Eenuh Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I bought these while on holiday recently, thought they were very pretty. They're filled with coloured sand. I've no idea how they do it, but i was impressed by the detail, and preciseness. Sand ftw!! Heh, we used to fill up bottles with coloured sand when we were little. Think we coloured the sand with coloured chalks. And then put different layers in the bottle and get cool patterns by poking sticks in it. =P But yeah no idea how they get the actual images. Pro skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro_Link Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 (edited) I bought these while on holiday recently, thought they were very pretty. They're filled with coloured sand. I've no idea how they do it, but i was impressed by the detail, and preciseness. Sand ftw!! They're great! Brought back memories of holidays on the Isle of Wight as a kid, where there's this little shop you can fill up glass with coloured sand. I have a little glass guitar and bell shaped one somewhere. Great fun! Edited December 18, 2010 by Retro_Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pancake Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Thanks guys! They had tons of colour, design and shape variations. I wanted to buy loads but was worried about my suitcase weight. But seeing them all laid out together was really impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a beaver he's an alien. ....And that is not a fox. That is the poor Kitty turned Red Lantern Dexter/Dex-Starr. Then the owner gets raped and murdered, Dexter becomes homeless. Then some docuhebags grab him and throw him off a bridge. And the others are amazing. Blake Lively's character (the one in pink) a Green Lantern who's got Superman abilities, and the rest. Amazing. AMAAZZINNGGGG. Besides...they're mostly aliens, waddya expect. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daft Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 £50. Properly sturdy and it folds away. It's ace. I pretty much have a gym in my house now...which is a bit weird. Haven't gone to the gym since last Monday. Essays and this stoopid weather, so I thought this was a pretty good idea. Also means if I have to relocate, find a gym won't be urgent. Need to buy some more weights for my dumbbells. Then I'll be sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it was a piss take that GL is homo erotic which was the joke (congratulations) but I re-read his post and it said "action figures" and I couldn't find any gayer ones than the ones I posted. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
