So after I purchased a UV light.. here is my best Frankenstein of the 2. As you can see it has some GITD specks.. it has a faint faint glow for like 1.5 seconds after being charged for over a minute. The rat fink/Kang & kodos glow decently..

Wonder if the glow stems from leftover paint in the mould? That would explain why a number of normal freddys also glow?

That's the conclusion I have come to. That they did the GITD first and same mold was used for regular and some of it came off on some of the others

I'm hoping to get the Kang and Kodos in the future. Anyone have a good picture of them glowing? Also love the nice glow in the dark touch to the text on the Fundays tiki boxes this year.

What's some of your favorite Glow In The Dark POPs?
Who else would you like to see in GITD form?

My favorite Glow pops so far are the Toy of the Year Freddy and the 8-bit glow Freddies.
I’d love to see more Freddies converted to the glow side and more Deadpool versions in Glow form as well

Love everything Glow but I have to admit love the glow on this years sdcc Ultraman

Nope no one told us anything about the boxes, some people noticed the glow areas glowing under the lighting conditions at Fundays, some felt the textures of the glow areas were dofferent

The first thing I noticed was the texture, and I thought that it was cool! But I didn't notice that it glowed until after someone posted a picture.

A pleasant surprise indeed.

Yes it was! They keep coming up with cool designs for their boxes!

Also because I have a better UV torch at home rather than the mini one I brought to SDCC, here's the glow on Frankenstein Freddy

Oh that Frankenstein glow is nice.

The glow on both is amazing. Is there a chance that we can get the UV light used?

Glow boxes are the next step! The fundays tikis have glow text on the boxes, the glow pops of the future need that!

Yupp! I bought my UV light off Amazon on sale for about 13.99. Vansky 51 LED model! Takes 3 AAs to power but totally worth it in my opinion!

Some great photos in this thread. I need to get myself a black light to do some better glow photos ...

It only looks like that when under UV light. Normal light It looks fine and you can't see anything wrong with it without that light right in its face. It was my attempt to see if my error glow was significant enough to actually glow.

Nope. The only real GITD part is those tiny dust like specks of green glow. And of course his freckles that are reflecting the UV light..

Body not so much. Just within the head. Which is kinda weird. Why wouldn't the hands have GITD space dust on it?

Probably a larger surface area thing when they coated the GITD variants more got left over on the head. My wild guess :-"

Yeah they really need a sticker on that one. Was surprised that it even glowed and can't wait to get my hands on it as well! Maybe if you have time you can load up a glow shot of him?

It most definitely is amazing, I was in awe when I realised it was a glow piece when I took it out from my BoF. Then when I got to give it a good go with my UV torch the glow took my breath away!

It does??? I saw a recent post about just taking out the pop and let it “sit” under the sun for a couple of minutes and let it “absorb” the sunlight to make it glow even brighter..
Hhmmmm...

Yeah I remember pulling him from the box thinking it was the common till I noticed the gitd sticker and then the Le24 count. OH. EM. GEE. On another note, I'm waiting for the normal frankenstein to settle at a better price because I can't afford it now lol

Amazing luck of the draw! But well deserved! If you want I'll trade you my Frankenfreddy for yours lol

jk jk.
I'm sure the price will settle. It's already starting to drop so hopefully you can find an affordable one soon
