[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are very cool looking and the kids are very excited to have just on that alone but these pencils are very durable when compared to the other pencils these don't break as much and my kids felt they could get a good grip on it and it was fun to write with and the eraser , erases cleanly they can't wait for school to start to use these in school too

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love these pencils. They look great, erase well and are bright and colorful! They even work great for when travelling as you don't need to sharpen them - just stick in more lead! They really last well and are perfect for school!

BIC Velocity Awesomeness

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first, when my daughter and I opened the first pencil we were a bit confused because the tip looked like a pen. It didn't look like the typical mechanical pencil. We both second guessed and checked the packaging :). The pencils come in bold popular colors. My son requested the blue and my daughter just wanted any one of them. The pencils are very easy to hold. Unlike other mechanical pencils, they have a rubber like grip at the base that makes it more ergonomical to use which in turn makes it easier to hold when writing. The pencil writes clearly and like any other pencil. The eraser is a similar size to other pencils too. For some reason I expected a larger eraser for such a nice pencil. The eraser removes the lead easily unless the the user presses hard when writing. Overall this is a high quality mechanical pencil that is designed to make a color statement at school. It is a bonus that is is ergonomical and easier to hold. Win win for parent and kid.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After receiving my free BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils from NzzAgent, my kids were super excited to see the variety of color and couldn't wait to get started on their writing. Not only are they a trusted brand, but affordable too! Thank you BzzAgent for selecting me to try BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils.

Awesome pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are built more like a pen, very sturdy. They have a cap on the eraser. When you push the eraser down and push the lead in the tip goes into the body of the pencil so that it can't snap off. It protects the lead so much better than other pencils like these and they don't jam up when adding new lead. These are really great for my daughter who loves to draw. My son loves them too for when he writes in his notebooks the cap on the eraser keep it in the pencil not the bottom of his back pack. We love these.

Awesome Color Pack!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I usually use 0.5 mechanic pencils, but it was a nice experience to try the BIC 0.7 pencil. The pencils write very smoothly and the lead doesnt snap easily. It has a nice grip; the eraser is good too. I thought it was a brilliant idea to provide free erasers too!
