[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before I received these pencils, I thought they we're going to be like every other mechanical pencil I have purchased. I was hoping that they sent it with a lot of extra lead. I received these Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils and they looked awesome! The colors are very bright and look like fun to use. Once I opened the package, the smooth grip was a surprise. It's not like any other plain mechanical pencil I have ever seen. The lead seemed much stronger than the lead that I am used to using in other mechanical pencils so I am sure these will last much longer than the old mechanical pencils I have used. You know, the ones that the lead runs out before the eraser. The eraser worked as expected, great! I didn't notice any leftover lead residue or eraser marks. I showed them to my two boys who are in school and they quickly grabbed the colors that they wanted and packed them in their school bags. My husband used one to make some notes, and he must have liked them because he took 2 to work. These are a must have in the office and at home. Great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In my 6th grader words these pencils are awesome". From a mom point I can tell a big difference in his writing (he has never had the best penmanship). My coworkers have already gone and bought some because they liked them so well! I will definitely be buying more of these and I highly recommend them!!!"

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My teenage daughter is starting high school and she loves mechanical pencils. She uses them for every subject especially for doing homework after school. She likes them because she doesn't have to worry about sharpening them or them going dull while using them. Thanks to Bic and BzzAgent for giving us these pencils packs. My daughter hides them from her sister and brother so they won't use them lol.

BIC Velocity is a homerun!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When my kids used the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils, they really enjoyed them. My eleven year old son loves the bright colors. He now carries at least two of these pencils, and a drawing pad with him everywhere he goes. My seventeen year old son is a leftie. He is always very particular about which pencils he uses. He was more than happy that he could grip these pencils and write with them so comfortably. My nineteen year old college student, an art major, tested the pencils out and was pleased with how smooth you can write or draw with them. He also complimented the eraser strength. All three of my boys are enjoying using BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think this are the best mechanical pencils by far. Tgey write clean and smooth the lead doesn't snap right off and the eraser cleans up nicely so you can fix your mistakes!!

My son loves his mechanical pencils!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have always used mechanical pencils but not this particular brand. We're use to using them and once the lead was gone we discarded them. They were very flimsy and could be easily broken. These are of such great quality and my son absolutely loves them.

Where is the color?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First of all I need to say that in general I don't like to use mechanical pencils. I never had. I don't like how they feel, I don't like how they write and I don't like that the lead brakes all the time. That been said I still was a little excited to try the BIC Velocity mechanical pencils because I thought they were different. They looked so colorful I was under the impression they were colored pencils! Unfortunately I got very disappointed because they are not! The orange one writes gray, the yellow one writes grey, well you get the picture. What a disappointment. I feel like I was misled, so was my son, who too thought they were going to be colored pencils. On the other hand, my daughter, somehow, knew they were regular mechanical pencils so her expectations were not as high and she enjoyed using them. I still have the problem with the lead that breaks too easily. Also when I try to erase I guess I must be pushing too hard because I cause the lead to come out. I am ok with that because long ago I came to the conclusion that mechanical pencils are not for me but I still am upset that the packaging was very misleading, for me anyway. It looks like they are colored pencils.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son loves these mechanical pencils. He just worked on a school assignment & was thrilled that not one time did the lead split, crumble, or break off while he was writing. He presses hard when he writes so he will often break the lead. Thank you BIC for making a fantastic mechanical pencil!!
