Well, what do you think about them? Good, bad, or just plain stupid and kidish?

You listed 4 adjectives in that post, and 3 of them describe mini's perfectly. I bet you can guess which one doesn't.
mini's and EBB's are designed for younger children. In Japan, airsoft is a much bigger hobby, and it's socially acceptable for kids to get into it at a younger age. EBB's and mini's are designed for safe play among kids sneaking up on double digits. It's a totally different culture over there, so they probably don't have many "soccer moms" trying to put the kibash on replica and toy guns. So that's why EBB's and mini's don't really offer skirmish type performance. They're not designed for it.

i have i mini g3a3 and it was only 25 bux at a local hunting store so i picked it up just to mess around with. the thing is dead on when you shoot it and fun if you get one to just mess around with and have "mini" wars with yur friends but i would never use it to play at a plce like m40.

Id Have to agree with blagnaskin, minis are only fun when playing with other people who have minis or small springs also, but for playing somewere where people have full size AEG's your pretty much better off not going.

You know, people have been dis'n the minis and EBBs, but I actually think they are a blast to shoot! Sure, take them to a skirmish and you are dead meat, but they are great for shooting around in the house and at paper targets and stuff... good fun.

Locutus, nobody's been "dis'n" Minis and Ebb's. We are saying that they are ineffective for real squrmishes but good for mini wars & stuff like that. Blagnaskin & minimaster already said this.

MaxPayne, I have nothing else to say, I meant just in general all over the place since the minis and EBBs were released, not pointing out anyone here. In reality they are pretty crappy when compared to real airsoft guns, but they are still to a lot of fun to play with. So if they are purchased with that intention, they are fine.
