Question about similar fireworks efx across various brands

[masterblaster]

hey everyone

I'm wondering if anyone may know of any of the sponsors here who may have an equivalent to the below phantom products. I like these because of the quick time between shots and the amount of shots. I see these being used in packs for false finales or for finales but, like all phantom products they're wicked expensive. I want about 6 of each, but not willing to spend $654 for 12 cakes :-/

WF? 76?

You can order a couple of cases of each from B. J. Allen, but I imagine it will be about the same price once you include shipping. Still, you'll be getting an extra 4 cakes. Overstock Central has a 30 shot cake called Kung Pao. It looks like it might work for you if you don't mind the crackle. They also have a 25 shot cake called Out Cold that might work as well.

(G-086) Tropic Thunder, 30 Shot(Case Pack:4/1) $115.00
(G-151) Crown Brocade Classic, 30 Shot (Case Pack:4/1) $115.00
I don't know about shipping, I live by them so I just pick them up at the warehouse.

yeah if i lived nearby that would be a different story, but shipping would bring the price right back to retail.

Confucious say : wise man not shop at Phantom .
:cool:

That's the crux about buying fireworks. How fast do you need them? Right now, phantom is running a buy one get two sale. You could buy two of each cake and get two identical cakes. This would get you six of each and would save you roughly $200 if you have a store close by.

Phantom and BJ Alan company are one of my advertisers. If you look at the BJ Alan website the case prices are decent. Find the Phantom banner on pyrotalk and click on it, it takes you to the BJ Alan website. Not sure how they handle the finer details of the sale. The way to get a good price from any fireworks distributor is to buy fireworks when the general public is not buying them. Secondly is to get your budget up.
This is the nice thing about having an ATF license and buying professional 1.3 fireworks. All the consumer marketing strategies are gone. The price of 1.3 fireworks from a distributor stays pretty consistent all year. However, my research is telling me hobbyist ATF license holders are still buying 1.4 fireworks are 50% of their purchases.

Mardi Gras Fiesta rocks the house! I try to buy a case of these every year. Awesome cake.

Hold the line is nice, I would just recommend shooting at least 2 or more at a time from separate locations to get the most out if it.

Gorilla Warfare, Fighting Rooster, and Greeeen by world class are all the same as Mardi Gras except for the color. So if you don't mind if the color is changed but the pace is still the same, go with those
