I read the reviews that complained about the brittle fill in these pencils and they are all true, if you accidentally drop one or in my case the cat knocked the box off the table you have pretty much useless color pencils and the leads have shattered and you cannot sharpen past them.

Loved the colors and blendability wish my pencils were still useable as ot seems the leads are broken about 3/16 inch apart.

My prismacolors were definitly a good investment. However, colored pencils break very easily when dropped and a few of the leads in mine were broken when I received them. I do not feel like they were packaged properly.

This review is from: Prismacolor 92807 Prismacolor Scholar Colored Woodcase Pencils, 48 Assorted Colors/Set (Office Product)

When I opened up my package of colored pencils I was so excited to use them. I started drawing with light wide strokes, the colors were vivid and blended together nicely.

Then as soon as I wanted to darken an area... the lead fell out...! I decided just to use another similar color. Everything was fine for like two minutes then the lead broke out of this pencil too! So I tried a third pencil with the same results.

I sharpened the three broken pencils and went back to drawing. Within minutes all three pencils were broken again.

I guess these pencils would be nice for very light drawing. I would not recommend these pencils.
