Default Anybody try new clay Studio by Sculpey?

According to Polyform it's supposed to be very durable and easy to
condition, and superior for large projects as it doesn't crack, etc.. Same
bake time. Bakes to a "suede finish." Comes in very interesting colors.
Just wondering if anybody has tried it. Does it sand/polish well, etc.

I started making some beads with it - gets very soft, very fast. My
friend Ellen made some button embellishments out of it. It had a nice
soft finish and seemed to be very flexible. Other reports out on the
'net are saying that a couple weeks after curing, the formerly flexible
pieces snapped in two when bent. Jury is still out.

I hear it doesn't really polish to a shine, but will get a dull sheen.
