Thank you for the playlist but I was wondering how your 200g cakes have not been flipping because last year I bought a lot of 200g and they kept on flipping so can you give me tips so they don’t flip this year thank you.
Your exactly right!!! I have nothing against the purple ghost except for their prices. Their doing AT LEAST 400% markup! I'm pretty sure a big part of that is the buy one get one scam. These are always rip offs, yet people eat it up and think their getting a good buy. They have some pretty cool products actually and it's pretty obvious that a couple of them are re-wraps. Sea Serpent and Rock Around the Clock especially! I haven't checked out their whole inventory, I just remember those from watching a walk through and almost fell out of the chair when I saw the price!!!
The "fountains" put me in mind of something from a sci-fi book I recently read. Scientists were experimenting with a really, REALLY high energy substance to see how good it would be as a power source. They wanted to test a worst-case scenario of using too much fuel to see how badly it would damage the generator . . . Due to a clerical error, they were given a milligram of the stuff in stead of a microgram. A thousand times more energy than they were expecting. It vaporized the entire lab.
man i love your videos bro always got good vibes and i always watch your channel thank u bro for the cool stuff u do and i would get this assortment to do like a little show for a small group of people
I love your firework assortment videos! 😍🤩Assortments like these ones unfortunately don't exist at my local stores in Austria but very nice video as always. 👍
I'm going to phantom fireworks from now on. Went to skyking fireworks to pick up some stuff for labor day. Bought a assortment box called "I love ny. And didn't get half of the stuff. And pay 200. Buy one get one for " 99 cent. Total b/s. Thanks to your channel I'm learning how to save money.
Phantom is so insanely overpriced. Every year I walk in thinking let's see what they have and end up walking right back out, no exception this year with the shortages prices are even more insane
Man i really enjoy the unboxing and then lighting them off, thats soo awesome! The only bummer is sometimes you set aside certain items that either you can't light off at the moment or are going to be used for another video, and those are usually the ones that i really want to see. In this video i really wanted to see the parachutes and the ground flowers lol i know i such a child at heart. One time you had received a firework in an assortment that you couldn't light off because of wind, it was red and blue i think and had the cardboard wings on it, it was also shaped like a pill. Ive been curious about that bad boy, oh well i guess that just means i have to binge watch more of your content lol. Much love as always from Southern California where we cant have guns or fireworks, but hey at least we got good weed lol!
even more significant is that most of the fireworks are pretty much the same it is just the packaging and graphics that sets them apart. for example the tank in this set is themed to the set but in another set you will get a turtle or maybe a car but all of the rolling ones do the same thing have a rocket propelling to move the piece and a fountain sprayer that shoots from the top. the tank maybe slightly different as a tank is not complete without a gun so it may shoot sparks on a delay. 1. you should never have each piece close to the others as the sparks from 1 could set off the others. 2. you should have water on hand to put out faulty ones and to cool off the that are spent.
Got a load of dominator and mad ox from RKM in February, so glad I did If I could still get same order it's more than doubled since then I stopping retail buying a long time ago, especially phantom
Sadly the only major retailer we have here with bigger fireworks recently being legalized is phantom. We’re headed up to another place about an hour the opposite direction this weekend to pick some big stuff up hopefully. But headed for phantom afterwards….
3:05 Phantom if you are watching please sell the Galaxy Floral Shells 4 pack as a standard alone item, these are great if you need a quite aerial and easier to clean up over 8oz rockets. I would pay $25 for a 12 pack.
I think a good video idea is showcasing how firework makers can use packaging to deceive the consumer. Ive seen some rockets that look like they have a canister shell on them but are really just a big rocket with a cardboard top🤬
i get why phantom has super high prices their entire business model depends on 2 holidays other than that the stores are dead. thats fine and all but even 2 of those assortments should of been under 100 in a normal year and thanks to last year cargo ships from china are few and far between with fireworks my retailer has been waiting since august of last year for his 2 trailer loads and what he does have in the prices are sky high lol 75 for a 500g cake. maybe next year will be back to normal lol
Shipping prices have gone trough the roof and in Europe many brands are trying to delay shipments as long as possible (There's still plenty of time before New Year's Eve). Shipping cost of single standard container from China to Finland was 1600€ ($1950) in November and 7500€ ($9100) in January few months later. Prices have already jumped here, but one can still get 900-1000g cakes for 60€($75) and 400-500g cakes for 20-30€ ($25 to $36). In USA: Does it read on the cake how much powder it has? In Europe that's mandatory. What about secondary fuse? I mean if the cake stops working half way trough one can light up secondary fuse and the cake will start from the end and go towards starting point.
You took the words right out of my mouth. Also during Covid they realize people are bored and itching to get out and at this point will pay anything for stimulation lol
Phantom is the only shop I don’t go into When I go to pahrump way to expensive and pretty rude employees have a 10 year old son that is excited for fire works and gets told not to touch anything so I left and went to Area 51 where they gave my son his choice of 200 gram cake just for buying anything
Fireworks were definitely higher priced this year. I bought all mine last weekend for the fourth from a black cat outlet in NM and paid almost twice as much as last year for about the same things. Got a feeling it's going to be a gouge to make up for last year.
Last year was a record breaking year fireworks wise. A ton of ppl sold out. The price mainly comes from shipping. The price for a shipping container went up around 20% and there was only one port in China operating till around February. So as with everything else those costs trickle down to us. Unfortunately 2019 was probably our last year for cheaper fireworks for a while
@@ericthiel4053 agreed and with the shipping delays at customs this year only 75% of the fireworks will make it. I’ve spent $2,300 on works so far and our local mom and pop hasn’t even opened yet. Gotta support local business lol
Uhhhuh huhuhuh Hey Beavis, Phantom overcharged him like WHOA on this assortment....they always do.....lol still great video as always bro!...I just finished watching the Beavis and Butthead movie on TV for some reason lol 😆
I ended up buying one single "Premium Happy Planet" cake. Now that I know it's more so for kids I guess I'm taking that one out of the adult rotation. Even though it's the "Premium" one. Good to know!
I wish we had assortments like this in California! $150.00 in CA gets you one assortment with a bunch of single tube fountains! We don't even get decent BOGO deals! 😭
I dont know if you are getting sponsored by phantom but they are the worst retailer in the country. Love the channel. Would love to see you do a state by state road trip and breakdown of best fireworks shops. Glad u gave a real honest breakdown
I’m not sponsored by any firework company enough to give a fake review lol no worries! I do have some firework companies sponsoring me, however if their fireworks suck I don’t do videos of their fireworks or I’m just honest if I like them or not. They’d have to pay me thousands and thousands if not a million dollars to lie. So you have nothing to worry about hahaha
Phantom is like kohls. Prices are ludicrous until you figure in coupons, bogos etc. Them they are competitive... Some times better... Some times not. If you walk in phantom and pay full price for each item you are a jacko that doesn't do your homework. They have some really good proprietary stuff though and this year with coupons and deals they beat the competition slightly. I used gift card deal, premiere 50% buy one get two and some coupons to make it a decent deal... At least not worse than retail elsewhere... And I shopped multocal stores and multiple online options
I'm so ready for the 4th I have already blew about 1700 bucks but as I went looking through my stuff I forgot to get a few things so I'm going to go and spend another 100 or two
One trick with phantom kind of dickish but you can always cash out and if they don't do the %50 off just leave and they can put it all back or take your cash and make a sale. Premiere membership I think starts at $500 and is good for 3 years been awhile since I've been there lol
Phantom fireworks is super expensive!!! This year they had an offer of buy one get two free with coupon, which made the 500 g cakes for $150 worth it because in turn you really only spent 50 on each but without them coupons it would cost a fortune!!!
That assortment where im from retails at $184.99 half off would be $92. Ill admit phantom prices are ridiculous but they have no competition here so they can charge whatever they want and people will probably pay it. I surely have.
Honestly I agree but u should go for the jaws it's an aerial cake produced by brothers pyrotechnics and bug eye is a good one to aswell if your a fan 9f the movie rango you'll love the bug eye cake
There's only 11 days to go until the mom and pop roadside fireworks stands open up here in my state. I can hardly wait. I like to get there early in the morning before the alphabet guys show up and take away all the good stuff.
Here’s a playlist of all my Phantom Fireworks videos in one place: ruclips.net/p/PL-spxxtjsOdTaGx7kvkfPUxczjRPhWRsj

That's a $25-30 assortment. The prices Phantom charges are so insanely outrageous it makes me sick. Loved the video as always though Cody 🤙
Thats not even worth 150 phantom is to high
Expensive year for fireworks, good thing those stimy checks came in clutch 😉

I feel like I’m reliving my childhood every-time I watch a video.
The "fountains" put me in mind of something from a sci-fi book I recently read.
Scientists were experimenting with a really, REALLY high energy substance to see how good it would be as a power source. They wanted to test a worst-case scenario of using too much fuel to see how badly it would damage the generator . . . Due to a clerical error, they were given a milligram of the stuff in stead of a microgram. A thousand times more energy than they were expecting.

This would of costed like 500 bucks at phantom shops in CA.
The 4th is my favorite holiday for sure!
Same here
man i love your videos bro always got good vibes and i always watch your channel thank u bro for the cool stuff u do and i would get this assortment to do like a little show for a small group of people
I got my military discount and got the 50% off spent over 600 dollars got everything for 357.00 not a bad deal.
You should make an only fireworks assortments unboxing and demo playlist.That makes your channel a lot more sweet

Idk ab where you’re at but around me basically everything is half off
I agree with whoever said The Godfather assortment that would be insane😂
1 more day till the 4th y’all! 🇺🇸 💥
I just bought fireworks and they were a lot more expensive
You deserve more subscribers man! Great channel!

Phantom fireworks is a rip off you can get that everywhere else for like $50

To be a premiere member at phantom fireworks you have to spend $900.
Hey @CodyBPyrotechnics do you think assortments are worth it? Or do you think its cheaper to buy individually?
that was fun to watch cracked me up good job pyro B
Nice assortment!
I need to Cop that shirt, looking sick. I also love these types of videos!
Cody those little spinners are the best value great little things
I wish we had all these novelties in Canada especially firecrackers and bottle rockets

I see you have the same luck with the mini fountains that I do with smoke tubes: KABOOM 😂
Not worth it.
Whatever it is too worth it. Just because you think it ain't. Don't buy it again
Yeah you're right that's pricey for that.
I got an assortment pack last year that's was 50 and had twice as much as that and it was Dominator brand
Impressive single shots for sure
Always a joy
One trick with phantom kind of dickish but you can always cash out and if they don't do the %50 off just leave and they can put it all back or take your cash and make a sale. Premiere membership I think starts at $500 and is good for 3 years been awhile since I've been there lol
Cody can you do the Godfather assortment?, also whats your favorite thing to eat at a bbq, mines baby back ribs
I’m a potato kind of guy lol so if we are having a BBQ, potatoes are a must! Other than that, I’d have to say my favorite is the same as yours!
Grand finale assortment is pretty good from phantom. The prices have gone up again as of late April 2022..
