Very disappointed with this product. I bought it to clean my Iwata Revolution airbrush but not even the finer/smaller brush will enter the airbrush needle passage. After some struggling and bending it a couple of times in the process it did enter but the fit was so tight I couldnt move it back and forth so it couldnt perform any cleaning of it at all. When pulling it out "by force", several bristles came loose inside the airbrush. Definitely NOT recommended for the advertised use.

I've alway's been a Martial Art's,and action movie fan.Other than the greatest Bruce Lee,Jim Kelly's alway's been one of my favorite's.When I got the opportunity to get this movie I jumped on it.I also own Black Belt Jones,another cult classic.This movie is worth the purchase...you'll be glad you did.I've got a few more to $buy.

Hello, I started buying up Jim Kelly films like crazy cuz they are very funny! Tattoo Connection is no exception and provides great entertainment for a group of mates to sit about with a few beers taking the PXXS out of it. Tattoo conection is offered with Black Belt Jones 2 (The Tattoo Connection) as a double buy from Amazon... they are the same film!!!! It was re packaged as black belt jones 2 to sell more copys but it is not realated sos tear clear if you have one or the other...

B movie at it's best but KUNG FU. Black Belt Jones is back and HE is the one that is gonna take bruce's place. He got on the train and fell off quick, but Jim Kelly had a few pretty good movies. This is definitelyone of them. Add in Lee Hoi-sang, Dorian Tan(delon tan), Bolo, Sing Chen, tony leung sei hung ( a great action director) and a couple of other stars I can't put a name to, and you have a really alomst good kung fu flick. So some diamonds are stolen of course and Jim kelly shows up to track down the robbers. He says-"they call me the black 6 milion dollar man". AHHHHH the cheese, it is good cheese, but just liek anything, you can get too much of it. So save a litle for later if you need to, cause this is a classic and may take two sittings to get through the greatness of it. Sadly it gets REALLY borign at the midway point. So finally the ending comes around and is very unspectacular, but you do get 2 good fights, opne with jim and bolo, other with dorian tan and sing chen. All in all, worth a peek if you are a mega fan like me. And if you don't belieev me about the cheese, then here is the evry last line of the movie. "I'll see you on christmas". They may have finished this movie in 2 days time. For real.

Pathfinder Pictures? Never heard of them. While I'm pleased this movie was released on DVD, I am very disappointed with the overall picture and sound quality. This is one of the worst video transfers I have ever seen and the sound is not far behind. Obviously no money went into restoring this movie for its release on DVD and that's too bad for Jim Kelly fans. Make no mistake; this movie has nothing to do with the martial art's classic Black Belt Jones. Jim Kelly had a supporting role in "Enter the Dragon" and he didn't really get a chance to show us what he could do with his ability. In "The Tattoo Connection" he is the man, but once again this movie doesn't really showcase his martial arts talent either. I struggled to give this movie a 3 star rating but hey it's Jim Kelly. This is a typical 1970's chop socky movie that could have been much better. For martial arts and Kelly fans the fight scene between Kelly and Bolo Yeung is still exciting to watch. The Tattoo Connection is still an entertaining movie, but I definitely think the price is too much considering the poor picture and sound quality from Pathfinder.

This typical Hong Kong 1970's kung fu flick has now been re-released as BLACK BELT JONES 2, although originally released as THE TATTOO CONNECTION.Obviously the distributers have called it BBJ2 to tie in with the popularity of the original movie.This movie is no BBJ but it's quite entertaining if you are a Kelly fan.The film is let down by a scene where a rather choppy fight scene goes horribly wrong,the illusion is ruined and the fight looks fake.What's more, Jim Kelly is hardly in this movie and looks a bit of a fool surrounded by all those unknown Chinese actors.

We got this for my 15 year old neice and it was her favorite Christmas gift. They're temporary & fun.

Very cool. My girls love it. Lasts for a few days on skin. Allows them to be very creative.

after i applied the henna to my hand i left it on through the night while i was asleep (somewhere on the directions it says you get the best results doing it that way) so far its been 4 days since i have had it on. it came out very dark like a mahogany reddish brown and is just beginning to fade. this a great product im still looking for a henna that last a month... if thats even possible. if your looking for henna that stays longer than a week and is very dark... THIS IS IT! :c)

I love this Henna kit!! The only problem is that the paste doesn't stick on your skin very well. It's hard to get a dark design.

This is the best product I've used so far for quick, easy, beautiful results. The quickest way is to buy pre made paste, but I've ALWAYS been disappointed. I just mix this up the night before I plan on using it (with the included solution) and it always turns out great. I also separated the powder and solution into 3-4 equal parts, because a small amount goes a long way. It lasts a long time, and the refills are a great price. The only henna product I'll ever buy!

The kit comes well packaged and with lots of gear, but as soon as we tried it the fuse blew in the box. everything else seems to be ok but that is a serious disappointment.

i receive the product incomplete, without the User Guide for Installation and Adjustment of the Tattoo Guns and when i tried to contact the seller i didn't receive any answer and then one of the machines started to fail not even 2 weeks after i got it, so if you are looking for a beginners kit i wouldn't recommend this for you specially if you are not getting any support from the seller and the equipment is going to fail in less that 2 weeks time-

It's a unique and fun item. I enjoy being able to use my ink jet printer for creative and different projects. The package contained 3 sheets as indicated. ... have fun!

This product said it would contain: "Instructions and project ideas included. Each package contains three (3) 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" Tattoo sheets" When I opened the package all I got was 1 - 8 1/2" x 11" sheet.

This product if very hard to work with, it damages very easily when trying to apply. When on it is not realistic. Poor Product.

The video was okay but not what I was expecting, It had a nice views of hot rods, which I liked. It was too short for the price. There was no dialog. To be fair, I liked the rods, but the rest was just so, so.

Alright, got the hype on this from AMAZON recommendations. Anyone that is great in the Bay area, right? I don't get it. The voice sounds strong from time to time in the CD but it must be way over my head otherwise. I actually don't like most every cut on the CD. From the reviews it looks like I am way off most other folks, so try the preview first, listen closely. But if you like lovely singers go cautiously here.

"Residue" was plugged by Amazon on a page for something else strange I bought, one of those "you may also like" or "people who bought this CD also bought" ads. I read the description and it sounded interesting, so I bought it on spec. As a famous dead Chicagoan one said, HOLY COW! She is sort of a Laurie Anderson for the 21st Century, only with a classically trained voice. There are elements of rock, minimalism, 50s and 60s electronic music, Broadway, old-fashioned country & western, Wagnerian wailing soprano, religious hymns and chant and, yes, the adored Ms. Anderson herself. It is fascinating to hear her pour out both her gutsy and fragile sides with such novel expression. This is the freshest thing I've heard since I first encountered Michael Gordon. For people who want their ears and brains challenged while having sonic fun at the same time, this disk is a must-buy. Her three earlier CDs, all from the 90s, are available from independent dealers affiliated with Amazon. I await their arrival.

Amy X Neuburg is so cool & hip & brilliant! I first found out about her because she performed in an avant-garde classical music festival in NYC, & she stood out to me because her personality is very energetic & her music ideas are so unique. The music on this cd is so intricately, perfectly composed! Her lyrics are always right on in terms of their clever humorous quality AND the sounds of each syllable AND dramatic tension. She really balances everything in the world so well. She did a concert in New Zealand in late 2004, & the review in the newsaper there said that she had apparently gone to the future & taken the future's sounds back to here for her music! She makes music with her voice that I've never heard anything else sound like. & she makes equally brilliant exciting with so much else too!! From static & music to sing while skipping across a bar to a toothbrush & piano, from weird maudlin warbles & mutters to, finally, in harmony with a great whorl of voices, her glistening billowing collected classical voice you could hear over an orchestra (or over a studio full of computers). Monologues, strange telephone calls, meditative monotone chanting, lots of fun. This is one of my favorite CD's! I hope this review has been helpful to you!

This album has the capability of appealing to fans of pop music as much as lovers of the art-rock avant garde. The lyrics are personal yet accessible. The looping and other means of electronic production do nothing but enhance her musical efforts, not distract from them. With such a tremendous voice, hearing six layers of it at the same time translates to an amazing music exerience. The focus really is on the songs, the electronics are there to enrich the compositional intent. You don't feel like you are in the middle of sampler and drum machine circus. Everything is written and performed by her, frequently many layers at a time. It is hard to pinpoint any one artist that would be comparable to her work. There are however, some tracks that could be compared to the work of others ("Residue" has elements of Bobby McFerrin's "Circlesongs," "Finally Black" has the lyrical stylings of an Afro-Celts tune, and "Stone" seems like a Philip Glass opera gone rock). With one person composing, performing, and producing everything, the result is an album full of well-crafted songs that will impress any listener. I can't speak highly enough about it... BUY IT!

I was waiting for this album, and I'm not disappointed.Amy X Neuburg performs solo multi-track musical compositions live using her voice, a looping machine, and a drum-pad controlled synthesizer. Each performance starts from nothing and builds as she layers rhythm and harmony into the loop. Add to this her incredible voice and creativity, and you've got something that must be heard.The Residue album provides studio recordings of a number of songs as I remember them being performed live. I consider this an important quality of the album because part of a live Amy X experience is the awe that one feels realizing that the complex songs are being created and mixed just as one is listening. That said, I feel that many of the recordings have been enhanced or edited in just a few places, which is only to be expected. This is a studio recording, not a live performance. But most of the time the differences from Amy X's incredible live performances are subtle, and improve the song.The album includes my favorite Amy X songs: Stone, Every Little Stain (the toothbrush song, listen at the beginning), My God (with its a cappella harmony), Insomniac, Just a Sound, and Life Stepped In.

If you like Tattoo History as much as I do, you need to own this video. A bunch of old school cats talking about Mr. Collins, telling crazy stories about good ol' times on Hotel Street in Hawaii. Great Video. The video even has extra material.

My husband and I saw this at a private screening in Hawaii a couple years ago. It was too noisy to really enjoy it, so I bought it for my him for christmas. We love it.

I'd heard of Sailor Jerry for years. This movie is a great biography of this revolutionary tattoo artist. Highly recommended.

If you are a tattoo enthusiast, or someone merely fascinated with tattoos, tattooing or tattoo history, this is a must have. Erich Weis takes you on a ride through citys and port towns across the USA interviewing tattoos most legendary tattoo artists to spin a fascinating true tale of one of the most influential tattoo artists of all time. Catch a glimpse of America through a very interesting lense.

If you are interested in tattoo history at all, this film is a fantastic testament to Jerry's generation of tattoo men (and women.) They just don't make 'em like these guys anymore. I just wish the film was longer!
