I have seen this in house & match box, but so far have resisted temptation!
they look pretty cool, and freeze in 7 minutes on the bench  8)



Will look forward to reading a report if anyone buy's one  ;D

I have bought one online, and am expecting it to arrive in the post any day now - hopefully today so I can play with it on the weekend!   I will report back on how it goes

Did you see the kit you can buy with it so you can add shapes and layers of liquid on angles. Very fiddly but fun looking too ;)

These remind me of the freezable drink containers we had when we were kids - you'd put the container in the freezer and pour your drink in when the container was frozen. It would freeze your drink and make it into a slushy. anyone else remember?

From my understanding of the rules and regulations of H.O. forum, this page is something we would NOT be allowed to post but it is so handy learning of all these things that are on the market that we would never know about if it wasn't for this forum.

Not being a legal eagle, I find rules and regulations a bit hard to understand but I would have thought posting websites advertising products is 'direct advertising' but I could be wrong.

I am "blessed" to have 2 children that don't like ice cream and ice blocks because they are too cold!  I would love to make them something like that......but then I would have to eat them both. Hmmm....good excuse to eat 2 ice creams I think!

tee hee, I have children like that too!  I was thinking I had the only 4 year old around who doesn't like ice-cream!
He talks a lot about them and pretends to eat them a lot but when he has the chance to eat it, he tells me he would only like it if it was warm!   :D

Oh Judy I so hate websites that enforce those kind of rules! Freedom of speech. Let people make their own mind up not be terrified they'll run off to a competitor at a mention! And esp things that aren't even competitors like this but yes I'm sure this would go against HO's rules.

I think that's just there to stop people from abusing the site by trying to use it as a platform to promote their own sales, isn't it? Not that we aren't allowed to let people know about interesting things that we've seen and think that others might be interested in.  That's how I understand it, anyway.
As my picture shows, I've suddenly become younger :-)  DD was of the opinion that her picture should be here, not mine!

I would think that to be the case too.
 Luckily this forum doesn't seen to suffer from one time spammers (at this stage), posting about their imitation goods for sale (which I think is what those rules are leaning towards).
But, I am very guilty of posting about gadgets and products  :P  but I'm not selling them, just letting people know about them, or give an opinion if I found it to worth-while  8)
