Epic Fireworks new range for 2010 just keeps getting bigger and better. This latest release is another to ensure we have plenty long duration fireworks to keep your party banging all night long.

Crescendo has 105 shots of brilliant mixed effects and beautiful comet tails that spin and crackle as they rise into the night sky. Of course the video we have for you here is not quite a night sky, it was a bit early in the evening when we tested this one in China, but we feel that its good enough to give you an idea of what the Cresendo will do.

Heres the review:

Epic Fireworks presents the Crescendo, 105 shots of brilliant loud bangs and crackles, accompanied by beautiful violet and blue mines with silver strobing stars. Crackling comet tails rise into large multicoloured chrysanthemums with green, red and silver stars and clouds of crackling gold. With a whopping duration of almost 1 minute 15 seconds this is a fantastic single ignition barrage with a steady and busy performance throughout.

Oriental Fireworks, although a fairly new name in the UK fireworks industry has already established itself as a producer of high quality display barrages. This is well illustrated by the success of the small 25 shot barrage King Cobra. This sensational small barrage could not have been more popular and was one of our best sellers of last year.

This new single ignition barrage by Oriental Fireworks has a lot of noise and is perfect for lovers of loud fireworks. 100 shots of screaming spinning tails rise up to loud reports (bangs) that will definately make an impression at your fireworks display, whatever the occasion.

Heres the review:

Oriental Fireworks has a lot of noise to make and they do it well with the Jet Screamers 100 shot barrage. This is an insane and terrific noise maker. Screaming jets of spinning tails rise into the air and explode with very loud reports. If you want to make a lot of noise and get noticed this is definitely the way to do it. Perfect for daytime events or anyone who likes to make a racket. This is our favourite new noisy firework and we are sure it will be yours too.

So there you have it, not a lot to say about this one except loud loud loud!!!

Marvel Fireworks have done it again. Just when you thought you could not pack any more weird and wonderful sound effects into a SIB (single ignition barrage) the amazing Skullcrusher pushes the boundaries even further. The hummers in this one are really unique, we have never heard a sound quite like it from a firework (or anywhere else for that matter) before.

Heres the review:

Marvel Fireworks makes another hit with this amazing 200 shot single ignition barrage. With a duration of just 45 seconds this has a high intensity and after a steady start it really builds up the pace. Crazy and unique hummers and brilliant whistles make this a very unusual barrage and definitely one for noise lovers. Coloured pearls lead onto large swirling silver tails and this accompanies bursting red waves and red and green stars with silver glitter. This is a great fast paced and busy barrage and the sound effects make it a winner every time.

Marvel Fireworks continue to impress us in 2010 with some excellent new releases that are showing the way forward in firework design. Who can forget such incredible barrages as Rogue Vipers, Tank Buster and the insane Devils Dungeon. That is not to mention some of our most popular rockets ever (ok we will mention them) like the unstoppable Tomahawk and its little brother the toma-less Hawk. Yes Marvel have certainly delivered so far.

So what of the new range of Marvel Fireworks? Does it live up to the reputation that precedes it? Of course it does!!

The Deep Impact is a big bore 50 shot fan barrage that fires out 5 at a time and gives a brilliant spread that will definately give you something to Marvel at on your displays (see what we did there? Marvel? Get it? Never mind) Scheduled to arrive in store summertime 2010. Get your orders in now!

But enough prattling on, heres the review:

Marvel Fireworks, surely the most popular new firework brand in recent years has added another gem to its crown. Deep Impact is a brand new 50 shot large calibre monster of a barrage that has beautiful timing and exquisite effects.

Massive Golden Palms burst 5 at a time after rising through high reaching, strobing golden mines. These huge palms erupt in beautiful sequence and illuminate the sky with long lasting arms as ruby red dahlias dot the palms with colour. The ending is a great surprise of red and green crossettes that spread rapidly and split across the sky. This barrage really lives up to its name and is already on our must have list for this year.

Another new release for the 2010 silly season, the Gunpowder, Treason & Plot is certain to be a favourite amongst our regular customers, with a long duration ( about 1.20) and some brilliant effects. Also becuase it is vertical firing and fanned, there will be something for everybody to enjoy from this 54 shot single ignition barrage.

Heres the review:

Epic Fireworks, the UK’s home of fireworks is proud to present another new release for 2010. The Gunpowder, Treason & Plot barrage is a great value long lasting display in a box that has some brilliant effects. This might be known to some of you as the Jabberwocky by Brothers Pyrotechnics. Jabberwocky was a very popular barrage, famed for its large comet tails at the start and busy but long lasting effects.

Starting with coloured comets with silver tiger tails that rise slowly and gracefully, this turns into small silver spinners before the fanned section with bursts of orange peonies to glittering stars. A series of overlapping chrysanthemums of red then green lead into spinning silver tails to red glittering strobes and another fanned section of silver glittering tails to silver strobing stars and ending with large red peonies.

The Gunpowder, Treason & Plot barrage offers great value, great duration and a great vertical and fanned performance; a great addition to any display.

We proudly present, the Earth Shaker, 72 shots of loud loud effects, whistles and hummers that will have you shaking on the ground you are standing on.

This is a brand new release for Epics 2010 range and will be a popular one with a great duration (almost 2 minutes) and a finale that will leave you breathless.

Heres the review:

Find something to hold onto and hold on tight, cos this is the Earth Shaker!

Brand new for 2010 this is one is going to make the very ground tremble.

Earth Shaker by Epic Fireworks delivers high decibel action from start to finish and lasts a whopping 2 minutes! That makes this one of our longest duration barrages. With 72 massive shots delivering very loud bangs, whistles, hummers, huge red peonies, crackling comets, silver strobing stars and a HUGE multi shot finale of a giant cloud of crackling stars. This is going to upset the neighbours, guaranteed.

Oriental Fireworks have got quite a name in the UK fireworks industry, with instant classics such as, Shogun, First Dynasty and the peoples favourite, King Cobra. Now, kung fu storming the block  like El Nino, is the Frozen Sun. The brand new release for 2010.

Frozen Sun is 102 shots of sheer entertainment, fired at a more relaxed pace to give a value for money performance with excellent variety and timing.Scheduled to land UK side late this summer, it should be here in plenty of time to settle in at its new home Epic Fireworks brand new site at J36 of the M1 motorway. More about Epics New home coming soon.

But enough about that, heres the review.

The Frozen Sun is this year’s new barrage from Oriental Fireworks. With a whopping duration of over 1 minute 35 seconds this is a long lasting firework with a great variety of effects. Which start with fanned mines and crackling clouds, red and green pearls and fanned silver dragons tails that burst into large chrysanthemums. This moves into a mix of blue mines and peonies, red and green peonies and silver glitter and crackling. Awesome blend of effects and an awesome duration, this is another winner from Oriental Fireworks and only available from Epic.

2010 has seen a lot of new releases into the UK fireworks market. This is perhaps one of the most scintilating as it sees a return of a past master that many thought would never enter the UK again. The Open Fire SIB (single ignition barrage) by Brothers Pyrotechnics is one of the all time favourite fireworks of our customers. A great price, a great effect with a good duration and a large calibre all combined made the Open Fire one of the best selling fireworks we ever had. Sadly, as Brothers Pyrotechnics got out of the 1.3G market in the UK it looked like such an effect would never be seen again. Until now.

Working closely with Brothers Pyrotechnics we have managed to bring it back, with a vengeance.

Chemical X under the Marvel Fireworks logo has saved the day, the same great firework with the same great effects. Heres the review.

The new release from Marvel Fireworks Chemical X has a few secrets up its formulaic sleeve.

This is a straight copy of one of our most popular sellers ever, the Open Fire by Brothers Pyrotechnics. Red and blue comets with spinning silver tails break into large and strong chrysanthemums, fired at nice steep angles to give a good spread across the sky. This is punctuated by intervals of large golden willows with slow falling trails that light up and ending with a brilliant cloud of crackles. This is a beautiful fireworks and sensational as a finale when lit in pairs.

Sounds great? It is and is one of our more talked about barrages already for this year. This should be arriving in the UK about mid summer so you will have to wait a little bit longer before getting to smell the smoke on this one, but we guarantee it will be worth the wait!

Brand new release for 2010 to be hitting the shelves at Epic Fireworks this summer.

The Angels vs Demons is already one of our most talked about new fireworks and has received a warm welcome on Youtube. We hope you all like it too. Here is the video for your approval. The artwork for this new barrage is still under wraps but rest assured it will have the usual Epic stylings.

Last year we talked to many of you in our showroom and indeed through forums like the UKFR and through comments on Youtube.

We learned that you guys want fast crazy and insane looking fireworks, we are sure that you will agree that the Angels Vs Demons delivers on all counts.

Heres the review:

One of the hottest new releases from Epic Fireworks for 2010; Angels Vs Demons has a simple effect of spinning golden dragons tails to large brocades and slow falling golden glitter. Sounds a bit plain? Don’t be fooled! This barrage has 70 shots of large calibre angled tubes that fan across the sky giving a rapid and dazzling display of spinning golden lights that are mesmerising. This is surely going to be one of our biggest sellers of the year. You seen it here first!
