Found this when I was refusing a few cakes for New Years this morning. The connecting fuse between rows is missing. I had one just like it on July 4, though I didn't see that one.

Makes you wonder how much QC takes place. Happy to see they got the hole punched though.

That cake even had a number hand written on the bottom.

If you can find the 12 year old Chinese kid who made that cake, I'd give him a good talking to if I were you!! :p

That is a bit odd... I have seen where they build a cake to be x number of shots, and one or more rows are empty tubes... Don't think Aquarian is like that. Rpg was like that it looked like a 9 shot cake but was only a 6 shot.

Some one in China was hungover that day...

Hey guys, We haven't seen or heard of any other complaints about the Aquarian's (or the rest of the 12 shot cakes) not going off all the way so I think this is more of an isolated incident. Hard to tell how this happened. When these cakes are being assembled & labeled they are handled so many times. It could have gotten accidentally pulled out or as Kenny said they had a hangover and just plain missed it! Thank you for catching this and even though it was only a few fuses out of 1000's of cakes made, we will still pass this on to our supplier to tell the factory.

Thanks! Mike

I had a case of Aquarian and a case of 500g silver diadem that was defective but that was a good 10 years ago.At the same time I had a mini-stepper(baby of 220 shot high stepper)just blow apart and shoot the colored balls in all directions.Thank God I was just testing in a field by my house alone....i must say it did look cool though like a water cake.
