I wish they would put out a description and performance video before all their releases come out. I don't like when they just drop a trick and you have a small window of time to decide before it sells out. Maybe I just miss the information prior to release. I don't get any pre-release emails. Only an email when the trick is released.
Either way, I usually miss the initial sale and end up getting them second-hand.

Despite the high price, especially after the conversion from dollar to euro, I ordered a copy.
Not only the euro sucks, also the English pound…

Did no one know the exact release day and did not post it here ?
Only by chance I looked in my mails and saw the not expected mail
350 USD does not trigger a leap of joy at the current exchange rate
I like quite well this small Mystery tower with his new magic
Now all we need is a demo video.

It is really small, see the card for comparison…
The mechanism is very refined and totally noiseless.
The mechanism really is something totally different …
It is a gem, and it HAS a gem on the block: a zirconia
PS Already sold out at Dynamitemagic

Sounds nice, Rob. It was smaller than I had anticipated, though. Not a lot of wood for the money.
It may well end up being something worth recreating, we'll see. I'm intrigued by your comment about the mechanism.

The reason I passed is first of all the price but certainly not less important the 'kind of trick'. I already own so many block on/of rod effects ... . And if you're wondering, Mikame's Final Penetration remains my number one for many reasons. It DOES require some practice which is not the case with this one I believe.
And my second one is probably MW's previous trick which I absolutely adore ... . Which sets it apart is it can be examined before and after. IS this possible with this trick?
If I would have had the funds I would not have hesitated and had bought one.

I can understand that with the many versions that exist, for such kind of trick but in this case
it is a different and unique variant than the known ones. Some practice is also necessary here
so that everything goes smoothly over the stage Price: " Not a lot of wood for the money "
I'll admit I'm much less impressed now that I have seen a performance. It is way too obvious what happens, and such a mechanism really isn't difficult to construct. I think that even lay people will guess the modus operandi, and when they can't be allowed to see it all around (and much less inspect), that will just confirm their guess.

I think Olafs presentation is much cleaner and hides what needs to be done perfectly.
