Yeah, but you don't have the gift of explaining it so I can understand it better. You just confuse me.

Perhaps, but I just don't see those ever looking like normals. I mean, look at their heads. That's crazy. I know you've mentioned the head pattern before and even showed pics and I couldn't see any difference. But these guys are another story. Even if they did darken up, they're obviously different.

Here's a pic of the pastel you sent to me. This is Olivia. I initially loved how bright white her base color was, and also the tinge of neon green. Well, she's darkened up quite a bit. That green turned dark olive, and kind of "dirtied" up her bright white. Still, a very good looking checkered though but I don't see any crazy head pattern on her at all. Looks normal to me. Of course naturally her head is blurred here but it looks normal, pattern-wise. Anyway, she's great. Much nicer color IMO from the usual drab looking brownish normals.
