - does not write in turquoise
U.S.A. GOLD #2: - reminds me of how unions used to run this country
Viarco 3500 #2: - aww it looks so cute with those little stripes
Viarco Desenho 1950 #2: - yep this is a yellow pencil. but its a little orange actually. i approve
Staedler Noirca HB: - looks cooler than it is
Metrocard pencil: - looks way cooler than it is. does not get you onto the subway
Mirado Black Warrior #2: - has some crazy acoustics
Central park pencil: - I got it in Central Park. is secretly made by Musgrave
Dixon #2 golf pencil: - I got it at the library. short king. feels like wax
