the white lantern range, batman, superman and flash

i have seen them online but the boxes look the same and neither has a sticker so in store how do i make sure i get the GITD

Even if it comes from Austrailia, the GITD will have a GITD yellow-round sticker on it. Those without are just the regular editions ;-)

So this came today....very happy to add it :yippee:

Josh, I'm stumped, what Pop is that?

I just got an order from PC today that included the glow Black Suit Spiderman. I fully expected it to be really anemic since it's just black with some painted on details, but check it out, it looks WICKED!!!!

I think it's the 9" Buzz Lightyear, isn't it?

Yeah, Black Suit Spidey looks really good glowing. I like the grainy touch the glow on him has.

WOAH, I didn't even know such a thing existed! I mean I knew about the 9" Buzz plain and metallic, but didn't know there was a GITD as well! And it comes with a Zurg too, way cool! Congrats to Josh!

Yeah, it seems like that's a trait of the GITD paint. The others I have that are painted GITD (Ghost Rider and marshmallow man come to mind) have that same graininess. I noticed last night when I turned the lights out that the Spidey glow faded much faster than my other glow Pops. Still, looks very cool with the black light on!

I finally got my Regenerating Doctor from Gamestop and I have to admit that I am kind of disappointed in his glow.

He's still awesome (since I've been a Whovian since the 80's), but ...... yeah they could have done alot better with this one

Pretty decent glow on the BvS glow pack

Postby **Jango_Fresh** » Tue Feb 23, 2016 2:34 pm

Glow is so awesome on that two pack!

The batman superman glow looks great!

Yes...a 9" GITD Buzz with metallic Zurg

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!

Postby **toro423** » Thu Feb 25, 2016 11:49 am

Anti-Venom really has a cool glow.

Postby **Oatmealman** » Thu Feb 25, 2016 11:52 am

the new two-pack has a great glow! Lol that freakin BMO could light up a room! One of the best to date. Another one of my fav's is La muerte

She's very unique in my opinion!

Postby **thejosh2010** » Thu Feb 25, 2016 12:28 pm

Congratulations CC! I love using a black light flashlight to make my pops glow! I find using a regular maglite flashlight works the best though!! :-)

Very cool! Nice collection you have going! :-)

I picked up the 6" Kurama for my daughter, looks like it's molded in GITD vinyl. I'll shoot some pics of it. I'm going to build a display case for it with UV LEDs for her bday!

Postby **treswright** » Fri Feb 26, 2016 12:32 am

A couple of quick in-box pics of Kurama with black light on and off. It glows fantastic!

Thank you! Wouldn't have know it was in stock if it wasnt for a fellow funatic on the forum. Hope you get yours too!

Finally got my GitD Steven and Garnet from Popcultcha today. Steven glows a nice red-pink color, fairly bright, though the charge doesn't last all that long. Garnet was disappointing, she glows the same color, but less brightly, on fewer places, and for less long than Steven, and unlike Steven has no variation to the original besides her glow. Also, oddly enough, neither of them charged well if at all under my black light. I had to use my flourescent lamp to charge them, which means that displaying them with my other GitD POPs by the black light is pointless

Postby **KMFH11** » Sat Mar 12, 2016 11:54 pm

That nightking glow is amazing! Thanks for the picture!

It's like the GITD AntMan pop...just something about those red GITD's...they have weak glows :-k

Congratulations on getting them though ;-)

Picked up the latest Steven Universe exclusive from HT recently. Really diggin' the red glow. I have to do more glow edits in the future.

Postby **naisatoh** » Sun Mar 13, 2016 8:12 pm

Cool thread! Love seeing everyone's photos!!

Postby **treswright** » Sun Mar 13, 2016 8:45 pm

Great photos guys! Frank, that fade photo is awesome!

I have a few glowies on the way from PC- the Steven's Universe pair and the Anti-Venom. It's gotten so hard to find anything in my area that anymore I just order from PC and save myself the search effort! I miss the days of walking into HT or GS and just looking at all the new ones though.

Postby **Jango_Fresh** » Sun Mar 13, 2016 9:27 pm

You will never find a glow more awesome than this!

Thanks!

Thing is, Steven's glow is actually pretty cool(if it looks dull, it's cause of my phone camera). From all the bad talk and pics I've seen for red GitD POPs, I expected Steven to be a let down. It's just Garnet and the fact that they don't seem to charge under my blacklight that was disappointing.

I don't know Eddie...think it's very tight between the Spidey and the SDCC GITD Slimer...both are weak glowers for sure lol
