It's a stunning firework, Galactic pretty much home fire and film all their own fireworks on site, no manufacturer enhanced tosh to worry about, WYSIWYG

Drop by their forum, there's a long review here if it helps :

I wouldn't bother with the maximum Showtime, it's overpriced imo!!!

Also don't forget to sign up to the less biased and better Fireworks Forum: http://www.fireworks-forum.org.uk/

This was the old UKFR and has a large number of fireworks companies as sponsors, offering a lot more variety than just one company and their own forum (not knocking Galactic here btw).

Newsbox fireworks just did a demo night and UKFR has just updated the review section with a load of videos. There's a wealth of knowledge on this forum and we can help you get the best pyro for your money that isn't just Epic and Brothers (even though they both make great stuff). The new Men Shun Governor is apparently quite the finale piece with all 3 fired together, plus Devco and Sovereign also out there making some of the best consumer pyro out there, even though not many people have heard of them.

Why the need for popcorn, it's the truth

Yup, it was mental, Screaming Spiders and Thunderous Finale NEVER disappoint as a finale :beer:

Lol, no need for popcorn, trade orientated forums can co-exist alongside fun orientated forums, like Galactic

Will concede trade/pro based forums often have the better bun fights though!

Nice, seems they've upped the ante and replaced the 25 Carat with 2 extra cakes rather than the one. Cyber Box still available too! Easily the best supermarket gear.
