Think Pink vs T-Rex

Is there much of a difference? If you have Think Pink, is it worth bothering about T-Rex?

Replying to Cameron7...

Penguin is just one magic shop; it doesn't have everything.

Doug Dyment's R2D2 can be got at Dyment's site

deceptionary.com/r2-d2.html

Btw, I don't make any profit of any kind from mentioning R2D2...I just think it's the best center tear.

Plus it has a lot more raving reviews from big name heavy-hitters...Bill Fritz, Larry Becker, Richard Osterlind, Bob Baker, Tom Berger,
Bob Cassidy, Iain Dunford, Jan Forster, Haim Goldenberg, Tom Jorgenson, Lior Manor, Colin McLeod, Barrie Richardson, Marc Salem, Neal Scryer, Michael Weber, Richard Webster, John Wells, etc...

"Brainbuster" mentioned a center tear called R2D2 by Doug Dyment. I searched Doug Dyment and also R2D2 here on Penguin and nothing seems to come up. Does anyone know how to find R2D2 by Doug Dyment please? Thanks very much.

Think Pink sucks.
T-Rex is much faster--two rips and you have your peek.
It's also a lot easier to tear a business card with T-Rex.

R2D2 center tear by Doug Dyment makes both Think Pink and T-Rex look like you're simply opening up the paper. R2D2 is beautiful, and is the only CT I know of that truly lives up to the hype "they can burn your hands and not see anything."

Both T-Rex and Think Pink are misdirection center tears. You do NOT want them looking at your hands while you rip it up, because it's way too obvious that you're just opening up the paper.

T-Rex at least has the advantage of being faster. Think Stink is both ugly (obvious that you aren't merely ripping up the paper) and slow (takes too many tears to peek).

Though both are versions of a center tear T-Rex includes a lot more training and ideas and it is better suited for people who will perform a center tear with a business card. If you just want to learn about center tears in general then Think Pink would be a fine starting point.

I asked the original question..

I have both now, and I am SO HAPPY I did.
Absolutely great.
I've done most CT's, and this is my favorite no doubt
