Genuine Fred DOOMED Crystal Skull Shotglass - 2.5 oz Hand Blown Borosilicate Glass for Whiskey and Tequila - Unique Double Walled Design Novelty Barware for Parties and Home Bars

These are an excellent gimmick and fun gift. Quite functional and great for doing a shot with entertainment value. PROS: - Look just as cool in person if not better, definitely an unmistakable skull shape - Lightweight and easy to filll - Makes for a fun moment , great when used to signify a "special" drink or toast - Great for lovers of Skull designs and collectors of unique drinkware - Great price for what you get! As far as CONS go, I'm listing these but this is being *really picky* and MINOR / TRIVIAL stuff in my opinion: - The glass is thin and therefore these are delicate. (Handle with care and you'll be fine.) - If you put them in the dishwasher naturally the underside fills up with water because its hollow. (just rinse them out good and wipe before putting in cabinet). Simply put - fun, inexpensive, collectible, celebratory, cool item for many reasons / occasions.

Very good quality. We got this for a dirty Santa gift and I'm sure it will meet the task very well. Recently there were customers who were questioning what Fred is made out of and how many glasses in the package. There is one 2 oz. shot glass and the following describes what it is made out of: Fred is actually a very specialized glass called borosilicate glass containing specialized components. In it's laboratory usage it contains around 80% silica, 13% boric oxide, 4% sodium oxide and around 3% aluminum oxide. You may possibly recognize one of it's famous brand names, Pyrex. This particular specimen is lighter than Pyrex and obviously has contents varied by its manufacturer. The box says is manufactured in China and their website says it is hand blown. Borosilicate glass is resistant to shattering and normally breaks in large segments or simply cracks on impact. It is also resistant to chemical corrosion and extreme temperatures which is why it is used in laboratory work as well as kitchen containers. The inventor of borosilicate glass was a German glassmaker named Otto Schott. He was prominent in the 19th century and succeeded in refining his invention around 1883 creating the Duran brand. Later around 1915 Corning Glassworks came out with the brand Pyrex for it's famous line of kitchen glassware. Regardless of all this technical data you will find Fred looking you straight in the eye when you imbibe in your 2 oz. shot. Shortly after you will find all this information totally oblivious to your current circumstances. Here! Here!

I decided to get this one for my son. He's starting a shotglass collection so I thought this one would be perfect. The shotglass "is" glass, not plastic/acrylic. The glass skull sits inside a round glass enclosure, and looks like it's floating. The whole shotglass itself as approx 2 3/4" hi by 8 5/8" round. Sounds huge but it really isn't. The skull itself is quite large and very impressive. The skull design is very well defined and no matter what liquid you put in it, it looks great. My husband already has his collection (over 125 shot glasses) so I got him one too. He's not the skull type of guy but he really beamed when he saw this one. It is so unique. He was extremely pleased and you will be too when you get yours. The skull also holds 2 ozs of whatever. Here's to ya!!!

First of all, you really need to check out the details and look up info on a product before you buy it. I got it for sipping rum on the rocks, and it works great for that. But if you think that it's a genuine shot glass, you need your head examined. A shot glass is one ounce, give or take. Not much more or less. This glass is clearly described as being 2.5 ounces. That's 250% more than a single shot. Now that you understand that, there's no need to complain about it once you buy it. Sure, they need to change the name from "shot glass" to something more accurate, but in the end, knowledge is still on our side with this product. Next, it is hollow on the bottom and inside the bottom where the outside of the skull is. It's obvious in the photos, it's described as such in many reviews. If you look, you'll see it. If you order it and open the box and go "OMG! It's hollow on the bottom!", then it's a lack of attention and pure ignorance on your part. There's a description here, there are reviews here, and Google is your friend. It's painfully clear in the pictures that the top is thick-rimmed and pretty wide. Obviously not for throwing back shots of Jagermeister. And once again, the seller and/or producer needs to change their description from "shot glass" to "sipping glass", but it's still pretty obvious from the pictures and description what this glass is or isn't used for. Last, and fairly important to me, is the detail. This is what made me give four stars rather than five. Everything else was exactly what I expected except for the detail in the skull. The detail just isn't what you see in the picture. It's too smooth and the lines just aren't that tight compared to what you see in the product pictures. However, it still looks good and I can't complain too much. So, in conclusion, if you get any surprises after ordering this or are disappointed, it is due to your lack of attention. Why pay good money for something if you're not going to look into it first? It's a big glass, it's more than a shot, it's hollow, the glass is thin... These are all details that are readily available, and yet people still complain about them after they buy it. Read, pay attention, and soak it all up before you whip out your card. If you're looking for a nice little glass for sipping something neat or on the rocks, this just might do it. Hey, you could always use a straw if the rim is too much for you. ;)

My brother in law has a collection of shot glasses.. this was one that he really liked... good job Amazon

Well made and aesthetically, very cool looking. My only concern is the edges around the bottom of the glass is a bit thin and fragile, so I will have to take care when placing it down on a hard surface. Happy with my purchase regardless.

The box looks like it was sanded, i bought it as a last minute gift and now i don't know how i’m gonna pack it and wrap it properly without looking like it was used :/ seems useless at this point.

Good job

El diseño es detallado y de buena calidad, mejor de lo que esperaba. Luce muy bien, será un gran regalo. Tiene buen tamaño como para un caballito de tequila o para coñac. El material es un vidrio ligero pero no particularmente frágil aunque se recibe un golpe fuerte seguro se lastimará.

ショットグラスにしては大きめです。 作りはしっかりしています。

Buen trabajo, solo que el vidrio es bastante fragil
