New Gazillion Blue in 2017?

NEW GAZILLION BLUE?  True. . . but it's nothing like the long lost FY Blue solution Fan Yang developed and licensed to Gazillion that had such high performance qualities that you could do a show with it (if the humidity was above 40%).

Pros: The new blue will self heal, make some sculptures, bubble in bubble and bigish bubbles with up to a 10" wand. Made In USA

Cons: It's not a liquid for Pros. It is heavy (the drips collect and don't shed quickly at the bottom of the bubble which makes sculptures heavy enough to fall off the wand), flows like clear syrup & feels something like watery regular Gazillion but with polymers added. Maybe PEO?

If you are familiar with the mysterious (but not bubble troublesome) cloud that used to form at the bottom of shelved FY Blue bottles... it isn't there with the new Blue. See that in the photos.
The New Blue also has a redesigned Blue Wand. The old one with its collapsible diamond design for bigger films has become a narrow elongated loop with little clips attached if you want to clip it at its midpoint to make two even smaller films.

I believe it will work ok with all of Gazillion's "big bubble" toys.

Bigger wands like TriStrings, Unbelievabubble Swords or KIB = NOT.

It's another year & as they have for 5+ years now, Gazillion has not failed to disappoint serious bubblers who were fond of the stellar line of Toys they made with Fan Yang.

Can it be used as the "Secret Ingredient" (like the original Mr. Bubbles) in home made brews? I haven't tried it yet but based on my trials with other Gazillion liquid based products in the past, I doubt it.

At $5 - $6 (USD) for two liters... it's a great price for another Gazillion product I don't think you're going to use.
