Interesting Astro fluke, (too much wax) listed on Ebay?

I was just browsing Ebay Euro countries and found an interesting fluke of a Mathmos Astro Blue/Blue, it appears to have WAY more wax used than normal. Even compared to American 52 oz lamps it looks like way too much (and they tend to have more than Mathmos). Guess someone had a hangover when they were doing a "hand pouring". Even flowing you can see it looks "off" for a Mathmos.

 

"Overfilled" wax:

A "Normal" One:

Someone could have added to it, if it didn't come from factory this way of course...
