A few days ago, my mom ordered a set of 120 Faber-Castell Polychromos colored pencils for me as a gift. Well, guess what - they arrived yesterday! I've already tested them out (and even did a new picture), and they're wonderful!!

I can honestly say that I like them more than my Prismacolors, and I have every color in those pencils too. While both products are amazing, Faber-Castell pencils seem to be made of even higher quality materials - which is saying a lot, because up to this point I hadn't found anything better than Prismacolors.

Let's say you're coloring an awesome picture, okay? It's going great, and then... OHNOES, you just smeared your finger on the page! If you're coloring with Prismacolors, you just smudged color all over the place and it isn't erasing too well. If you're using Faber-Castells, however, nothing happens - and if you ever do have to erase while you're coloring (like if you use a wrong color or something), Faber-Castell pencils erase quite well! Your picture is unaffected and it still looks just as colorful and nice. I also haven't broken any of the leads so far - which is something I always do with Prismacolors, and it's very irritating!! Gah! Err...

Anyway, I think that pretty much covers it! There are so many wonderful things I love about the Faber-Castell pencils, they make absolutely amazing white erasers that I would recommend to the whole world, and overall I give the pencils a five star rating! I have no complaints whatsoever, and I do not regret asking for them. If you're looking for amazing quality in colored pencils, I recommend these with all my heart.
