Men Shun Fireworks Reviews & Recommendations

Fantastic Rocket Pack (Cat2,5m) ?19.99 from Men Shun is a great value rocket pack with 21 assorted garden rockets in 3 sizes, mixed effects from fish to colours to crackles abound, bit small for large displays but garden ones will suit it down to the ground. Recommended

A good cheap fountain pack for Men Shun is Open Sesame (Cat2,5m,?2.49) with three short lived but pretty fountains,Opal Jade and Topaz. They each show a nice colour and just a little bit of crackling sparks, duration is a bit short though so only good for young children who will like them, and good where space is limited too.

Men Shun The Enchanted Forest Fountain(Cat3,25m,?4.99) is a pretty noisy fountain and goes through several colours and crackles and mixes in whistles for a good 2min duration, bit tame at 25m away but for a large spacious garden is perfect, scores 5/5 and definately one to get.

Another nice fountain is Men Shun Gypsy (Cat3 25m,?3.99), which is shorter at 90 seconds but still combines nice colour effects and crackles with finale whistle, again bit small for 25m so use in a bigger garden rather than a large display on open ground at 25m for good effect. 4/5 and good overall value.

A good pack of cakes from Men Shun is Lethal Tank (Cat3,25m,?24.99) which has 6 cakes in a carryout pack with stakes and portfires included, the six cakes are a mix of comets,colour bursts,bangs and crackle bursts all well presented and each have a good burn time for the 24shots each one does. If you like a mix of noise and colour and don't mind upsetting neighbours(warn them first!),then this is for you. 5/5

A good 3in shellburst Whoppa design rocket from Men Shun is The Triad (Cat3 25m ?16.99 retail), it shoots up high with a small tail then boom! one starburst, bang a second starburst then BANG! a third starburst! You'd think it impossible to get three starbursts from a Whoppa design 3in shellburst rocket BUT Men Shun have proved it very possible! 4/5 and well worth a look.

Men Shun TNT Rocket (Cat3,25m,?14.99)

This whoppa clone 3in shellburst rocket looks the part but has a similarity in it's lettering to a certain deceased satellite free-to-air movie channel TNT (the TNT lettering is very similar, minus the yellow oval). It comes in 6 effects, one is a bit limp (pink to green the worst), but the rest are fine tho'. Not one for use in built-up areas due to the size of the head/motor and stick(you wouldn't want this to come crashing down on a greenhouse or conservatory), but those with a good dropzone can safely use it by all means. Not bad at ?15 a rocket it's ?1 cheaper than the Whoppa's ?16 price tag, and has a nice loud burst which is a good thing. Worth a look 4/5
