There are teardown videos on Youtube, but it’s super simple: just You can create new ones through an iPhone The purse comes with a bunch of built-in patterns and animations. World, your eyes should see a solid image. Taking pictures of a scanning LED display with the scanning camera of an iPhone doesn’t work very well. Barely.īut it’s all about the LED screen on the other side:
It’s piece of hard plastic that only looks the part. :-)Ī useless gizmo for only $6.16 where one part is worth more than the whole thing combined?Ĭalling this a purse is a stretch. All opinions and views contained are our own.The disassembly of a pretty trivial toy got a bit out of hand. So, if hindsight was possible when thinking about Christmas Lists, I would be encouraging Father Christmas to include the Pixel Purse in CM’s Christmas stocking.ĭisclosure: We received the Project Mc2 Pixel Purse for the purpose of this review. CM has spent hours creating designs and has enjoyed and engaged with those offering compliments on the bag. It’s understandable why this would be top of anyone’s Christmas list. Compare it to lots of game console related gifts, it is value for money.Īnd it is lots of fun, occupying spare time and creating impact when out and about. This should surely be weighed up with the amount of science and technology the item holds. And yes, that’s ok with my 8yo, but it would be good to have a variety of colourways.Īnd finally, I have to acknowledge the price point, currently retailing for around £49.99 it’s an expensive gift- especially for a purse which doesn’t hold much. This isn’t a particular problem for an 8 yo, but does defeat the design of any purse. The purse is quite bulky when you consider how little space there is to hold items. Limiting use for anyone without a phone, or without easy access to a phone.
There’s the already mentioned consideration of needing a phone connected to create maximum impact and fun. Most importantly to CM, the bag came with us to the Little Mix concert, completely complementing the look CM was aiming for with colour and style. It’s been on a train journey to London which has meant we’ve broken up a lot of time creating fun designs. The app itself is really straightforward to use, and fantastic for creating messages to communicate in addition to “Geek Is The New Cool!!”.ĬM has loved taking the bag everywhere with her, and it has drawn a lot of interest with its ‘wow’ LED factor. You can also take the time to create your own animation, with different colours, text and images for maximum effect. By using the purse in conjunction with the app you can make use of the additional pre-programmed designs. Without connecting the phone, there are a number of designs you can ‘play’ on your purse. The fun of the Project Mc2 Pixel Purse is in downloading the app to your phone and connecting it to the purse. Not used in its traditional sense, CM’s phone is solely used to play games. She does however prefer phones to the family tablet, and has a laptop for schoolwork. CM has a phone, which may seem wrong for an 8 yo. Now, this is one that makes me a little uneasy. Because the most important element to hold in this bag is the phone. In CM’s case there was also enough space for her lip gloss and small purse. The handbag has a ‘zip’ fastening, a release switch to open the back. element of this latest addition to Project Mc2 is in the pixels. On the top of so many lists to Father Christmas, CM is Christmas ready with the Project Mc2 Pixel Purse.īrightly coloured to cheer up any outfit, the clue as to the S.T.E.A.M. CM was fortunate to receive a special delivery from Project Mc2 and it came with us everywhere. Of all the exciting things which happened over the half-term break, there was one constant.
