I think maybe it only looks like all the sides are solved because the spectator can only see the top row of the other sides due to the viewing angle of the box.

I must admit... the ending fooled me. All 5 sides are seen to be solved! How could that possibly happen!? I'm stumped.

UNLESS the full performance isn't quite a full performance and it is cut to leave out a switch of the box...

i hate to said this, but after I re-watch the full performace video and that half second cut I don't like it.

My review:

You Get a "Complete SET" the cube impossible, and make your job done.

is just like the Bad Land Bod with mini cube inside, if you know Bad Land Bod you know how is work. but I like it. and in the video Ryota & Cegchi also teach the hand free version.

here is the video(only one take for first try) for the hand free version. I sure I can do better with more practice.

All sides the spectator sees are solved.

My review coming shortly.

First, the demo does not show everything. There is something you have to do before you can solve the cube. This is not shown and I would say misleading. Though, the offbeat moment while the specs are looking at the box trying to flip the cube themselves allows you time to get everything ready to do the dirty work before you can solve the cube. If you are used to performing a lot and are a confident performer then this will not bother you.

As far as the changes, it is a little knacky. For some reason Badlands Bob was easier for me to operate. Though, hopefully after putting more practice time in I can get this as smooth as Badlands Bob. The only other issue I have is getting the solved red side to appear first. Right now, most of the time the red doesn't appear first and if you follow the video, before solving the cube there is a progression of red squares gathering. So naturally when you solve the cube you would like the red side to appear first.

The boxes are plastic with an acrylic cover glued to the box. In the video he mentions that if the cover comes off you have to use plastic model glue to put it back on, regular superglue will cause the acrylic to fog. Also, the acrylic cover will scratch so handle accordingly.

Do I like it? I think so. Especially "IF" I can get the change along with the red to appear first down smoothly, I would perform this. I think it would be a very cool lead in to other cube magic.

Very clever adaptation of Badlands Bob. I have to hand it to these boys they did a great job on this. Nicely packaged and well explained.
