I am interested in automatic thimbles, but wondering which set I should buy.

I have these combination in mind:
Two sets of Glowing White + video
Two sets of Glowing Colors + video
Glowing White + Glowing Colors + video

Any suggestion?

Depends on the routine in the video which I do not know. How about those of you who have had purchased it or heard from your friends that have it?

Thanks a bunch in advance!

I remember reading reviews for this when it came out several years ago. They weren't very good, but it was mostly because of the price. If I remember correctly, they used to be around $30. In my experience, most thimbles sold anymore are basically the same (smooth plastic, a few are wooden), just different sizes. Even the Fakini thimbles, which I use, are made from the plastic kind. The Hottrix site says these are for "medium to large fingers."
If you're interested in thimble magic, go for it.

BTW - don't be fooled by the name. Be prepared for a good chunk of practice time.

Oh, and I don't know what the routine is, so you may want to contact Hottrix to see if you'll need both sets.
