This looks interesting to me. I'm always on the look out for strong, examinable effects that aren't cards or coins.

It looks like it's been out a while but I can't find anything about it. Does anyone have it here?

Imagine being able to control a roll of the dice at the speed of sound. This is SONIC DICE. Here is a summary of the effect:

Step One - Five dice are placed into a transparent box at random and covered with a tube and shaken.

Step Two - When the tube is removed, all the dice in the box show the same number.

Step Three - Repeat the first two steps, but without any cover.

It becomes more and more unbelievable for the spectators. It also has the following features:

It can be carried in your pocket.

It can be examinable.

It can be repeated.


SONIC DICE comes with everything you need to perform this visual miracle.

This site has international shipping so I think you should be able to order in the US.

I don't understand what makes them 'sonic'.
I still recall the day I met Beaker from the Muppets. He said to me "Meep, meep, mee mee mee Meep!", and that has made all the difference.

Are they even shipping packages from Taiwan to the U.S.? According to their website, shipments to the U.S. are suspended.

The clear box definitely adds an interesting visual approach to the effect. Not sure how much better it is than Flash Dice but would like to hear more about it.

I managed to order it. When it comes in and I have time to work with it, I will post a review.

When is it okay to just copy a tenyo item and release as its own item

Do you have this? If not, how do you know it is the same?

IMO, there really is only one way to perform flash dice. The only difference between this and Tenyo's is the clear container used, the method has to be exactly the same.

And for $50.00! For a Flash Dice routine using a clear cover? IMO, way to much....

Animated Puppets, what makes these dice sonic is that they change faster than the speed of sound. Available at Penguin for $49.95

Had I known this would be available in the U.S. I wouldn't have ordered from Taiwan.

Is there a sonic boom? Smile

Is it possible to use only one dice and force the number in a clear way? (nice addition to Tom Stone kill/hug)
Or use all dices but force different numbers?

What's with the design decision to write "Hanson Chien Production Co." on the box? Kind of defeats the purpose of handing it out to examine when the spectator can immediately google and find the name of the effect.

Agreed! I hate it when magic commpanies put their names on the gimmicks. Why? Putting it on the box is good enough.

I'm just puzzled why anyone would spend $50.00 for this.
