The glowy Pop goodness thread :-)

[treswright]

Very cool Scott! Believe it or not I have no idea what Pop that is but I like it

It is a Deadite from Army Of Darkness. Truly a classic.

Thanks Tres!

Like Howard said, it's from Evil Dead: Army of Darkness. GITD Deadite was a Bangkok CC Exclusive. There is a regular, normal release version too

Thank you both for the info! Was it a Pop Asia exclusive? Looking at in-box pics of them they have that funky sticker I've only seen on those.

I really dig how just the skeleton and skull glow, what a great effect!

You know what, I didn't even look at the box when I got it in the mail... I opened him up immediately and set the black light on him haha. I'll get back to you about this!

EDIT: Seems like it is a Pop! Movies, but PPG says Bangkok Exclusive.

[RoboFist]

Just got this today, amazing glow!

Oh, incredible find! Just in time for Halloween too!

[Sarcasticguy]

Pop Asia White Lady from SLCC Mystery Box!

I think i'm obsessed with GITD now!

[Thrillofthehunt]

Love this pop asia white lady. Would've been my #1 thing to get if i was at SLCC. It's the first pop i would say looks truly creepy imo. The GITD effect really does it!

[edmomo]

that is one hell of a glow. some just do better than others.

[grandpa_stern]

Wondering if this is standard or a cool mistake. My GID NIght King glows blue on his head and green on his body. I love it!

[ohheyitsshannon]

Jealous of the White Lady pops.

[djwu]

Holy crap that white lady pop glow looks awesome!

Thanks! That explains why it's so spendy on eBay. That one is definitely on my short list now though, love your pics!

Is that under black light or with lights out? I've noticed that some of them do that under black light- their bodies and heads glow different colors. But usually with the lights out they glow the same color. It's a strange/cool effect.

[treswright]

Jealous of the White Lady pops.

I paid like 100 bucks for mine back when they first came out, and once I had it in my glow case I considered it money well spent. It glows really brightly, right up there with Adipose, Creature, Kratos, etc. But what's even more cool is she's got the whole spooky ghost theme going on, so she -looks- like she should glow. It's a great Pop. And now that more of them are out there due to them being released in the box set at the con here in the US the price has dropped dramatically on eBay. It's definitely one all glow fans should consider picking up I wish they would do a glow Aswang, that's another that would be super spooky/ awesome!

[Stragon]

The glow on the White Lady is pretty awesome.

[Sarcasticguy]

Np! Supposedly LE1000.... was able to get a slightly box damaged piece for under the value which was nice

Lights out! It's amazing! I searched around and found a guy on Reddit that has one like that! I like different colors so I'm totally hyped by it.

By the by, are you going to the Fright Night party? I want to shake your hand!

[JohnnyPOP]

I have to say, Goblin and Swamp Thing glow really well! I don't have any way to fully charge them, but I can still see them faintly glowing when I turn off the lights at night I hope I can get something set up so they show off their true potential!

You never know with Pop Asia, the White Lady was supposed to be 1/500 I think? And the bloody version was 1/100? Can't remember the exact numbers but it was very limited. But it turns out that was just the first offering. I would hate to pay 100+ for this one and see the same thing happen where they flood the market with a bigger second wave of them. I wish I had a crystal ball

Lights out! It's amazing! I searched around and found a guy on Reddit that has one like that! I like different colors so I'm totally hyped by it.

Cool! I have but have never checked it's glow because I'm out of space temporarily. That reminds me of the blue-armed Baymax though

By the by, are you going to the Fright Night party? I want to shake your hand!

Yes sir, I will be there! I look forward to meeting you!

[grandpa_stern]

Awesome! See you there!

[CollectorRobin]

I was surprised at how well the GITD Walmart Ponies hold a charge! They glow really bright.

The 10th Doctor Regeneration Pop glow is pretty cool too.

[RoboFist]

According to my humble little collection of glowers, it really is a complete grab bag in terms of which ones hold a charge and glow the brightest.

I literally put all four of mine (Frankenstein, his Bride, The Glowing One Feral Ghoul, and Pearl) in my bearded dragon's tank all day right under the heat lamp haha. For Frankie and Feral Ghoul, that's the only way to get a decent charge, which is kind of weird considering how the Ghoul is just covered in GitD paint. He may be my weakest glower.

Frankie glows pretty well, but only for a super short amount of time, unfortunately. Pearl and Bride of Frankenstein are natural born glowers, though. Bride especially holds her brightness for a super long time.

Unfortunately, I lack both a decent enough camera to take pictures of their natural glows and a black light of any kind, but one day I'll show 'em off.

[SuMo]

Here are a couple of shots of the Walmart MLP exclusives (lights on and off). The yellow one glows nicely, but the blue one doesn't glow that great and the purple one is terrible. I took the second pic right after turning the lights off so it's a little deceiving, because within 10 seconds or so the purple one fades to where you can't even see it anymore.

OMG! That MLP glow is fantastic! I need a blacklight STAT!

Very cool pictures and detail. I'll need to put my GITD ones together and see how they look.

[grandpa_stern]

I have to say, the new GIDs are awesome glowers. Not sure if they changed the formula, but I just picked up Amethyst and Pearl from HT yesterday and after only a minute under my UV flashlight, they stayed pretty sharp for almost an hour. Love it!

[Hopesdenial]

Personally, I think the BMO might have the best glow out of all the pops out there. Nice collection!!!

Finally got myself a black light(albeit a cheap one), here are the results!



After charging. Never noticed Finn's shirt also glows till I pit him under a black light! Don't think my Ghoul is getting enough light. Sadly, no room for my GitD Emperor and Baymax


And a close up of GitD Anti-Venom!

[Hopesdenial]

Not a MLP fan but the glow on this is fantastic! I also like the different colors of the Wal Mart exclusives.

I went ahead and started a Mystery Mini list in the first post since Thomas mentioned Cthulu. I don't have any of the glow minis, so if anyone has any for the list then let me know.

Both Derpy from series one and Princess Celestia from series 3 (HT exclusive) from the MLP mini sets glow really well. They're both molded in GitD vinyl. I don't have a photo of Derpy, but here's Celestia:


I know there's at least one other MLP mini that's GitD, but those are the only two I have.

I agree. Kinda seems like a missed opportunity. Wonder woman's invisible jet... as an ECCC glow exclusive for example.

Oh my gosh, that's awesome! I've been trying to find pictures if this guy glowing (to no avail).

[treswright]

YES!!! Funko made glow versions of the monster cereal Wobbler rides, and Brian has announced there will be FIVE (squeals like a schoolgirl) monster cereal Dorbz Ridez with a couple coming for NYCC. I am hoping beyond hope that they'll do some glow versions in either Ridez or Rides form some day as a tribute to the wobblers! By the way I have both of the glow wobbler rides, I'll try and post a pic soon. They rock

In another thread I suggested a glow version of Freddy's Ride, man I would love to see that happen!

[treswright]

Usually when I get a new glowy goodness Funkomite I toss it into the glow bat case and snap some pics for this thread, but what I don't post pics of much is my desk where I temporarily display some glow goodies before boxing them back up pending the day I finish my display room project (currently underway). This is kind of a rotating display of newer and older acquisitions, there's no real order to it but it makes for a fun splash of color to look at it when I turn the lights off at night They're lit by a cheapo Walmart black light. Pics with light on and off:

Glad to have helped you with your search . Now we need a one punch man pop or mob psycho 100.

I still adore the glow on that Cheshire. Stupid BAM-less state.

That's awesome, can't wait to get mine in and watch it glow! Thanks for sharing!

I was thinking about picking up the GITD Godzilla but not sure if he is worth the add. I'm charging my glow POPS with a florescent now, before I order my power supply for the leds. Out of all the Steven Universe glow Pops, Pearl is the best. I'm going to get some pics after awhile. My BEST glower right now is Vault Boy.

Personally I love both Godzillas, they add an awesome splash of blue color to a grouping of glowies The atomic breath version is less impressive due to it mostly being painted, but it's still very cool. But if you want maximum glowy blindness in a 6" Pop, man Kurama is where the bar is set.

Yea I was looking at the Atomic Breath since I don't have to drop much $$$. I've been looking into the pop Asia ones as well. I know Kurama is great, I just don't get how out of so many that one is so up there with standards.



So I charged these up. Steven Universe was horrible. Little to no glow.
UPDATE: Pics are not working.........................

Vault Boy was the Best. Pearl is more Yellow/White than green. Kratos is a greenish blue?

[treswright]

I know Kurama is great, I just don't get how out of so many that one is so up there with standards.

The whole reason we started this thread to begin with is because the glowy Pops are kind of all over the place as far as glow intensity. There's not really any rhyme or reason to it, some glow fantastic, others are average and others are terrible. Some of the Pops are molded in GITD vinyl and others are painted with GITD paint. As a rule the vinyl glows better than the paint, but it's not always the case. Some of the molded vinyl colors glow better than others. Yellow is at the top of the list. Kurama has very little paint and is molded in one of the brightest (if not the brightest) glowing vinyl, that is why it's "up there" on the glow scale

[Caius_Cosades]

Alright, finally got my baseball bat case rigged with lighting all thanks to Tres' advice! Behold!






Unfortunately, even with LED UV black lights, Garnet and Steven still can't hold a charge.
