"Recently, I was hired to perform at a private party for Ferrari. I performed this for every guest. They loved it!" - Josh Burch

"As a huge fan of magic with trading cards, I can now see endless possibilities that have just been unlocked, without the need to gaff or destroy my rarest cards!" - Michael O'Brien

Are you ready for nonstop visual magic with props that anyone will recognize?!

Perform eye popping visual card changes with iconic trading cards. If you love trading card games like Pokemon, or Magic the Gathering, you can now combine your hobbies and create an enthralling miracle with your unique collection.

Here's what happens:
Start by showing your audience a stack of rare Pokémon cards. You explain that your friends and siblings were always trying to steal your cards, so you would hide them disguised as common cards. You then slowly change each card into a common card, one by one. Your audience can look at and inspect the cards as they change.

Once all of the cards have changed, you have a stack of common cards. But don't worry, just as quickly as they changed, they all change back into your rare collection!

The routine is designed so that the spectator can handle and examine the cards after each change! We even teach an alternative handling where you can end clean and have everything examined. You can mix and match the moves to create your own routines and you can add cards from your own collection to make your routine unique to you.

Uncommon uses Penguin Magic's patented Dubs and Sings. These special sleeves allow you to perform incredible card magic with regular trading cards. The sleeves keep your cards safe, they make them easy to handle, and they alllow you to gaff your trading cards without damaging them.

You will receive an assortment of genuine Pokemon cards. You also receive all of the gimmicks you will need. Everything is ready to go out of the box so you can start performing immediately!

This isn’t a normal card trick, this is Uncommon!

With tcg cards making a comeback, this is the perfect way to re-imagine packet effects. Josh’s wildcard handling is wonderful! 5 stars for an effect/utility decive(s) that will be used for gigs.

Very cool version Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 2nd, 2023
Great trick for blowing the minds of anyone who loves trading card type games. Since the cards provided are random they may or may not be ones that stand out to some players. It is a very clear and straightforward presentation with only three easy sleights. It is a nice break from traditional packet tricks with playing cards.
The video instruction is well shot with all the thoughts behind the moves explained. The presentation could have been a bit more polished. There are some spots where he has to back up because he got the order of the routine al little off. Another where he shows you one way and proceeds to do it another before going on.
In the end it's not a complicated trick and like any Wild Card type effect it's how you tell the story. All in all, I really like this one..

Pretty good Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 30th, 2023
This is actually a pretty good concept. My son is really into pokemon cards so ive been looking for a decent effect for a while just to show him with his cards.

The fact that this allows you to work with any trading cards is pretty great. The cards arent gimmicked just the utility device that comes with it so you can use your favorite pokemon cards.

I even created a concept that involves Pokémon evolving in the process.

The gimmick is well made and should last a long time.

I also like the fact that you have the option to end clean (albeit with a switch, but not a difficult one).

This is obviously for a very niche audience, but if someone is very interested in pokemon cards (or magic the gathering, etc... this will be a great choice.

The Most Flexible Wild Card Ever! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 30th, 2023
Uncommon is the most innovative wild card "apparatus" I've seen, and I have quite a collection. The routine itself is a solid, well-taught wild card effect, but the ability to adapt it to any routine with most standard collectible game cards (e.g., Pokemon or Magic the Gathering) makes this outstanding. I bought two for even more routine flexibility, and so I can instantly play to different audiences. Many thanks and kudos to Josh Burch for this fantastic product!

Pretty nifty. Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 6th, 2024
This one is nice to just carry around.
Now I was bummed when I learned that this was similar to something I had been playing around with before but, couldn't find anyone to help me make it.This product is now pattended and well designed and better than what I was dabbling with with. Also there's legal stuff all over it. But, if you want to mess with your local card or tabletop games shop, then this one will have them scratching their heads. Or if you own a shop. It could be fun to bring out. I really do recommend that you grab this if you can. I gave it 4 stars because I'm jealous he was able to get his made. It does deserve 5 stars.

Made a collector outta me! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 30th, 2024
I guess I'm the only guy my age to have missed the Pokemon trend in my teens, I guess I was too concerned with harboring demons and skeletons for my closet by the time they hit the scene to concerned with these pocket monsters.
Further infuriating was when GO was released and I saw horses of people living in a false reality as opposed to stopping to watch my street shows.
When I saw this release I was unimpressed and only got it because of the dollar amount of my order qualifying it as a bonus to the order.
I've generally performed it for younger than me spectators,but at 45 that's pretty common demographic. I'm not much of a card mechanic but found this release way easier than say stand up monte in which some of the sleights were similar. This could be due to a larger knowledge of said sleights or the fact I'm sober now but anyhow it only took a couple viewings to get it down, and even when I erred my spectators didn't seem to catch on.
I think the props cast a spell of their own bringing this younger viewing audience into nostalgic hypnosis where their recollections are more on their minds than the moves made to achieve the effects which seem to hit hard in the multiple phase routine. I do feel the price point is a bit high and that's why I didn't give it five stars. But as a bonus it definitely was a surprising five star surprise.

Good trick Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 13th, 2023
Good, fun trick. Pretty simple method, but fun to watch. I haven't performed it yet, so I'm not sure if it's incredibly fooling, but definitely an entertaining routine. Josh's instructions are clear and complete, easy to follow. I would say beginner level difficulty.
