Nique Tan Chats - The Music Box by Colin Underwood and TCC Magic

Nique Tan delivers a thoughtful review of 'The Music Box' by Colin Underwood and TCC Magic, a modern take on the classic Lepin Cot box. As a seasoned performer familiar with these types of props, Nique emphasizes that this isn't a tutorial but an assessment of the box's design and performance potential. The Music Box features a built-in music box playing 'Headwig's Theme,' an antique-style lock, and a velvet-lined interior. While the design is elegant, Nique points out the internal mechanism can obscure the object, which is why the box includes mesh bags for clearer reveals. He suggests using the box for parlor or stage performances, concealing it until the reveal and incorporating a delayed vanish to maximize the illusion. The setup is quick and easy, and replacements for the mesh bags are readily available. Overall, Nique believes 'The Music Box' can be a valuable addition to a magician's repertoire with careful planning and a well-crafted routine, and provides an affiliate link for viewers interested in purchasing it.
