IMAGE3D Custom Viewfinder Reel Plus RetroViewer - for Kids, & Adults, Classic Toys, Slide Viewer, Retro, Vintage, May Work in Old Toys (Red)

Such a thoughtful gif. It is not a scam. After you buy it and try to put in the pictures through their website it can be a bit laggy but over all the quality is really good. It is worth the money, and it is very sturdy.

My very first impression was how extremely lightweight it is. I don't know why I was expecting it to be heavy. Despite the weight it feels very durable. It comes with one demo reel that shows you what it can do and great ideas for uses for your viewer. It also comes with a gift card where you can make your own reel. I had a little difficulty creating the reel on my phone so I used a computer and it was much easier. Speaking of easy, creating your reel is very user friendly. If I can figure it out anyone can. My reel came in the mail very fast even with the free shipping option. Once it came in the mail I popped it in the viewer and it looked amazing. I cannot get over how crisp and bright the images look. The texts really pops with the 3D. I ordered a second reel and this one I created on my phone and it wasn't difficult with some patients. But the free shipping option was no longer there. But it was fine. I was given a coupon for signing up for the email newsletter. One of the best things about this item is that the old classic reels you have in your collection work great on this viewer. I'm so happy I got this and its exciting to save memories on reels and show family and friends. I'm probably going to order a reel for every fun adventure. My only criticism was the price but after having it here I feel like it was well worth it considering the gift card and coupon.

While a bit pricey and inconvenient having to order the reels separately this was a hit. I bought it as a birthday gift for a friend and she absolutely loved it.

This was so much fun and the interface for building the photo reel was extremely simple to use. Everything arrived quickly and was exactly as advertised, maybe even better. My husband is going to love it!

Super cool concept - a somewhat pricey but fun and unique customized gift. I made one for my brother and his wife of his proposal to her. The program that they use to edit and design your reel is simple and user friendly. It allows you to play with color, contrast, brightness and rotation as well as an option to add text (with varying fonts and sizes) to each frame). You are also given the option to add a photo that will go on the front of the reel you receive which is a nice touch. There were a couple things that were a bummer. One was that there are only 7 frames you are allowed to add photos to - the other 7 in the reel will just repeat the 7 you add. Its kind of a repetitive oddness when you click through. I wish for the price that they could at least include another 7 uploads. The other thing that was kind of eh was the shipping. It comes with free USPS ground, no tracking shipping - which is kind if scary if it gets lost. So, if you are paranoid like me it almost automatically makes you pay for the up charge of the $5 standard delivery. Made me a little frustrated - but I guess that's how they make their money! Besides that the experience so far has been great! Will update once I receive my reel! **UPDATE** Received my reel on time. Dropped this in the viewer to review - everything looked vivid and each photo seemed to pop. My bro and his wife were truly touched with the extra thought and uniqueness this gift was.

If you want a walk down memory lane and the ability to customize a gift for your 90s at heart person, this is it! So much fun and the quality is amazing!

Its awesome.

A bit pricey, but so worth the look on my husband's face as he went through the reel. He said it might be the best Valentine's gift he's ever gotten.

Muy buena calidad y rapidez. Para Mexico el problema es que para pagar el reel personalizado se necesita paypal y puede tardar un poco pero llega bien y sin problemas. Si tengo que mencionar que el cupon que incluye no cubre todo el costo del reel personalizado (fueron $2 USD de diferencia mas o menos)

Its an amazing idea... I bought it for a friend's 50th, and thought at first $70 was a bit steep, but it's a big one so worth it... BE WARNED, it is going to cost you WAY more... The viewfinder arrived quite quickly with a link to a website to create the reel and code to cover the cost of the reel. The website it easy to use - upload and arrange your photos... however, the postage on the reel that is advertised with the viewfinder is not free... after you make your reel and put in the code to cover the cost of the reel, it then cost me nearly $50 AU for postage of this tiny thin viewfinder insert... a complete scam when the viewfinder and reel were $70. It made the total cost nearly $120. The quality is quite flimsy too... I would not recommend this, it's a very expensive novelty.

Even though it came with a free reel - I had to pay so much in shipping that it defeats the purpose. I think it was around $35 usd in shipping just for one reel.

The box was broken when it arrived & there is no reel like advertised. It was pretty disappointing as the view finder was a gift.
