MAC x Fall 2012 Marilyn Monroe Collection

I tend not to become too excited when a new MAC collection prepares for debut only because the company has very frequent collections pop up over the course of time. However, I am ecstatic and DYING with anticipation for the Fall Marilyn Monroe Collection to make its appearance. Through a little research I was finally able to get a hold of some decent pics of the upcoming collection (it will be available in the US in October). I do have to say that I am rather disappointed with the packaging. MAC went all out to design the Wonder Woman collection even making the products oversized. Complete and total revamp for the Wonder Woman collection. Marilyn is such an iconic "real life" superstar and I don't feel as though much thought went into the packaging aspect of this line. I hate the photographs they selected for the packaging. There are THOUSANDS of better photos that could have been used.
