What about replacement dice if one is lost, stolen or defective ... ?
Is immediate replacement of each colour guaranteed and if so, what are the costs ? Can three white, blue or red cubes also be used - two of which are inconspicuously marked ? |

I can see someone offering a similar version for way cheaper like go-cube/go-dice. It’s always nice when I can save money. However, at this moment, I’m ok having spent 300$ for what I got. As soon as they make a smart watch compatible peek, I think it’s make others happy. It’s simple now and I like it that way. |

Regarding getting vibrations from 3 different dice, it can be matter of using a tilt switches unit which allows you to tilt your hand secretly to give you reading from a given dice (for example horizontal is the red dice,left tilt is for the white and right tilt is for the blue one) . But personally I prefer the visual display because it is instant and silent .

I am wondering how durable the dice are. Imagine spectators rolling the dice off the table unto a hard floor. How durable is the inside?

IMO, the added vibration option will be a good and useful feature. It's an important requirement. However vibration option will be more practical and effective for just ONE die and not for all three Dice.
Also IMO, with a slight modification to the existing visual display unit, the one Die vibration feature can be easily incorporated in the same visual indication module with a tiny/micro selector switch. No need to have a separate vibration/thumper unit. Are we looking forward to Ver2.0 in the offering? ![]() ![]() ![]() Just MY thoughts please. ![]()

I won’t be surprised if Murphy’s introduces additional Anverdi items in the future. Conversely, I will be surprised if Murphy’s does not release a vibration/thumper unit for their Mental Dice.

Of ever we need a reminder that the mental state of consumerism is alive and well in magicians, just read this thread...
Out two days or so and already a load of magicians want more, more, more...thumper, 2.0, 3.0... Whatever happened to enjoying what you have right now and coming up with routines and presentations other than roll a die, I know the number, thanks very much... The constant fever of buying the next thing...it'll consume everything... Enjoy what you have right now...

Quote: Electric based tricks like Talking Skull, Spirit Bell, Death Hand of Monte Christo, Skull Calgiostro dates back to the 19th century. For example, the Austrian August Böhm, aka Chevalier Gustav Agoston (1826-1897), presented these tricks at the latest 1882 in his shows.
On Dec 12, 2019, Rainer - ParaLabs wrote: At the Internation MZvD Magic Convention in September 1938 in Frankfort-on-Main Herbert-Martin Paufler referred over the new possibilities of radio-controlled tricks (!). In Magie November 1938, he published "Troll, der Wunderschädel (Troll - the miraculous skull)” with remote controll. In 1974 he published any of his different mental dice story creations in all (!) details in the East German magic magazine Zauberkunst. The electronic logic theory he credited to his friend the Czech Zdenék Stáhlavs of Prague. Paufler could see the result of up to 15 m aways. He mostly didn't announce the result; the die points were projected into a display looking like a moon or a Pharao. Paufler was (and still is) well known in the informed international magicians' community since the 1960s. I don't have the feeling that anyone in that thread is really interested in the magic history here. Stinginess is horny!

On Dec 12, 2019, ArtIn wrote: Now that it is quite clear that Tony Anverdi is not the original creator of an electronic dice used for magic/mentalism purpose, we can now happily put this issue to rest. OK, to the best of my knowledge and understanding, the thought of creating a completely sealed miniature (16mm size) electronic Dice with a built-in rechargeable battery was first brought to us by Craig Filicetti of Promystic. For quite some time nobody could beat the fully sealed dice with a built-in rechargeable battery by Promystic. Then Marc Antoine brought to us the 3 Dice version which could read the 3 dice simultaneously on a 3 digit digital readout. However, IMO, Marc Antoine's fully sealed dice is a copy of Craig's idea. Now comes the 3 Dice version from Murphy's with a name stamp of Anverdi. By now we all know that this version is a copy of Promystic and DodyMagic. Won't it be prudent for us to ask Murphy's as to why Promystic and DodyMagic were not credited? Rather, on the contrary, Paw from Murphy's was insisting that others should credit Anverdi - I ask for WHAT? IMO such hypocrisy from a giant distributor of magic props (Murphy's) must not be taken for granted. Rather I feel that Promystic and DodyMagic don't only deserve to be credited but they both need to be suitably compensated by Murphy's Magic for their intellectual creations. Just my thoughts please. ![]()
