Review from Magic Cafe
“Well the BIG day finally got here! You know this kind of feeling does NOT come along often enough. I have what I consider to be some very fine effects. I have some effects that I was not sure how they worked when I bought them and then was happy to see how they worked and what they looked like when they arrived. I’ve had some that showed up and I thought “Well that does not look like the picture at all.” What I’m saying is I, like most of us, have run the full circle of “feelings” from “thrilled” to “oh brother”. Now I know, as I have shared with everyone, I was already feeling really good and pumped about this. And I fully understand how some may believe there may be a little “bias” in this review—but I assure you there is none at all. So with that stated let me begin my review:
1) The Mighty Mini Chameleon Chest is an absolute thing of beauty! The workmanship is without doubt second to none. The hinges are wonderfully recessed (sp?) and the wood has a good solid feel to it. The finish is gorgeous! The velvet covered inside is beautifully done and the lock works nice and smooth.
2) The instructions are written in a nice easy to follow manner (nothing new to Larrys’ style of explaining his effects). There are some nice handling tips he gives and a nice Bonus Effect. I personally will use the first routine he covers in the instructions which I knew about from Larry’s Stunners Plus book. The name of the effect in his book is called “Number Necromancy”. All the routines are well thought out and appear to be very entertaining.
3) The Chest itself works very smoothly. Like all magic/mentalism props the more you work with it the more you will know how to properly cover the areas that are important to you and move along in a natural manner. The Chest makes this very easy to achieve.
With that said I do have one gripe. Every time I have to spell CHAMELEON I always have to recheck the spelling! But even with the gripe I still rate this effect as a 10 out of 10. Plus with only 50 made it will naturally be a piece of mentalism that will feel special just to have (I speak now from a collectors point of view).
Larry and Tony did a great job and I thank them very much. This is one mentalist effect I’m very proud to own. I absolutely HIGHLY recommend this.”
