works wonderfull at the right angle of viewing!!!
will it break ,,, yes ..
all toys will...
is it worth it ?
darn tooting it is !!!
amaze your kids and your self if you have never seen one
great toy and great price
dont let any one saying it is cheesy bother you
while it is not a forever lasting toy... it will break if you step on it
it will last a good while
the worse thing i can see is the mirror finish will scratch if they
move it around with coins in it !!!
and that will make it not so great to look at
but .. you are not paying a arm and a let for it!!!
yes .. i highly recomend this toy!!
The item to be shown in the hologram must be pretty short, maybe 3/4 inch max. Other than that it will blow you mind.
I don't know what I would have done if I saw this in my experimental college days.
