Just seen a vid on You Tube of the new Atom Bomb from Bright star. By all accounts this appears to very similar to the old Proton Bomb.
Hallelujah !!!!

I fancy a few of these and will buy some,my only slight concern is if the yobs discover these and start letting them off late at night,and give the Anti Brigade ammunition.

Nice bit of flash in these babies.
I think the coloured burst gets them around the air bomb ban.
I wonder how long this will last ? At around £8 for a 2 pack hopefully it might deter the neds !

Just to clear this up.

These are good, but don't get too excited. These are NOT like the mega loud burst of old.

And with good reasons, of course.
OK, interest in fireworks to be resumed in the spring. It usually is. ;)

Still... its good to see Bright Star making an attempt to cater for the majority of enthusiasts / consumers who enjoy loud fireworks. I take it the good reasons you refer to are - putting a stop to the anti social use of fireworks. Unfortunately this has deprived the vast majority of us decent, responsible folk from enjoying those old school fireworks.
I find it encouraging that companies like Bright Star, Epic etc are listening to their customers and offering up very good quality flash based fireworks.
