Great review Steve! I have been waiting for this to come back out for years, and mine arrived two days after it went up on Vanishing Inc. My tuck case had some defects, or I may have damaged it somehow. I just made a new one out of Red Rider Back tuck case flat stock (I got from Penguin Magic years ago), and it works perfectly-and, in my opinion, looks better. As hard as this looks, I have already mastered the card selection, but I will not be performing this until I have a few months of practice under my belt. I am still practicing Little Holes, which I purchased directly from Trick Trick Boom when it was released. This is top-shelf, miracle-level magic, and any magician who purchases this needs to keep that in mind. Either be ready to perform a miracle, or don't perform it at all.
Fell in love with this immediately - will potentially not perform it „out of the box“ but the potential is really great - no electronics 🎉, no threads 🎉, no magnets 🎉 - just care and practice. Thanks to Angelo for this amazing idea and to you Steve for reviewing it.
This could be a strong effect if for the select card you use a marked deck that you never touch and your spectator will only see the card selected. Have them think on the card and wuala. It raises!!!
Haha! It's been a mystery. Yesterday, whilst recording a podcast, we discovered that it's probably my shoe running against the chair as I sit kind of half cross-legged. It categorically isn't anything less acceptable! 😂
@@RealMagicReview That's great to hear! This is the kind of effect where if you are writing a parlor show, the downsides can be made total non issues. Man parlor seems cool.
I'll preface my comment by saying I love Angelo, and I think he's a creative genius. It does seem like you were struggling to not say you didn't like it in this review. Thats fine. To me this seems like a trick magicians will appricate more than the public. With a bit of thought you could create a similar effect with a devano deck and leave the spectator with the impression they just thought of a card rather than selecting one. That one could be done surrounded and with no fiddly finger movements.
I know what you mean, but I'd definitely say if I didn't like it. Or just not review it. I like it, but it's definitely a unique trick and will not be for everyone. And I know what you mean. I sometimes get a kick out of methods that I know could be more easily executed whilst leaving the same impression, but I also think that can add to the joy for me. For those performing lots, that can be important. But again many won't feel this way and all opinions are right and valid. Thanks so much.
Over the years I've seen you review some tricks that are absolute rubbish and you still found nice things to say about them, to the point where if I hadn't known better I would have thought they were decent products. You even addressed in some video I saw why you never give negative reviews.

This is great. And I'm so glad you're already making loads of progress!

Yes I agree. 🙂
Thanks Steve. I'm intrigued.
I still can’t believe the ingenuity that went into creating this. If you “think” you know…..you have no idea. 😂
Angelo is a lovely bloke, messaged me about Out of Order.

What is that noise at 1:30?

There's so much magic I'd love to do but I don't do parlor yet.
It's my favourite, and I think it's the easiest in some ways, as you don't have to reset anything and you have a little more control. I love it.
