Red white blue mathmos

Blue after fading - pretty happy with this - I'll get another blue/blue down the track I reckon so that I have a "pure" one. Would love a blue/white astro but never seen one for sale... anyone have pics of one?

Comment by Reszound on July 9, 2009 at 6:39pm: Yep it is but I didn't do it myself. It's the current model astro and it's not fully reflective but is halfway between the brushed look and the baby look. It throws more light out the bottom than the older ones too. The bottle is actually circa 2000ish. The base is a little higher and more elegant than the older one which looks a little squat by comparison. This means that the bottle sits a fraction deeper in the base and warms up quicker. "Whitey" gets going about 45 minutes before bluey does, and blue has a double coil in it...
