The "Shell" Game by Maibro and TCC Magic Review (Special DISCOUNT)
This video is a review by professional magician Scott Perry of EverythingMagicPro, focusing on Maibro's "The Shell" Game, presented by TCC Magic. Scott highlights this as a modern iteration of the classic three-shell game, aiming to make it more accessible and engaging for both beginners and experienced performers. He emphasizes that while the core concept is old, the design and materials offer unique advantages. The set is currently available at a discounted price (from $60 to $49) for a limited time (until September 28th, 2024), and a 15% discount is offered with the code "EVERYTHINGMAGICPRO" at TCC Magic. Scott briefly discusses the historical context of the three-shell game, tracing its roots as a classic street con that has evolved over time. The standout feature of Maibro's "The Shell" Game is its design inspired by turtle shells, crafted from solid brass with an antique finish. Scott praises the quality and weight of the shells, noting that the unique lip design facilitates certain sleights and displays, offering greater deception than traditional shell designs. The set includes five yellow silicone "peas" and three red cotton "peas," chosen for their differing compression ratios and friction, enabling color-change effects. The shells are compact and easily portable, fitting comfortably in pockets, and the design allows for near-360-degree angles. Scott shares a creative idea to enhance the routine: applying Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle-inspired sashes to the shells. Overall, Scott recommends Maibro's "The Shell" Game, particularly for those new to the three-shell game, believing the design makes it more approachable and offers unique performance opportunities.
