I'm not sure I get the connection of the trick to the space theme but this is one of Tenyo's best and most dramatic packaging jobs. The integration of prop and package is perfect and it speaks for itself.
... to the Art of Tenyo Magic blog where you can view and talk about some of the great packaging art, designs and magical mechanisms behind Tenyo magic tricks.
If you're here you probably already collect Tenyo magic tricks. But if you're not already aware of this wonderful Japanese toy manufacturer be sure to check out the informative links below.
Without getting too wordy, this Blog will mostly cover Tenyo design from the 70s to the mid-90s. From 1994 until 2009 Tenyo moved to fully enclosed boxes for their Japanese releases - those packages are not at all imaginative in my opinion but worse, they don't show the prop. My interest is mostly in how the earlier designs incorporated the toy, the art and the package. Also, from 1994 until now most Tenyo products in the US have been packaged in plain plastic boxes and for a while cheap plastic bags.
At some point in the future this Blog may branch out into other magic and novelty manufacturers. However for now there is plenty of Tenyo to cover.
Please make comments but also please be nice. Tenyo products are mostly toys not serious magic props so please keep the comments in that spirit.
