I think I've found a glitch, though I'm not sure if anyone else has experienced this.

I brought the lava lamp to Cyrus to change the color (I wanted purple, the original is blue) and I thought it odd at first that "blue" was listed on the options even though it already is blue.

So I choose purple, and go pick it up. The damn thing was yellow! So I gave it back to him, and now "purple" isn't a customization option, so I thought I'd try red.

He says to me "oh this just restores it back to its original condition".

....

(ಠ_ಠ)

Cyrus can you not.

I guess I'm going to have to keep trying it until he gives me a purple lava lamp.
 
Positive. Why would blue be one of the options to customize when it is already blue? Typically when you go to customize something, the original color isn't listed. I could understand messing up the first time (because I thought I had), but when I picked "red" and he said that was the original condition, I knew it wasn't me.

If he doesn't get the current option I picked right, I'll try it again and take screenshots. I picked yellow even though it is ALREADY yellow, so we'll see what color I get.
 
I HAD THE EXACT THING! lol. I was waiting to see if anyone else would have this problem... its so weird. for some reason the colors dont match the actual item x.X
 
It looks like the translations are a little bit wrong with the Lava Lamp. I have a problem who had the same problem. Never solved it.
 
I'm basically at this point just picking random colors until I get what I want. I told him to make it yellow and he made it green. So now I'm going to tell him to make it green.

This is the worst kind of trolling.
 
No you’re right this is a glitch! Here’s a list that this person got after calling Nintendo about it. So if you want a purple lamp you have to choose the "Blue" option.

Thank you! Reblogged this on my tumblr for future reference. I am glad I'm not actually crazy.

No problem! It happened to me too when I was also trying to turn my lamp purple and it was such a nightmare. I was ready to strangle that stupid alpaca.
 
I wanted purple too! I gave the "purple" yellow one to Hamphrey XD
Now that I know blue is the new purple, I'll go fix it c:
 
I gave away my lava lamp because I wanted it red and for some reason mine came out orange! I was so mad I said "This isn't even red, do they not know that red is DARKER than orange?!"

But I'm glad to know you can fix it now and since my villagers are so rude I can buy it back at Re-Tail right now!
 
this is defs a glitch. there is a post on tumblr which shows you the correct colors you get for each selection. let me try find it
Lava Lamp
The light color of a lava lamp can be changed from red to blue, yellow, green, purple, or orange. However, the customization options do NOT correspond to the actual color of the object.

The default color of the lava lamp is blue. The corresponding option is red.image

If you ask Cyrus to change the lamp to blue, he’ll make it purple.image

If you want a green lava lamp, choose yellow.image

If you want a red one, choose green.image

Choosing purple yields a yellow lava lamp.image

So choosing orange actually gives you an orange lava lamp!
