Janet,
Will different colored clay be available, or an option? I collect and deal in vintage monster memorabilia and would love to mold a green Frankenstein, or possibly a white Mummy, etc. As you mentioned, the lurching action is perfect for this type of application. Please let me know. Thanks |

Hello Smartboysports
White will work fine. Only issue with the other colors is they have a dye that easily comes off on the hands. We will only be offering the red clay for replacements(which for some reason doesn't have the same dye issues). But this is an off the shelf brand available to the public for a few bucks per container. j |

The demo reminds me of those football games I had when I was a kid.
Start the game and it vibrates and all the players slide around. I was hoping he would take steps. oh well, James

Although this may sound 'stupid', but is it really necessary for him to be on top of the [black] bag when he 'walks'? I just think it may shout something out to the spectators...

Correct; the bag is required.

I asked and it was answered, yes, the bag can be examined. The clay container, clay, card, everything can be examined.

There is a big difference between "shown empty" and "examined". I hope the correct terminology is being used.

Hello Geo. The bag can be shown empty and examined by the spectator.

Many years ago I bought a bunch of Play-Dough for my nephew for Christmas. My sister inlaw yelled at me becuase she just knew it going to get ground into the rugs.
A perfect reason for letting him walk on the smooth bag that you brought. He won't mess up the table cloth, or place mats, or carpeting. And anyone who has played with Play-Dough knows how annoying it is to get dirt and hair and stuff in the Dough. The bag protects both parties.

This looks like a lot of fun, but I would be more inclined to give him a square head and call him "Little Robot".

I honestly think that a lay person (not a magi) would beleive that what he sees
is truly "magical". "Magical" means mysteriously enchanting or full of a mysterious quality that is enjoyable . Magicians are looking for "miracles" which is a perceptible interruption of the laws of nature, such that can be attempted to be explained by divine intervention, and is sometimes associated with a miracle worker. Some suggest that God may work with the laws of nature to perform what we perceive as miracles. A miracle is often considered a fortuitous event: compare with an Act of God. |

Now if you tore off little pieces of the business card and folded them up around his feet and drew two little wheels on the sides it would look like he was skating

Just a note, you cannot use Ultracinese to make littleman move like this.
I haven't seen Little man in person yet but I would imagine if you had Ultracinese and put littleman on his back he may scoot down your leg but why would you do that if you can have him walk and turn.

I can see this working well for my wedding gigs, especially if I can make a little woman as well and bring her into the act (nothing too obscene before you ask).
Could I prepare a little woman in advance, hide her under a cone of flash paper and have her revealed by her little man? My order is in whatever the answer. Well done with the video. I can't wait. Martin |

I Love it.
