Awesome Colors

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these pencils are cool looking. They do have a nice design, soft grip, and cool colors. But I see no difference in these pencils than with any other mechanical pencils. The lead seems to be the same. The eraser works good for the most part, but you have to go over it a few times. And there is a cap on the eraser,

BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils! The design is wonderful, the grips make writing more comfortable, the eraser protector is a great addition and the pencils come in fun colors that my children enjoy. What is not to love! I am a school supply junkie, as a home school momma, and I definitely would recommend these to friends.

They made the bag cut!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We started school yesterday and both of my school aged kids packed these pencils in the bag. That's extremely high praise from the child who had her bag packed for weeks, with folders and binders color coded by subject. It's slightly less high praise from the kid who tossed some supplies in his bag the night before, but still praise, as he had options. They like the mechanical pencils because they are always sharp and the erasers consistently work. My college age kid prefers a metal mechanical pencil with thinner lead (.5 vs. the .7 in these pencils). Those pencils are definitely higher quality with a better hand grip/feel, but they are also considerably more expensive. The BIC velocity are a great pencil for the cost. My son mentioned that he thought the hand grip was a nice feature.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave the pencils to my kids so that they could try them out at school. They love them. The y pencils are easy to grip and write smoothly. I tried out one at home and feel the same way. We love BIC pencils.

Penpal- ahoy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We received the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils in the mail and my 8 year old son immediately decided to write to a good buddy who moved away. He loved the bright colors and the lead held up to his writing pressure. The lead is thick enough to keep from easily breaking and not pushing through the paper while thin enough to make a neat line for letter formation. I especially enjoy the continuous sharp point of a mechanical pencil and find myself reaching for them to write my grocery lists instead of a pen. We are enjoying the ability to share extra pencils and coupons with friends who are buying school supplies. We appreciate receiving these pencils for free to try in exchange for our review on Bzzagent. We will definitely seek these pencils out.

Mom is just as Impressed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I couldn't find an ink pen the other day, so I grabbed a Velocity... Pinkie, because what 11-year old can use a pink pencil? I was immediatley impressed with the pencil, confusing it with an ink pen thanks to the plastic on the bottom that provided the pencil support so not to break... I like that... I began writing with the pencil and discovered that it even writes as smoothly and easily as an ink pen (its been a long time since I used a pencil.) My writing actually looked good! The eraser wipes all of my mistakes away and I personally think pink rocks... Now I can understand why my son is so very excited and picky about the pencils he uses... These are totally worth the buy!

Super Cool!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids were so excited to add the new BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils to their back to school gear this year. They thought they were super cool compared to the traditional old school pencils. I have already saw my daughter drawing and doodling with them in her spare time as well! I think the look means a lot to kids and these definitely have the look, plus they write very smooth and clean. Both my kids are in love with them and have already asked for more.
