S.T.S Is Here!

Self Tying Shoelace along with many other new items are now available from for you guys here in Europe! Remember those signed copies are going fast so to ensure you get one we strongly advise ordering sooner rather than later to avoid disappointment. Even if you do not get a signed copy, disappointment is not a word you can associate with this effect. After finally seeing this trick here in the office we are completely hooked and can't stop doing it. It has become a running joke to see how many times you can get someone out with a "hey mate, your shoelaces are undone". Other great new effects are also ones David Blaine has recently performed, such as "Strange Travelers" and "The Incredible Shrinking Finger". Both awesome effects and both come with full recommendations! Its been great getting all your emails and seeing all those fantastic comments on the order forms, thanks for all the support (but please don't stop now), it really does make our day.

Time to Self Tie those Shoelaces Penguintown!

STS comming to EUROPE!!!!

I'm getting literally inundated with emails asking when Self Tying Shoelace will be out to buy from us here in Penguin Europe, believe me here in the office we feel your excitement to! I am assured by our fearless leaders Maxwell, Sam and Acar that STS will be arriving on the very next shipment coming in from America and available to buy by the start of next week if not sooner.We are sorry for the delay, believe me when I say that we really do want to bring STS to Europe as fast as possible. Also I've received word from the man himself, Mr Jay Noblezada, that there will be 200 signed copies of STS on the shipment, which means the first 200 STS orders will get signed copies! Your going to have to be quick off the mark to get them though as I guarantee they are going to go fast

Now for some serious stuff. I know a lot of you will have heard some rumors that Penguin Magic "stole" this effect from another magician and that Jay Noblezada did not come up this trick at all, that we merely published this trick with out crediting its "original" creator. This is completely false and untrue. This effect was created and developed by Jay Noblezada and any other people's claims that they came up with it first is unfortunate for them, as they did not publish this fantastic effect when it came to them. That's the European opinion anyway.

Morgan Strebler, what a guy!

While doing a recent stock take I happened to come across a box of Spun by Morgan Strebler http://www.penguinmagic.com/europe/product.php?ID=976, Morgan being the Awesomely nice guy that he is had signed every single copy and had obviously hidden them when he was over here recently for just a moment such as this. That Morgan huh?

So if you were planning on ordering the Spun DVD anytime soon or you just want a signed copy to add to that collection, just leave us a nice comment in the "comments" section of the order process and tell us you would like a signed copy. We only have 25 copies so only those who ask will get them.

Also a quick apology to those of you who are waiting on a specific item to come back into stock and when it does, it goes out again so fast that you didn't get a chance to order it. Especially Eogahn Healey (one of our forum posters) who it seems has been after an Invisible Deck for an age but has been unable to get one due to its demand. Sorry Eoghan, I'll give you an email the moment it comes back in to stock! If there is anyone else who would like to know when a particular item comes back in email me at penguinuk@gmail.com or leave a comment here (leaving your name) and I'll email you when it does!

Keep it cool Penguin Town!

Sea Side Shenanigans

A few friends and I went to a fantastic sea-side town yesterday called Weston-Super-Mare. We were celebrating my friend Tony's birthday. A great time was had by all and I would seriously suggest that if any of you Penguins would like to experience a really good day out, Weston-Super-Mare should be on your list of places to visit. Especially as there appeared to be quite a few different magic shows there, I didn't get to go to one but I did see a few posters for them.

Any magicians in Weston-Super-Mare or anywhere else for that matter, why not leave us a comment here telling people where and when you perform...you never know, you might just get a few of us Penguins turning up!

Man...that was a busy weekend!

I had a great time seeing some old friends while Maxwell stayed in the office the whole time, literally chained to his chair, coming up with new ways to excite and inspire the European Penguins!

While we work we are rockin to Pandora! A great website that allows you to play unlimited songs by thousands of different artists all day and all night! Go check it out at www.pandora.com.

Penguin UK Balloon School Special

Here's the text of an email we just sent out:

Hi Penguin,

I just arrived at the Penguin UK office outside of London. Over the next month we're going to be making a lot of improvements to Penguin Magic UK.

The first thing we're going to do is set our European customers up with some OUTRAGEOUS "Penguin UK ONLY" specials. These special offers are not going on in the states. They will only available through Penguin UK at http://www.penguinmagic.co.uk

To start things off we're offering a HUGE special on our brand new Balloon School DVD. Balloon School with Joe Montella is the most comprehensive course on Balloon Entertainment ever produced. It's in stock in the UK and it's a MONSTER COURSE with over FOUR HOURS of material. The product is designed to take you from beginner to pro in balloon sculpture. Click here to read all about it: http://www.penguinmagic.com/europe/product.php?ID=940

If you order Balloon School now (through Penguin UK), we'll send you a FREE pump (the one Joe Recommends) and a FREE bag of balloons (260 Qs).

Check out the demo video to see Balloon School in action: http://www.penguinmagic.com/europe/product.php?ID=940

Thanks for choosing Penguin UK. You were born to perform. Now go out and entertain the world.

Sincerely,

Maxwell Murphy
Penguin Magic: born to perform.

P.S. We're currently putting together some more very special deals for Penguin UK customers. Stay tuned!

It's great to be here!

First off I want to say what a treat it is to be here... Especially after the customs officials at London Gatwick put me through the ringer.

There was no one in line behind me, and my customs official decided to ask me a few hundred questions. The hi-light was when he asked me how long I am staying in the UK.

"One month", I told him.

He said, "And how much money do you have with you."

I reached down into my pocket and all I found was my GREED bill. I pulled it out and said, "A dollar, Sir."

He stared at me. There was no way he was going to let me into the country with one dollar in my pocket.

I said, "Well, a dollar goes a long way. You just give it a wave and it turns into a FIVE. Another wave and you've got a TEN to spend. And another leaves me with a TWENTY."

I wasn't brave enough to deliver the "Don't get GREEDY" line to a guy who held my fate in his hands (although I'm sure Danny would have done it). I stopped the trick right there.

The customs official didn't exactly smile and gasp and scream like the spectators in the brand new GREED demo, but he must have liked the trick because he let me through!

And as I said, it's GREAT to be here. The guys at Penguin UK are awesome, and we've got a lot of improvements planned for the next month... INCLUDING some special offers I don't think you'll want to miss.

Stay tuned!

Hello Penguins!

Welcome to the Penguin Magic Europe Blog!

I'd like to announce that this Blog is just the start of an exciting time here in Europe as over the next month there will be a lot more great new developments. Maxwell himself is in town and will be working with our team here to focus on bringing you, our European customers the very best value and service. Now I know that's what your expecting me to say, its what everyone says right? However I feel very optimistic about the plans we will be trying out over the next few weeks. It is no secret that things have not been 100% here in the Europe office over the past couple of months and we know that some of you believe that we have neglected our European Penguins. From my perspective this was not true but again, that's what I am expected to say. We here at Penguin Magic Know that actions speak louder than words. To this end all I will say is watch this space for I am positive that it will soon become a very interesting space to watch!

Cheers

Tim
