My understanding is that the translucent vinyls with only a little glow pigment mixed in (like these appear to be) did not glow very well compared to opaque glowies. Wasn't that the case with the "X-Ray" Galtan?

The Killer GID set glows pretty nice. Maybe it was just the Galtan?

Well, not opaque, but not as clear as the Zag too. Kinda "milky" I'd say, for the lack of a better word.

black light didnt make it do much more
it glowed pretty nicely after i charged it under a flourescent bulb though

I do have my reservations about the "glowy goodness" that can be had from clear glow vinyl.....due to the fact that at Toy Karma...the Gargamel offered set of clear glow mini Zags had just barely a faint glow to them.
They are in Stealthtank's collection now....so he would know....Scott?
I ordered tho'...too cool to pass up...

The glow on the colored gid mini zag set is marginal. They glow way less than the gid killers but way more than the xray galtan. The thing I like about them, though, is the color on the clear vinyl is super unique.

The thing I like about them, though, is the color on the clear vinyl is super unique. Seems like they're “ghostly” than. Which is still cool, clear GID, even if it's just a whisp of glow, is 2 gimmicks in 1.
