Looks like a much simplified version of the super mario mosaic routine. Very nice. Looks like mosaic is a picture vs a bunch of loose cubes so should make transport/setup easier. Would be nice if it came with more than one final reveal.

Wow, that is a lot more expensive than Perfect Square.

Perfect Square Super Mario is $990. This is less than half of that.

So maybe 1 out of 50 people here actually do stage magic, and maybe 1 out of 25 of them will buy this.
Maybe. I'd pick Che Guevara myself. He's my hero. But wait!

And I know that Eric does do stage magic.
I'm just saying that this is a very specialized product that's not for everyone here, including me. But I'd still want to pick Che Guevara.

Agree this is prob not for everyone. Love the visual. I just hate dragging around bigger props. Trying to downsize and keep my show to one case size. But given the price, this might be worth adding for special occasions.

So basically the method is, f*rce Albert Einstein's name, take your spec-mixed cube and sw*tch in a cube that is either pre-m*de (another trick where you don't need to be able to solve a cube, once again) or easily gotten into, stick that into a frame with a missing cube and see that the resulting pattern fits right into Albert Einstein's mug, and then see that the spec-mixed cube matches another mixed cube that you have.
God, it must be tough to carry 300 Rubik's cubes with you to your shows. At about 2 ounces a cube, 300 cubes (plus the frame and carrying case) must weigh at least 50 pounds. But wait!- I'll bet that the frame and cubes just APPEARS to be 299 cubes plus the missing cube, and it's something light-weight, like printed paper on cardboard. This is all just speculation on my part, you understand, since I don't own it. Yet, that is. Please Gee Magic, do it with Che Guevara's famous mug instead of Einstein's. After all, he was a well known physician, and the fact that he was personally responsible for the deaths of hundreds of innocent people is just an incidental triviality. Do that and Eric and I will definitely buy it!

My apologies- after watching the video again, I see that it's only 100 Rubik's cubes, and not 300.
I don't know where I got 300 from.

So I've learned quite a bit more about this and, so far, like what I see.
Some clever handling ideas and the props are more substantial than what has been suggested. I do not do any Cube work, and would be quite comfortable with the required handling, even for the (slightly) more advanced 'signed' cube handling option. This just might get a shot at the lineup! e |

So the cubes are not just printed pieces, Eric?
Interesting. When the signed cube is inserted into the grid of cubes, the handling looks very suspicious to me. The entire cube is hidden behind his hand. But I know that I'm just thinking like a magician.

Can the matching effect be done before you put it in the picture?

But then shipping costs have gone up for everyone. Anyway, the effect and routine look great. Are you planning to pursue a Murphy’s distribution deal, or planning to work with any U.S. dealers?

Here's a tip: if you order this from the USA, do not change the Gee Magic site settings to dollars. Buy it in Euros. The conversion rate on the site will charge $370.11 not including shipping. If you let Paypal or your credit card do the conversion, it will be closer to $350.
