Oozing Goo - The Lava Lamp Syndicate

Got some new lamps, one I have never seen before, the others have strange colors!

I got a bunch of lamps from a stoner store today for pretty cheap. I paid $60 and got a midnight aristocrat with clear liquid white lava, a globe with neon yellow lava and yellow water, a silver streak with blue lava clear liquid and a mystery lamp I have never seen before! I went to this hippie/stoner store and they said they didnt have any lamps and told me the mystery lamp they had on display didnt work(it doesnt flow but I plan on replacing the lava anyways!). Then one of the employees told me he had "bits and pieces" of lamps so I told him to show me and I bought everything they had.

So as usual I have a few questions about my new lamps. By the way this is why I love this forum, everyone has so much information about these lamps that I love to hear about.

My first question is do I have something special with this aristocrat. Was the lava originally clear/white? The cap says  102D  000326 04060. I have never seen a lamp number with a character in it before!


My neon yellow lamp has what looks to be some kind of waxy film on the inside. Will this go away with use? Also the cap number is 25, what lamp was this originally from? I got the globe alone so I didnt get the base.


Here is my mystery lamp! Does anyone know anything about this? I have never seen it before and none of the store employees knew anything about it. I bet Bohdan has one of these, he seems to have at least one of everything!


My blue/clear works fine and I am happy with it, I will be giving it to someone since I already have one.

Anyways here is my total haul, was $60 a good price for what I got or did I get hosed?

Well I got some good news, sort of. The Nova lamp(thanks blind faith for the name) is dead like the people at the store told me, I also read that they have horrible flow to begin with. So I dumped the lamp down the drain and now I plan on buying a goo kit. Unfortunately I took a chunk out of the top of the bottle so I will have to glue the cap on when I refill it and thats a whole new adventure for me. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to reseal the nova? The cap was so rusted that it fell apart when I took it off and I have a small chip in the glass now!

So does anyone know what color my big lamp should be? Its number is 120D and its clear/white but I wanted to know if it used to be another color.
Well I took a sponge paint brush and wiped the inside of the globe clean and the result is a very clear slightly yellow colored liquid with golden yellow lava that flows great. The lamp looks amazing when its turned on and I think it actually looks like it is supposed to be this way.
