Hi

I own the custom made Chalet's Doves to Rabbit with light flashes (aka Fism Flash)at the instant of the transformation...4 flaps fell...and rabbit...very visual and is custom fitted with Wellington base.

But recently, I saw the Proline Lion's Bride, where the dove is placed onto a perch in a cage, covered with a cloth, and changes into a rabbit; very unique, too, like the Fire Cage. It looks very, very nice, too, and the whole cage with the bunny inside can be brought apart.

Currently, I am using the Lion Head Big Rabbit...hence, I not too sure...should I get the Lion's Bride by Proline?

Hence, I need a poll here from fellow Café members....if you have a choice between these 2, which ONE will you use or prefer?

'Cause if I get the Lion's Bride, I might sell away the Chalet's version...I wish to only keep 1?

Thanks for the feedback,
JY

I have and use three of the Chalet models. My choice is made.

Speaking of this effect, is the space large enough to use a small cat/kitten instead of a rabbit?

The space isn't the problem. However, cats make poor loads. They like to dig and explore in the dark. They can also get noisy!

Maybe a Prozak pill would work before showtime

Joe, if you wanna sell it away...gimme a call first...maybe interested...Always wanted a big finish for my dove act. IS the load big enuf to fit maybe a duck??? Are you tlkin about the same one seen in Anthony Reed's Dove act on AGT???

PM me to discuss more bro...

I'm not sure if this is too late, Joe, but....

I think this is a question of personal taste. The magic effect is the same - the doves transform into a rabbit, but the way it looks is quite different.

On one, you get the visual of the walls falling down to reveal a rabbit. There is virtually no cover and you end up with nothing surrounding the rabbit. Attention remains on the box the entire time.

On the other, you get the visual of a cloth being whisked away to reveal a rabbit surrounded by a cage. The eye could follow the cloth depending on how you perform it and then return to the cage.

There's a different feel to them and I think both can be sold powerfully. In the end, your taste as a performer is what I think helps make this choice. As far as props go, I prefer the look of the Lion cage to the doves to rabbit cage, but in my personal performance opinion at this moment (without seeing you perform either) would be for the classic doves to rabbit, as the walls falling and the rabbit sitting on the table clean feels clean and strong. If I were making the decision I'd want to watch video of both being performed and see which I respond to most.
