Looks cool. I don't like chess that much though

That is amazing! I like how each spot is like a bowl. Can you just slide the peices along, or what? And what exactly is going on in that last picture? ROFL!

Hmm, it looks pretty cool, but in the past I've found that these kinds of gimmicky chess sets aren't always the best when it comes to using them.
I suppose it comes down to how stable the set is, if the table it's on gets knocked or disturbed, if the pieces go wobbling all over the board at the slightest knock then IMHO this would have to join a long list of novelty chess sets which aren't much use beyond their "coffee table ornament" value *shrug*
