"I too reached out to Mathmos and was told it was their new formula. Basically what they did was that they had two types of Astros, the silver ones and the colourful base ones. They each had their own formula so they would work well on their own…"

Mathmos announced a new version of the telstar, still one of the best designs of them, but this one is not convincing.…Continue

As mentioned in many older discussions, many people are searching for the correct liquid for glitter bottles. On an older Crestworth cap it says: PropyleneglycolCan anybody confirm that PG works? And…Continue
Question to the experts of early Lava/Glitter stuff: What's this??

An interesting lamp I can't classify: Maybe an early Crestworth model? The seller claims the glitter bottle to be original, while the lava one was a replacement bottle (Mathmos AstroBaby) that…Continue

I just found this glitter lamp. The seller says it was a Russian model, but couldn't give any further details (how old it is, how rare it is, if the bottle is still original etc)On the bottom it says…Continue

I do own a…"
doddy replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"I totally agree they should not be using the black name whatsoever. The colour is off purple. Even plum can be used for red purple green or yellow as plums exist in lots of colours. How anyone can actually say they like this off purple is beyond me.…"
IdOrU 02 replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"mathmos black isn't, it's only dark plum ! I complained with them after the purchase of a black heritage astro with black goo"
IdOrU 02 replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"besides the poor body colors choice, the problem with mathmos IS the loss of quality of their lava : nothing like it was 10 years ago, today it's no more than the rest of ttthe pasc, bubbles going up, cooling then diving.
Get lost mathmos for…"
Claude J replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"yellow fluid orange wax (or visa versa) is the best combo for anything copper plated"
doddy replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"I would buy that. Its stunning. But not plum wax."
Peter Panussi replied to Peter Panussi's discussion Nova Illusion Lava Bottles as replacement for Jets?"More general:Has anybody a source for other bottles one could use on a Jet instead of the original Mathmos bottes? Some booze bottles for exeample? I have so many Jet bases, but far too less bottles...The Nova Illusion with…"
Claude J replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"i like the copper and chrome concept more than the black"
doddy replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"I think that this is the most undesireable lamp in their entire range. Having seen one up close even the black astro with its white legs is better. Only just tho."
Peter Panussi replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"You're right, all this copper and black shit is annoying, some new goo colors would be phantastic."
Mr MaGoo replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"LOL, true dat!"
doddy replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"I agree, i would rather have Mathmos any day, my only gripe is lack of range. I have 2 LLs and they have both failed within the short time Ive had them. My original 1994 Mathmos astro is still going strong. I guess with my big collection, i just…"
Dr. WHAT?! replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"You can slap lipstick on pig (aka LL) and dress it up in all different colors doesn't mean its still not a pig. LL quality is junk, Mathmos is quality. I'll take that over color options any day."
doddy replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper"At least LL release colourful designs that capture the imagination and gain sales. The only thing Mathmos release is the same old colours, boring blacks, chromes and coppers. How about something colourful, bright, to blast those winter blues away.…"
The Lamp Caretaker replied to Peter Panussi's discussion new version of Mathmos' Telstar in matt black and copper" This lamps colors are way off which makes the lamp look cheap. Pass! "

Arne said… - 'nabend :) soo ich hab tatsächlich wieder ne astro metallic aber die ist bissl trüb. wollen wir mal gemeinsam versuchen die masterfluid formel zu knacken ? hab nochmal bissl nachgedacht und bin guter hoffnung die relativ flott entschlüsselt zu haben, vll soagr beim ersten versuch aber zwei köpfe sind halt schlauer als einer und die bestandteile kosten halt auch ca zwanzig euro...kann im alleingang also mòglicherweise auch etwas teuer werden falls meine vermutungen nicht zutreffen. falls wirs schaffen können wir die von mir aus auch anderen zum kauf anbieten aber zumindest kann man die denn mal anmachen ohne Jedes mal der unweigerlichen eintrübung ins auge blicken zu müssen :) besten gruß arne
