What's everyone's opinion on these guys? Anyone have experience with their pedals?

I guess if that's what you're into, then whatever; I'd never own that stuff no matter how good it is for two reasons: I'm a Christian, and I'd rather have a pedal board that doesn't look like my demented 4 year old nephew did the graphics. Doesn't look like they do anything that isn't available elsewhere.
I'd have to agree on the names and graphics, not from any religious or political standpoint, I just find these things a bit too infantile. Trying too hard to be tough. I would not buy because of this, but that's just my grumpy old guy preferences shining through I guess.
As to the sound I have no clue but they probably produce much the same noise as other clones of the same type.

I'm really only interested in the Hail Satan Deluxe. Ideally I would have a Mountainking electronics Heavy for my fuzz, but the deluxe might replace my swollen pickle nicely.
Prices are reasonable and the paintjobs are nice but for me the combination of larger enclosure and side jacks make it a no go for my board. Would like to try the green muff however

Looks like they are doing generic clones of popular pedals in a gimmicky enclosure. I think fuzzrocious already nailed that with a much better sounding product with more options.
Why am I not surprised?
But this time, I have to agree with you.
sounds exactly like that based on included sound clips. also hail santa would be funnier.

If you didn't like the Blower Box you will love the Rat Tail. Speaking of which I finally sold that thing.
Sorry, I feel like I pawned my problem off on you.
Which isn't necessarily bad but now that we're buds I feel bad.
It's all good. I seriously thought I would love it as I am sure you did. Turns out. Boooooo. I didn't lose much on the deal. You owe me a beer.
I don't care for names and looks. What I need is one of my basses and my combo to determine if this pedal is what I'm looking for.
It's not that I mind the Satanic graphics...I just don't want locusts flying out of my pedalboard.
