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.

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!

The worst thing you can do before watching "Dynamite Warrior" is expect it to be Ong-Bak - The Thai Warrior. Rest assured, this is not that movie, nor is it Dan Chupong's previous outing, the equally amazing Born to Fight. As a matter of fact, this is an entire different kind of movie altogether; if you're not interested in a dose of fantasy, leave this film be and return to Tony Jaa, for this movie really can't be further from realism. With that said, the film does have its flaws that keep it from being as enjoyable as it should be, so don't expect a Marvel superhero flick, either. The story: Jone Bang Fai (Chupong) is the dark, rocket-slinging hero of rural Thailand which has been threatened by the cattle-stealing schemes of the western sellout Lord Wang (Leo Putt, Demon Warriors), who wishes to force peasants to buy industrial tractors. Calling to his aid a beastly bandit (Somdet Kaew-ler) and a demonic wizard with his own agenda of vengeance (Panna Rittikrai, Spirited Killer), he hopes smother the hopes of the people and destroy the troubled hero once and for all. Yeah, the story's not all that great, but that's to be expected with any action movie. The plot does take a bit of a twist concerning the backstory of the evil wizard (easily the most interesting character in the film) and his relationship to Jone Bang Fai and a mystical cattle driver called Singh (played by kickboxing champ Samart Payakarun ). There's also a bit of a romantic/dirty part concerning the wizard's daughter (Kanyapak Suworakood), but that whole angle could easily have been cut out of the movie without much loss of comprehension. What's more disconcerting, though, is how nonchalantly the supernatural aspects of the film are inserted, without any hype or build-up. Take the thief, for instance: at first, he seems like just a tall brute wielding two heavy clubs, but it turns out that when he gets hungry, he gains superhuman strength and endurance - this becomes fact right out of the blue, and it took me several minutes to realize what the deal was. Or the revelation that Singh the cattle driver is endowed with magical powers: at first, you think his fights have simply been poorly choreographed, until it becomes clear that yes, he can kick people from a distance. Pretty much the only weird aspect that is preemptively explained is that a virgin's menstrual blood robs someone of their magic powers - yeek. The fighting content is a mixed bag: pretty much the only aspect it retains from the renowned fight scenes of "Ong Bak" is a penchant for slow-motion, but it's utilized to excess, to the point that every other blow or falling motion is slowed down for viewer scrutiny. The battles consist mainly of technical elbow and knee strikes, Singh and the wizard pushing people around like a couple of Jedi, a couple of neat stunts, and Jone riding around on rockets like surfboards; believe it or not, all of this looks more exciting than it sounds, even though the encounters a-plenty aren't as tightly wrangled as those of more popular Thai films and the occasional wire fu move looks kinda wonky. Keep in mind, folks, this is not the totally-unbelievable-but-still-possible-if-you're-good-enough kind of action that Tony Jaa has served up - this is fantasy fighting, in which people are possessed by monkey spirits and leap twenty feet from tree to tree. In the end, I'm not a huge fan of the film, but Chupong devotees have plenty of reason to check this out. This movie's gotten kind of a bad rap among American audiences simply because they went in expecting the wrong movie, so I implore potentially disappointed folks to know their interests before making a purchase.

It's a great film, and you get to see some of the stories of what thai magic is like. Not to mention that it 1900' saim and they're rockets being used as weapons.

Dan Chupong ("Born to Fight") plays Jone Bang Fai, a young fighter who searches for his parents' killer in this strange, funny, and fairly enjoyable fantasy flick from Thailand. It's clearly influenced by (but not quite as "out-there" as) other Asian martial arts/fantasy films like "The Bride With White Hair", and "A Chinese Ghost Story". Lord Wang (snicker) is trying to get farmers across the country to get some modernity by having them sample the peppy new invention known as the tractor, and dispense with the smelly cattle that they have used for centuries. Most men are impressed until they see the lofty price tag. When Lord Wang can't sell any, he hires a (sometimes) cannibalistic brute to beat the living snot out of the farmers and swipe their livestock. This behemoth likes to wait until his victims sit down for a nice meal before attacking as he gets tougher when he's hungry. Our hero, unaware of who Lord Wang is, repeatedly knees Wang's subordinates in the chest and returns the farmers' property. When our hero finds the man he is looking for, and cannot defeat his magical fighting skills, he enlists the help of Lord Wang and a demon whose GORGEOUS daughter's fecundity holds the key. This is an interesting movie. Not a great film, but definitely entertaining. Funny characters and dialogue help keep it moving between action scenes, which is where the film (ironically) is a little bit of a letdown. The fights are all wire-enhanced Muay-Thai, and everyone not struck with a blunt, wooden object, takes a knee or an elbow to the head or chest. Oh, and some get hit by rockets too! The choreography starts getting repetitive after a while, though it does get bloodier, so that helps. The fights and stunts are fairly well done, I just wanted to see a little more variety. Do not expect "Ong-Bak" One thing I will say about the movies I have seen from Thailand, which really only consists of this, and two of Tony Jaa's flicks, is that the camerawork is always beautiful and impressive. The use of landscape and angles are certainly the work of consummate photographers. Not the jerky, grainy, claustrophobic work seen in American action films. I want to see what's going on, not have a seizure. I would hesitate in recommending this film only because it's not for all tastes. If you like fantasy and martial arts, you'll presumably enjoy it. I'm really not that big on fantasy and I still dug it. In fact, the more I'm thinking about it, the harder it is not so smile. In Thai with English or Spanish subtitles, or English dubbed. Widescreen too. 3.5/5. 2006. aka: Five Warriors; Tabunfire

I have a huge Kung-fu movie collection and after watching this movie I had to sell it. There is too much B.S. in this movie. I gess it is good for A laugh!

The first 15 minutes of this movie are a little silly and boring, but the movie get better and turns out to be very entertaining. The special effects with the fireworks flying the air are amazing!!! And the fight scenes are very well done. Some of the characters have special magical powers, and that adds an interesting mix to the fighting.

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-

These little bottles are really useful for anyone into henna. They make storage and application super easy. The metal tips are durable and haven't bent at all. The only downside is that the set doesn't come with lids for storing the henna without the applicator tip in place. The best thing I did was put the bottle in a ziptop bag. Works fine as long as you leave it upright.

My henna skills went up exponentially with this bottle. i have not tried any other bottles or the cones, but I liked this set up. Henna almost never clogged. Could be a little easier to clean and it hurts your fingers as it gets empty, but both of these are expected.

This is a really great set of bottles for henna. I've found similar kits that are really expensive, but this one has an awesome price.

I love having the different sized tips, and the henna I ordered with it was excellent!

I am just beginning to do Henna tatoos and these bottles and especially the tips are a great way to start. The tips come in various sizes so you can play around w/ them until you find the one that works for you.

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.

This sequel to Serrated Scalpel is definitely worth your time! Whether you're a hardcore Sherlock Holmes fan, a mystery lover, or a Victorian-era enthusiast, this is the game for you. The story is very deep, but very engaging (you really must take notes to keep the facts straight). The atmosphere of this game is entrancing, making sure you'll find yourself immersed in the Victorian London. The dialog is witty witty and the characters are quirky. Best of all, the characters, plot, and locations are well within the realm of the original Sherlock Holmes stories. Hardcore fans won't find themselves rolling their eyes at all. There are only two drawbacks to this game: 1. If you get stuck, it is very time-consuming to visit all of your locations to be sure you didn't miss anything. 2. The routine Sherlock and Watson go through every time you enter and exit 223B becomes tiresome after the first few times. Overall, this game is totally worth paying for. If you can find a copy for under $50, buy it! If not, you'll have to decide what your willing to pay for one of the best Sherlock computer games ever created.
