probably the best putty ive ever owned !
i got this and the flamingo feathers putty as a gift for this recent christmas . out of both of those , this HAS to be the best one !! the putty itself is super soft and smooth . the boba pearls are slightly squishy , but mostly hard . not enough to play and / or squish them around though ! theres a slight shine / shimmer to the putty , which makes it look super pretty and swirly ( just like how a real boba would look ! ) ! i love this putty so much . one thing i have about all your big putties in particular is that whenever i try and open it it takes a lot of effort since the tin looks dented and / or deformed in some way when i do open it . when i try and close it again i cant due to the tin being dented , so then i just have to keep the putty in a plastic bag . i wish that didnt happen and would be fixed soon ! maybe its just due to the shipping process or something . i still give it 5 stars ! amazing putty

Great putty - terrible packaging
I really, really wish that Crazy Aaron's would change their packaging. That would make it a five-star thinking putty. The putty itself is great - has both stretch and snap, there is an endless variety of different colors, mixins, etc. that keep kids with different interests engaged. I find the putty to be something that I keep on my desk and tend to use when bored in meetings or when I'm (wait for it..) thinking. But - and this is a big but - the packaging stinks. No matter what size putty I get, at some point during the shipping/putting on the shelf process, putty gets between the container and the lid, creating a glue like system that makes the lid impossible to take off. I've broken many fingernails trying. Once I've finally pried it open and rubbed off the putty that's acting like the glue the lid works fine, but it has taken me signficant effort and time to get lids off. (And if you have a surefire, pain-free way to get those lids off, I'd love to know your secret). If you lack hand strength or get easily frustrated, you might consider another brand.

I like the texture of this; I was looking for putty for hand physical therapy. However, the container is only about 1/3rd full. I thought it was a little expensive for the cost per size but when I realized the size was about a third of what they make it appear (the metal packing tin is not see through of course) I was pretty disappointed. It feels like a pretty sleazy thing for the company to do. Would not recommend, or purchase again. Also the container is difficult to get the lid back on.

dried out slime
The packaging is very poor quality. The putty was dried out and when I contacted the manufacturer, they said that's the normal texture. It's so hard, you can't even palpitate it. It was shrunken to a tiny amount. It was a gift for a child, and she was very disappointed. It's too difficult to return because it was from Santa, so it was just a waste of money and a disappointing stocking stuffer. I would not recommend at all.

Used as an angel tree gift so I did not open it, however I love Crazy Aaron's putty and have high hopes for the durability of this putty.

Terrible purchase
Paid $9.99 for this, only to open the container to putty that is extremely hard, looks nothing like the picture and doesn’t even fill half the container. Waste of money.

Satisfying popping sounds
This is one of my favourite putties! The beads make really satisfying popping noises when you stretch the putty and the shimmery gold colour is so nice to look at. You may have to warm the putty up if you are in a cold climate or else the putty will tear but takes seconds to fix and isn't really an issue.

Fun for the fam
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had no trouble with the putty drying out like other reviewers. It’s enough that my two kids and I each have a small handful to play with. Color change is super fun- we race to get to pink!

Yes, when you open it, it looks like a mess. But you just pull out the bulk of it and use it to grip/grab the rest of the putty that may be misplaced, even outside the lid. Yes, may seem small, but it’s a giant case for some reason compared to what it used to be. I haven’t encountered any of the dryness others have mentioned, and I have 10 of them over the years.

#1 putty - never disappoints!
Hands down best putty. Doesn’t dry out. Would knock off half a star for the difficult lids.

Disappointing.
Yikes. After muscling the lid off, which proved nearly impossible, we’re left with disappointment and regret 😣

Junk with barely any in there!
Junk!!!! It takes forever to open and there is probably 1/4 teaspoon of goo in the 2.1 oz container. Not worth $10 by any means. Not worth the sale price either. They need better packaging and quality control on how much putty goes in the container.
