2014 Armageddon Assortment product reviews

When you buy fireworks these days you invariably get a Warehouse assortment for $20 or whatever. They contain a load of fizz and zero bang for your buck. When you pay the extra and get this massive family assortment, you will not be disappointed.

We have small kids so gigantic booms and massive roman candles is not our priority when looking for a fireworks assortment, but this box still ticks the boxes for boom and showering displays that wont scare them away indoors. With no less than 8 six shooter sky boom sparkling display fireworks your night will definitely begin with a bang! Follow those with the awesome Magic Whip, the long strand of bright flashing sparking Mission Impossible style fuse firework that lasts for ages. Hang it from a fence or lie it flat on the grass it is great!

There are no fewer than 11 beautiful colorful showering spark displays from cones and freestanding sticks that really light up the back garden and get loads of Ooooohs and Ahhhhhs. Give the kids the multitude of sparklers to write their names with, whilst you light the red flares and setup the Disco Flashers. These things are seriously bright and light up the whole area in blinding white light in a strobing flashing effect.

6 x cannon base fireworks definitely kept the night sky lit up when we used them, giving us an assortment of effects from yellow and red lights and a swarming sound from The Swarm, to a beautiful purple display from the aptly named Purple Lightning. Danger Zone and Doomsday did not disappoint, and neither did the Comet Destroyer. There were also two boxes with smaller projectiles in them called Saturn Missile. These were great rapid fire fireworks with no delay in firing. Loud and cracking the smell of acrid smoke filled the sky!

Overall this was a large heavy box with an excellent assortment to suit the family display. The true bangerhead group of teens might not think this is the best collection for them, but if you want great family value and fun this is the assortment for you, and just as puppies are not just for Xmas, the Pyro Company fireworks product is not just for Guy Fawkes. Contact them for amazing pyrotechnical displays and special events year round.
