I noticed people have complained about the price....$1.50 for tattoos and $1.50 for the handling...which seems fair enough but as I wanted this little set of tattoos to accompany a set of pirate books for my grandson and I wasn't willing to go out and hunt for them...this was worth it.
He loved the tattoos, lots of detail & very colorful, seem to be very long lasting. It's true there are a lot of tattoos (I think there were 8) that was ok, too. I mean how many tattoos do we need. I think they were the perfect accompaniment to "How I Became a Pirate" and "Pirates Don't Change Diapers"...at least I know my grandson (age 3 1/2) was thrilled and his Grammy had fun. They arrived quickly and were a big hit.

My young son was thrilled to have tattoos just like a real pirate. These are easy to use and remove. I great find!

There are only few tatoos so in one week they are gone, it could be better if there were more so they can share with brothers or friends. the alternative is to buy like 4 or 5 of these so the kid doesn't get upset when they are gone to quick. Also with one bath they are gone, so they don't last enough like other tatoos (2 TO 5 DAYS).

I'd buy again as a gift for a young kid obsessed with pirates. However, I never actually had any hands-on time with the tattoos. The tattoos reminded me of my favorite Cracker Jack prize.

I got these for my granddaughter because she has been getting tattoos in her play class. These are very good quality. Lots of detail and the colors are bright and clear. But there are only a few of them. I would have liked a lot more even if for a higher price.

She wasn't that interested in them. I think it might have been because they were all boys. No girl pirates.

07/31/10 Update: She wasn't that interested the day she got them, but she got a lot of other stuff that day. Since, she asks to put one on nearly every day and goes around saying "Arrgghh..." is a growly voice. I am going to try and upgrade this to 4 stars if Amazon will let me. It would get 5 if there were more in the book. The tattoos look sharp and stay on well.

I don't know how well they work, if they're a miracle, they're too expensive for the quantity. When I opened it, I thought they'd forgotten to send the tatoos.
10 for 3.50 makes this the ultimate "skimpy product".

These are cute tatoos for those who love pirates, however, the retail price is $1.50 and Amazon's price is MORE THAN DOUBLE. I have never paid OVER the retail price for an item at Amazon. I was shocked. There are only a handful of tatoos, and for 1.50 I wouldn't mind, but to charge 3.50 for an item that sells anywhere else for 1.50 is criminal. Find it at a local drugstore and save your $.

While my 3 year old son liked th tattos you'd think that a few more could be supplied. I think there were something akin to 8-10 total. A few more skull and cross bone flags would be nice.

The tattoos did seem to transfer well but didn't last longer or less than most other temporary tattoos.

I just put the first tattoo on my grandchild this morning. It went on easily and the colors are bright. Worth the $$$ and my boy is showing it off to everyone---he is 2.

My son loved it....That should be the only criteria.......But, it was also quiet easy to help him put them on as well......
