This was why I didn't bother with registering at BRU, which wasn't carrying the Ergo before DD was born.
I registered at Amazon and Target.
Amazon carries the Gemini in a variety of prints; you can also add items to an Amazon registry from anywhere on the internet, though it doesn't work the same way as a regular registry as far as returns and exchanges go. (IDK if that's something you care deeply about - I didn't. I wanted what I wanted from the vendors I chose because they sold what I wanted ... and I didn't plan to return anything from a non-Amazon vendor.)
As another tall mama, I'm a big fan of both the Ergo and the Gemini, but, given the choice between the two, I'd opt for the Gemini. Not for the forward-facing carry, but because you can use it without an infant insert!!!
