On one of my usual bank holiday strolls around the net of the mind, I came across this over at lybrary.com...

http://www.lybrary.com/rubix-square-p-11606.html

Anyone care to offer their opinions in a review-ish format on this. This looks incredible, as I have an effect involving the rubiks cube in my act...this might well be the proverbial olive in the belly button of a beautiful woman!

Cheers guys

Haven't got it, but from reading it, it looks like one of those things which is a simple trick dressed up very niceley with great presentation. I have thought of several ways of doing it already, but none of them are important. The effect is very interesting and has a nice kick at the end- a very nice way of involving a classic mentalism effect into a very interesting theme. I get the impression, the most any proffesionals are going to get from this are all from reading the origionality of the effect.

It sounds very much like a good old fashioned Number Square routine dressed up and presented from a different angle. Nothing wrong with that at all!

Yeah, the number square is the thing which excited me! I can do these in the blink of an eye, but I've never had the call to perform a magic square at gigs...
This presentation may well solve this!

However, does spending $45 justify this I wonder. The presentation has already been given in the blurb...I wonder what more it can offer.

I'm hoping (with little hope) that it may give me some ground breaking method in regards to the re-creation of the cube and not just some s***ch etc.

I'll give it a few more days just in case anyone does own this and can comment, if not...I may have to spring for this!hummm...Now I know why I don't like bank holidays! bah humbug!

yeah, like I said, it's already given you a lovely effect, anyone with a basic knowledge in magic and mentalism could replicate that, but it's the origionality of the effect that counts.

I just picked this up. What a waste of money. The routine is convoluted, overpriced, and simply doesn't work! Stay far away from this one.
