 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
I just grabbed one so I would have something to order along the Karakasa mug.

I didn't know this at all. The sulfur bit, mainly. I know the red glow doesn't always hang around very long. Can anyone else confirm this? Not that I don't believe I'm just curious if all red glow have a sulfuric smell.

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
My bad, it's Strontium Sulfide, not sulfur. I am not a chemist, so maybe I misunderstood this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PhosphorQuote: Glow-in-the-dark toys Calcium sulfide with strontium sulfide with bismuth as activator, (Ca,Sr)S:Bi, yields blue light with glow times up to 12 hours, red and orange are modifications of the zinc sulfide formula. Red color can be obtained from strontium sulfide. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strontium_sulfideQuote: As expected for a sulfide salt of alkaline earth, the sulfide hydrolyzes readily: SrS + 2 H2O → Sr(OH)2 + H2S For this reason, samples of SrS have an odor of rotten eggs. http://glowinc.com/detail.aspx?ID=19Quote: Smell Like all Zinc Sulfide powders, Zinc Red has a strong sulfur odor in its pigment form. This order generally subsides when mixed into a medium.

Neither me, interesting, but honestly I want that f***** badly! Looks like an awesome colour-combo to me. AND still no reply from SB yet?! Very unusual, hope this is good, fingers still crossed...

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
That's from a site that sells glow in dark pigment powders.
I have 2 red glow BBBs and they smell really awful.

None of my red glow figures have any discernible smell unless I wedge 'em tight up against my nose . . . which until your b*tching, I'd never even have considered doing! If it chaffs yer ass that much I'm sure there's a few guys looking to buy!

If it chaffs yer ass that much I'm sure there's a few guys looking to buy! I wasn't complaining, I was just trying to cheer up the collectors who missed out. Actually, I do have hyper-perceptive olfactory and auditory senses due to a neurological condition. OK, back to topic please. and I guess that Quote: Scary Andy Snarker, shit talker, chubby cheetos stained digit, keyboard stabbing, two-bit hero of the internettz, shithead and all-round fun guy! means I shouldn't take what you say personally.

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
Classic Andy. Really looking forward to see how this red glows. Hopefully it will be as nice as the blue glow.

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
Between a couple Obake Dogs, DBM fighters and Brains/Bees, I have regular, green, orange and blue glow. Never seen a red glow toy in person before. Looks pretty awesome in photos, though!

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
If you want to get on Andy's good side, find him a nice granny with saggy boobs- he's on the hunt for some "real head" if you know what I mean. But that's for another thread.
