Looked at mine a few weeks ago (first time since I got it), same thing. Oh well, guess it beats leaking all over the place.

I rebought mine yesterday in Nashville. Mine was on JW desk prior to and was given to the keyboardist from the B52's for a charity auction. Very cool record but noticed it was losing liquid. Thanks guys for these postings I will hopefully have mine filled up. I don't seem to notice any spots where it is leaking but will hopefully get the color and all right. Any posts of people who've done it would be great.

I know this is a bit late in the thread but how exactly can you insert liquid inside? I know there's a fill hole. Do I just use a syringe and needle?

I would love to know this as well. Mine is sealed up well enough now from a good solid glue session, but I would like to refill it at some point. People keep mentioning doing so, but a video or step by step would be appreciated. The last thing I want to do is further spoil my already silly LFR.

You would use a syringe to refill. And seal the plug with silicone caulk perhaps rather than super glue so that it can be undone in the future.
