 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
'Tis true, none of my glow toys glow quite as bright or anywhere near as long as my only blue glow toy. I can wake up at any time of the night and still find it glowing.  pic of blue glowing bright.

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
^ Got my invoice at 10am Sunday and paid about an hour later, then just got shipping info this morning saying that it was shipped yesterday. I'd email them again.

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
Glad you could get it. It does look really sweet (I don't have one).
I don't disagree with Andy though.
I think the red glows really stink when they're heated up. I got nauseous when I was playing with mine, switching the heads and bodies and taking pics.

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
Unless you're living next to a sulfur mine, you might indeed notice a rather distinct odor. In fact, the thing reeks like it just slithered out of fucking hell itself. Love it, but wouldn't want to have a bunch of red glowies on my nightstand...

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
I have a very sensitive sense of smell and a ton of things bother me, but not this. Smells a little different maybe, but doesn't bother me at all.

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
In light of this odor issue- if you can call it that. It would be fitting, if this Orm had a BRIMSTONE tampo.

 Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
Me, I wouldn't call it an issue unless you're hypersensitive (and there's always Andy to fix that!), but I also wouldn't recommend huffing the freshly opened bag on an empty stomach; you might end up with a very different kind of marbling. After 36 hours it seems that the smell has evaporated a bit and gotten somewhat less intense, so yeah - probably much like Biff after egg salad. Anyway, here's one last shot of it in all its ormazing glory. Afaic, these could've been sprayed with cat piss:
