Very curious whether the quality is as good as the imagery indicates. The price is right, but like most of us, I loathe shoddy workmanship or craftsmanship that presents beautifully, only to begin falling apart after a few performances.

Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

I have no idea how this works.
But I noticed that in the trailer and the pictures there are not a lot of billets inside the box. How many billets can be put inside the box so the switch or whatever it is still works? Kind regards, Axel |

If the switch is taking place when the box is being shook (at 40 secs on the trailer), it does look very clean and can’t spot the switch happening. I just hope in the trailer it is actually being switched and that’s how it looks, rather than they just simulating shaking it (already switched as something else goes on during the shaking which won’t look as clean as in the trailer)

Since the box front is transparent I think it's pretty safe to assume that the switching is occurring while they're shaking the box.

Is it "safe" for a member of the audience to remove the (forced) billet? I notice the performer removes the billet in the video and there's no mention in the product highlights/description that the audience member does the removing...

Curious how this method differs from David Regal's fantastic CRYSTAL BILLET BOX? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ds5rAizhJKI&feature=youtu.be

The effect reminds me of the apearing lion in

This is a very good version. Very clean and normal looking box. If I was to get a switching box, this is what I'd go for.
Curious too how many billets it can hold comfortably. I assume a spectator can reach in and pull out one of the forced billets. |

I’m just wondering if when the shaking is happening, the switch looks as clean as it does in the trailer. Sometimes with Similar switch box’s there is a subtle flash something has happened (depending on the gimmick). With the trailer its spotless and even watching close you cannot see anything. Im just hoping the switch looks like this and the trailer is not showing the shaking before or even after the switch making it look cleaner than it really is.
Looking forward to real world reviews and the dealers opinion of it when they get it in. |

Looks nice quality but can it switch back like the TBC Box 2 by Luca Volpe, Paul McCaig and Alan Wong.

I know how the box works, but does the switch really happen without being noticed by the audience?
