Weird spell+item combo - would this work?

[QUOTE="Caliban, post: 7216178, member: 284"] So, I have a 9th level Warlock who recently acquired a Cube of Force. This warlock also has the "Sculptor of Flesh" invocation that lets him cast Polymorph once a day. I noticed that the effect of the Cube, once activated, is centered on you - not on the magic item. And one of the possible effects is a 15' cube (centered on you) that blocks non-living matter from passing through it. So it occurred to me that if I activate that effect and then polymorph myself into a T-Rex (a Huge Creature) - the cube exactly covers my area, but my natural weapon attacks extend beyond it because of my reach. In theory, I would be immune to attacks from weapons and projectiles until the Cube effect ends a minute later. Still vulnerable to spells and monks or animals, but against a group of weapon users it seems like it would be incredibly effective. For added fun, cast Jump (via another invocation) before polymorphing, so you have a T-Rex behind glass leaping across the battlefield, crushing anything it lands on. It feels like this shouldn't work, but I can't see any reason why it doesn't. [/QUOTE]
