Comments

Ultra Tube is fast becoming the star of all the Tenyo tricks. It is a combination of it being a trick that is not that easy to find as well as a great trick to perform. If you are not one of the lucky people to have one, then it is for sure it is on your need/want list. The effect is stunning and it seems unexplainable.

My Rating [i]

Prop Notes

The tube construction is truly amazing. It seems so simple in design but it is very complicated and the gimmick is diabolical. The white paint does not seem to be as permanent as it should be so be careful, especially when cleaning that area.

Performance Notes

Ultra Tube is not very hard to do. You can pick this up 5 years later and perform it instantly. You can also perform it where the white die is changed to 8 tiny dice.

Package Notes

This trick was released in the Vintage Blister on Card package in English and Japanese.This is a package the opens like a book because the glue has failed. A sealed version is not better than one that opens like a book because the sealed version was glued, but that is not necessarily a bad thing because the ones that were glued were most likely glued back in the day by the distributor or dealer. You can tell this because the glued ones are pristine and there are more than a few of them out there. Most of them are stapled closed which was also most likely done by the distributor or dealer. If I had a choice I would go for the stapled one because it was not altered and you can enjoy the trick as well.
