🔮 Toysmith 79747 3D Mirascope: Mesmerizing 6-Inch Holographic Illusion Toy Review

I saw one like this while on vacation with my parents about 40 years ago. I remember being amazed at that at the time. I was probably around 9. I really wanted one. When I saw this on Revain for less than $10 I decided to buy one for myself and show my kids. There are much more expensive ones out there and I was worried that my under $10 ones would run into problems. But the reviews were good so I gave it a try. It didn't disappoint. The optical illusion is very cool and very convincing. The…

Cheap junk. Too small to really make a cool effect at just over a dime. My dad had one and I remember playing around with it as a kid. Ours was much bigger and much stronger. I wanted one to stimulate my toddler's curiosity about science. All I could think of was cheap junk. If you even think about cleaning the mirror surface, the coating wears off.

If you need to clean I would recommend using a can of compressed air. You can't clean anything that needs to be wiped, because the mirror will be scratched and the effect will be lost. Does what it's supposed to do and overall worth the price (less than €10). I would rate it higher if it was a bit bigger to fit some larger…

This Mirascope reflects (pun intended) much of what has been said and is well worth its small price if only as a table/desk - used as a conversation piece. . The quality is as expected for the price. All-plastic housing with highly polished mirror surfaces, which are VERY susceptible to scratches and can only be used to a limited extent due to their small size. To my surprise, I found that even a very thin microfiber cloth can scratch mirrors. So the best advice I can give is not to touch the…
