They are sent to me, in exchange for an honest review, so I will talk a little about the story, instead of going on and on about the mistakes made in these.

Henry the Hedgehog and Clive the Tabby Cat love to get together to pop balloons. They do this all the time, so they have now popped over 200. However, Pippi the Poodle--who seems like a real spoilsport, just because he is not in on the fun--gets annoyed, and wants to trick them, hoping they will stop popping balloons forever. So, he rigs up a patriot balloon filled with lots of tiny water balloons to splash them as they pop. This, however, does that hinder the duo's love of popping balloons. It only makes it where they no longer do it around Pippi.
