 secret base blue glow sustain
so i went into my office today after not being in there for a couple of hours, and noticed a faint blue glow. my frankenberryfighter was still glowing after two hours of no light! and it's shoved sort of in the back of the shelf it is on, so it doesn't receive much direct light, if any. anyone else noticed this ungodly glow sustain on their blue glow toys from secret base? it's pretty awesome. right in front of the frankenberryfighter is the regular glow frankenghost. no glow on it, even though it gets more light.

 Re: secret base blue glow sustain
Blue GID is by far the best in my opinion. I'm lucky enough to have my collection in my room so when I wake up in the middle of the night the Blue GID figures are still alive and glowing!! I LOVE them!!!!!

I had the blue GID "Ghost Fighter" from SDCC 09 and was less then impressed with it's glow. I had it next to some blank GID SB figures and they had 2x the glow.

I think at first his glow can be deceiving if you are looking for it, but once the lights go out he will glow FOREVER!!!!! Way longer than any other glow color that I've seen!

 Re: secret base blue glow sustain

 Re: secret base blue glow sustain
The KAWS 5YL is the same way - Green is much brighter, but Blue lasts much longer.

 Re: secret base blue glow sustain
The blue GID is a bit tricky. It takes your eyes longer to focus in on it, so at first it looks shit, but once your eyes have settled, they are as bright and strong. And yeah, last for ages.

Doesn't last all that long, but looks great while it's glowing!!

There is an outside chance that once your eyes have focussed, the normal glow has dimmed. But either way, you do need to sit in the dark admiring your glow toys for about 5 minutes to fully appreciate the blue glow. Which isn't a bad thing, as you end up genuinely appreciating all your glow toys much more than you did about 6 minutes prior

 Re: secret base blue glow sustain
Also in regards to the KAWS 5YLs - I have those boxes in my wardrobe (yes, I have a wardrobe...our house was built before the invention of closets) and I can open one of the doors for 15 seconds and the GID printing on the boxes is blazingly bright! I can see the glow even with the wardrobe door open and with sun streaming through the bedroom window! It's not glow-in-the-dark, it's glow-in-the-LIGHT!
