Our plans for Halloween…

We are always very aware of how frustrating it is for our overseas colourists who are unable to pick up our Halloween Special issues in stores until after the Halloween season. In the past, we have tried printing and sending issues early, only to be thwarted by delivery delays.

BUT! We continue to try and get it right, so here’s our plan for this year…

• Colouring Heaven Plus subscribers will receive Issue #106 (Halloween Special) as normal, wherever they are in the world. This will be printed in the UK, so standard delivery timelines will apply.

• If you’re in the UK, you’ll be able to buy Issue #106 (Halloween Special) in stores from 27th September as normal.

• If you’re in Sweden, Finland, or the Netherlands, you’ll be able to buy our translated versions of Issue #106 (Halloween Special) from around the middle of October.

• If you’re in the US or Canada, you’ll be able to buy an exclusive edition of the Halloween issue, which is being printed in the US and will be available in grocery stores across the countries from around the 27th September.

To replace the Halloween issue that would normally be sent from the UK to stores in the US and Canada for Issue #106, a reprint of the popular and long-sold out Fairies & Elves Special will go on sale in stores in the US and Canada around the end of October in usual outlets. This issue will only be available to pick up in stores, and will not be available to buy online.

As you can see, we will be printing the US and Canada edition of Issue of our Halloween Special in the US with a company called A360 Media in addition to the regular Issues, so it will go on sale before Halloween.

This issue will be different to our UK edition in only three ways – the cover will be a bit more colourful, the issue will contain slightly fewer designs (32 not 40), and as a result of printing locally, the paper will be a bit different. It will ONLY be available in stores in the US and Canada. But all of the designs included in this US / Canada edition will also be available in our UK edition, so if you’re not based in the US or Canada, you don’t have to worry about missing out.

• If you’re anywhere else in the world, there will NOT be a Halloween Special in stores, and it will be replaced with a reprint of the popular and long-sold out Fairies & Elves Special. This issue will not be available to buy from our online shop.

• Anyone in the world will be able to buy the UK edition of Issue #106 (Halloween Special) from our online shop from 27th September as normal. We deliver worldwide, but standard delivery timelines will apply. Due to the Halloween Special being a multi-artist issue, it will NOT be available to buy as a digital download.

Phew, that’s it! We know that’s a lot, so if you’ve got any questions, please do let us know on Facebook or Instagram.
