The “Shell” Game by Mai Bro & TCC Magic
Regular price $60.00
Mai Bro's The "Shell" Game features a clever design and material selection that allow for effortless concealment and seamless color change effects, enhancing the classic three-shell routine.
The Three Shell Game is a classic street con that has transcended various cultures, continuously evolving throughout history.
Today, The Shell Game is primarily performed for entertainment and has developed into numerous versions, including those using traditional shells, walnut shells, and the rarer "Turtle/Tortoise Shells."
While some "Turtle/Tortoise Shell" versions of The Three Shell Game are available, Mai Bro's The "Shell" Game offers significant enhancements beyond mere aesthetics.
Mai Bro's The "Shell" Game allows for all the classic shell game techniques and routines, with a standout feature being a cleverly designed structure that enables a small ball to be hidden easily while still allowing you to show the shell as empty.
In addition, Mai Bro has uniquely included two types of small "peas" made from different materials and colors: yellow silicone "peas" and red cotton "peas." These materials have different compression ratios and friction, making it easy to perform color-changing ball effects.
These innovative features are achieved purely through structural design, with no magnets or moving parts. The video demonstrates some of the impressive effects and routines possible with this ingenious design.
Each "shell" is crafted from pure brass, weighing approximately 53g, with an electroplated surface that is hand-aged and polished by craftsmen to provide an antique look and feel. The set comes with 5 yellow peas and 3 red peas, enabling stunning transposition and transformation effects.
