They don't look the best do they... Still, might just be a couple of ££, acceptable if the price is right.

personally ,i hope lidl dont do karat,ipanema and firefighter.they got such a big selection of stuff (weco) it be nice for something new this year.

I would love to see a completly new range but I really cant see much changing to be honest.

When Lidl stocked Benstar they stocked the exact same products for a long number of years including Blue appollo, gold medal, cosmic cake, hayleys comet and then the exact same selection boxes for a number of years which were black nebula and purple moon selection.

Also from as far as I can remember Aldi sold Cyber Box and FirePack as their main selection for a long number of years. I used to buy the Cyber Box every year with a few other bits before I properly got into fireworks

Cant remember seeing Cyber Box on the Weco website last year either so maybe it could be an exclusive product for UK or something?

I gotta feeling you are right:(.nothing wrong with the stuff ,but something new would be great. Also be interesting to see morrisons range this year. i heard it was bulldog and they bought cosmic so lets see if they are better value than tnt.

There are a couple I agree, the Weco cone definately punches above it's weight & the Quattro Fountain has good duration for a tiddler, it was more the quantity rather than quality that didn't look too good. The larger Big Spider Pack contains a similar amount of fireworks as the smaller Cyber Pack from last year, Cyber Pack was the small £6 offering. The standard Spider pack in video is tiny but if the price was right it would be OK.

Bear in mind we are still at the speculation stage as to what Lidl will actually be stocking

Fingers crossed for a Lidl Weco Diamant Sonne pinwheel suprise, that is a fantastic piece, seems to run forever

I go to Epic and will be doing this saturday;they have a massive range of fireworks,the prices are keen,they look after you by giving you refreshments while waiting for your order,they have plasma screens all round the place ready to show videoclips of what they offer and the service is second to none-can recommend them 100%!:)

Weco diamant sonne is excellent;it lasts way over the 90 seconds claimed for it and is so bright and so good it's quite something for a good quality German made pinwheel.
