Received my new 32 oz. "Designer" lamp from LL today. Shipping was fast and item was packed well. Customer service was good - I had to cancel and re-order to apply a discount. No problems there.
Globe color: clear/redNumbers on lamp: H4200, 11032401 D (date assembled must be March 24th, 2011). Cap has white and red sticker.
Price paid: $34 shipped (with 10% discount)
The globe, much to my disappointment, was slightly cloudy. However, it was warm today and I really do expect that it might clear up. The clouding isn't as horrible as some I've seen, for sure. What's a little unsettling (pun intended?) is the fuzzies floating around in globe.
Upon first run, I can see some of these little floaties moving around in the liquid.
The finish is fairly cheap-feeling, but OK. Nice to see something new, I guess. I haven't owned any of the 20 oz. globes, but Autumn tells me the finish looks to be the same. The holes arount the base are a nice touch, but are a tad higher than the image sown on Lava Lite's website.
My verdict for now? Don't buy (yet).
Rating as of right now: 6
I am running the lamp now for the first time. Updates to follow.

Post some pics Doctor! Also Erin, in the video why isn't the lamp flowing?
EDIT: Grandees are 252 oz? Probably a typo.
The floaty actually seems to have gotten bigger. This lamp SUCKS. :(

Huge flake at 0:26 seconds.
Oh man, those fuzzies and flakes are terrible! What a disappointment. Open a dialog with them.
Maybe this is all according to plan. They made the "Furry" (aka "Fax Hair") Lava Lamp. They achieved greatness on the exterior of the globe, so why not push the envelope and go for the moon with "Faux Hair" inside the globe? Brilliant!
