Double posters should be shot!
No really!! |

The refill for the Tarantula thread is the spider spooler...same as spider pen. The battery is a button cell type, common for watches and other items. Easy to get.
As far as what is coming with it. Not sure yet. We don't have the actual packaging, I would assume one spooler and battery.

Is there any performance capabilities difference between the Tarantula and the Pro pen or is it just one is plastic and the other is mental with more of an up market look. I'm led to believe the Pro has a remote control unit with it

Well, I don't have the complete details on the spider pen pro but this is what I have heard.
the spider pen pro will be made much better then the first version. It will be programable, you can get some good distance away from the floating object. I think the first video link posted here is showing him using the spider pen pro. Of course the price is a big difference, MSRP $250.00. The Tarantula will be more for in your hands, on a table and on the floor by your feet. As soon as we get more info on the pro I will post it for sure.

Ah.. no wonder it is that cheap. I am confused with the two products. USD250 for spider pen made much more sense and looking forward for it. Thanks to clarify fellows.
For Tarantula, its too late, I already bought it... hopes that it is good and worth the money. I also have J.Kennedy's electronic reel. I do not use it very often because you need to press the button for the retracement and to create tension.... Hopes that Tarantula has more advance features than just a electronic reel?? |

I have the Tarantula. I bought it at the IBM-SAM convention.
IT IS NOT THE SPIDER PEN PRO. IT IS NOT A PEN AT ALL. It is a very clever device that spools thread, but allows you to apparently show your hands empty at any time. If you think it's a pen, then you guys have been fooled better than anyone else.

I think the Tarantula appeals more to me than the pen. I wonder about the size of it ( smaller than John Kennedy's Stealth retractor?).

How messy can this effect get with ITR running around all over the place?
If I speak forth, many a mind will shatter,
And if I write, many a pen will break. .....and when I consider my own self, lo, I find it coarser than clay! |

OK, I am confused here???
Spider pen Pro the thingy here, or is the Tarantula the watch? Or is it a totally different device? And How much for Tarantula??? $250?? I know my buddy bought a SSP at a convention about 10-12 months ago for $80 bucks from Masika himself, and the thing broke from the ring connecting the pen, he said Masika had to go back to the drawing board. Now, what is what here? is the Tarantula the Watch??? Totally new device??? Thanks!

I have seen other tricks that rely heavily on the so called "Fearson" hook. Is this a classic yet or they are friends of him? Is it "legal" or "ethic" to use a technique created by other magician to promote your own product or trick?
I don't ask this to kick Yigal's work, wich I'm sure is a great device for IT. Im asking to understand and because I'm in a similar position with a trick of mine. If any of the greats can answer this dilemma... I'd be grateful |
