Magic Review - The Music Box by Colin Underwood & TCC Magic
David from Magic Orthodoxy delivers a thorough review of TCC Magic's "The Music Box," a fresh take on the classic ring box routine. He received a review copy and shares his insights, noting that his "Inner Circle" members got a sneak peek. The Music Box, priced at $75, includes the gimmicked box, a red mesh bag, and rubber bands, requiring only a spectator's ring as an additional prop. The 14-minute tutorial is deemed sufficient for intermediate to experienced magicians. The trick involves borrowing a ring, seemingly burning it with flash paper, and then revealing it inside the music box, which plays the *Harry Potter* theme when wound. David suggests creative presentation options like using a card box instead of flash paper and explores alternative vanish methods like a French drop. He highlights the prop's deceptive appearance, its suitability for stage or table magic, and its forgiving angles. Overall, David is highly enthusiastic about "The Music Box," praising its ease of use, deceptive nature, and the fact that it's a working music box, making it a "great alternative" to traditional ring box routines. He encourages viewers to join his "Inner Circle" for exclusive content.
