My daughter dressed as Vanellope, and these clips brought it home. There are some pros and cons to note.
The plastic candies are made very well. No visible seams, no plastic flash, no bubbles inside the transparent plastics. And the licorice clip was particularly impressive. It appears to have been twisted and looped by hand, then coated. (There was a bubble in the coating, not noticeable when worn.)
Little features were appreciated as well. Some candies shade from one color to another, or have faint glitter suspended inside. The gummy bear colors were excellent, the peppermint striping was perfect.
Other traits are not so great. The small candies are attached to bobby pins and appear able to separate over time. Looks like they're glued on, or perhaps the pin is laid across a mold. Regardless, the attachment was strong enough for a day, but considering cost I'd like these to be more durable. (The attachment between candy and pin is very clean, just looks thin.)
Aside from that, bobby pins in general are irritating to separate for a bald man with broad fingertips, and the candies make it that much more difficult. Hardly a complaint about these cosplay pins specifically, but I'd appreciate a refreshed design with a different choice of clip or even just larger bobby pins.
In any event, these garner a full five stars. The candy quality is excellent, and the only flaws stem from necessary compromises in design. My kids will be wearing these until they fall apart.
These are so adorable and well made. I'm using clip on bangs for my cosplay and the Bobby pins stay put. The candies stand out well against my hair. This puts together my whole outfit!
Really nice for cosplay and nicely made. They worked nicely with the costume. However, shipping was extremely slow.
I loved it! Every one loved actually! It was so creative and sturdy! I will definitely be enjoying these for many more years to come!
These were so cute! I bought the whole set. They were a gift for my granddaughters Halloween costume this year and her mom thought they were awesome! The seller was super in communicating with me to make sure everything came on time. So happy with the purchase. Thank you!!

Arrived in plenty of time, super cute, perfect for vanellope.
Super cute, well made, easy to put in and they stayed in my daughters hair all of Halloween!
To be honest, i was initially expecting somewhat bigger clips. The picture is a little difficult to get a size reference from however I am so happy they are normal candy size. They arrived on time, and they all look gorgeous. My only regret is that I didn’t order more
Little pricey but they did what they needed to
Very cute ... well made.
