How to Identify Each Variant
4 simple tests to check your pull
- Light Test: Hold under direct light. Common variants have a smooth matte surface. Glitter variants will sparkle visibly.
- Texture Check: Feel for embedded glitter particles in the TPR material. Uncommon variants have a subtle grit texture.
- Glow Test: Charge under bright light for 30 seconds, then move to a dark room. Rare variants will glow visibly.
- Shimmer Test: Rotate slowly under light. Ultra-rare holographic variants display a rainbow shift effect.
Pro Tip
Keep rare variants in their original steamer basket packaging. Mint-condition packaged dumplings command 2-3x higher resale value than loose ones.
