DICE BOMB is a great trick! It is very fast, very visual and gets great reactions. It also teaches some key magic skills if you want the audience to be able to inspect everything at the end. Whether you use the provided patter or not, if you follow the overall method in the video, no one will notice the clean up.

A great trick for learning just how bold a magician can be in making a move, and how powerful a bit of misdirection really is.

The prop quality is good. The video instruction is good, with a couple of alternate presentations if you don't want to use the word "bomb." A little more time spent explaining and demonstrating the clean-up step would have been beneficial, but replaying that part of the video several times does make it clear.

This was better than expected. Really a fun trick to perform!

Overview

Dice Bomb is another release by Apprentice Magic which is geared towards the beginning magician. All the tricks in this series are simple, classic magic tricks that many experienced magicians have long been acquainted with. Once manufactured in brass and exotic woods, these classics are more seen nowadays in the plastic versions like the one offered here. Despite the materials the trick is made of, the effect is the same. The effect relies more on the presentation than the object, and that’s where the magic lies.

Effect

The original effect is attributed to Hiroshi Sawa. Dice Bomb is an unusual effect where a large die is sitting in a cylindrical capsule with a black cap. The performer explains that it is a dice bomb and it can be dangerous. They don’t know what a dice bomb is? He shakes the cylinder and the large die now explodes into eight tiny dice.

Method

Naturally the prop does all the work for you, which leaves you nothing but to focus on the delivery. Unless you know the secret behind the method, it is extremely hard to re-engineer. Don’t be fooled by the low cost of this product, it works just as good as the ones made out of more expensive materials.

Product Quality

The props are made of plastic but that shouldn’t deter someone from giving this a go. The “trick” is the ability to weave a good tale. In other cheap versions of this trick you would probably get typed instructions on a miniscule piece of paper that you may be able to understand. With Dice Bomb you will not only get the props but a downloadable video instruction featuring Javier Fuenmayor, Murphy’s Magic new spokesperson. Javier brings this trick to a new level. Ever excited and well spoken, Javier teaches you the routine and a premise to hang it on. Filmed on a beautiful set in High Definition, Javier brings what is needed most in magic; enthusiasm. This is well worth the purchase just to watch Javier.

Ad Copy Integrity

The product delivers all that is posted. Apprentice Magic has the right idea which is bringing back tired and worn out classics and revitalizing them and breathing new life in to this old friends.

Overview

Dice Bomb is part of Murphy's Magic Apprentice line of tricks for beginners. Don't be fooled by the name because this is a great trick for anyone to perform, not just novices.

Of course the trick is incredibly easy to learn and perform. This tricks is a classic and I have had a Tenyo version of this trick for years.

Anyone will love this trick and all lay people will be fooled after they see a single large die isolated in a clear container turn into 8 mini dice with just a shake.

Almost everything can be handed out for inspection immediately and with some tiny ditching you can hand everything out.

Effect

As stated above, an oversized die in a clear container is shaken and it turns into 8 mini dice.

Method

The method relies upon some earthly secrets and when you buy this trick for less than $10 bucks you will learn it and smile.

Product Quality

The quality of this trick is excellent and it only costs $8.95. You also get a downloadable 6 minute instructional video that is taught by Javier Fuenmayor. The instructions are great because he demos the trick and teaches it without any delay and gives all the right tips about angles and patter.

Ad Copy Integrity

The ad copy follows and it is all good by me.
