Fun and practical, a worker for sure. This is going directly into my set.

I needed a quick trick for TV but it had to be good! This was it!

Bottled EP by John Shack is actually 3 different 'object-in-bottle' effects. The first one, Starbucks - a coin in bottle effect, uses an empty Starbucks bottle with a very clever gimmick that John shows you how to make (you will also need another gimmick). To me, the selling point of this is that the bottle & coin can be freely examined.
Splash is also a very nice concept but I had figured out the method of the coin's entry into the water-filled bottle. Still, there was a step I didn't know would work that John did the leg work on.
And the lastly, I did learn an interesting concept regarding the cap for John's effect, Commando Cap In Bottle.
I think you are easily getting your money's worth. All 3 are very visual and look good.
Excellent step-by-step teaching. Also John gives crediting where crediting is due.

The coin into the Starbucks bottle is such a smart idea. He has thought of everything for this effect! And the other one where the a signed borrowed coin can penetrate a full bottle of water is brilliant. I would say it’s a game changer. You literally push it right into the bottle in real time! Wish I could say more but I can’t without giving away the secret so do yourself a favor and buy this download!!!

Super Easy and workable material, the cap in bottle is worth the price of the download alone, so clever and will save you money compared to others on the market.

My posted video of me performing the coin through full water bottle has got a lot of chatter and a lot of views. The bottle label came off so I just performed it that way and it is even more powerful.

John has 3 fun and overall easy effects to do. I think he gives great detail in teaching and they are fun and easy to perform. I look forward to what else John comes up with! What a great price for three cap in bottle effects!

In this release John describes three methods to impossibly put an object (coin or bottle cap) in a bottle. He has obviously put a lot of thought into the effects. He explains them in detail, and gives useful tips for each one. Highly recommended.

Sometimes I am wary on magic downloads by independent creators, because a lot of the time I'm left disappointed. However, this one caught my eye. The ad copy claims it can be used for real life, and instagram. In most of my experience, to me this means very angle and very situational. However I found that was not the case. I am gonna lay out the pros and cons for each effect.
Starbuckks- Pros: Uber visual, adaptable to other bottles (I love to use pop bottles as the glass bottles aren't common in my area) and you get this really nice clean vanish. Instant reset
Cons: I think the way the effect is left clean is a little shaky in the routine shown. I think it's a good way to clean up, but I think it should happen at another time. Just my own opinion though. 5/5

Splash- This one fooled the crap out of me. Not to talk method, but I just thought dupe coin and it wouldn't be impossible to rig it up so it drops. However, that is not the case here at all, it can be signed!
Pros-Super visual, able to be signed, Multiple handlings to give a different visual.
Cons-Bit of a reset time. Can't really carry it on you so to speak. You couldn't just whip a bottle out of your backpack and do it. You would need that reset time and for me it makes it more of a instagram trick. I think it is workable, just too much time to get it set up for my case for every day situation. For that reason I rate it a 4/5

Commando CIB- This to me is the easiest handling most standard trick on here. You take the cap and it just goes through the bottle.
Pros- Left fully examinable, easy set up, easy to carry around and really a "worker"
Cons- It's not quite as visual as the others, but I think it's worth it for it being super practical. You could also play around with handlings to make it more visual. However, I think this trick is a great to add to your walk around sets. 5/5

As far as production quality, it looks like it was shot on a phone, and then has a repeating track in the background. The film quality as a result isn't Paul Harris style, but it is more than enough to teach you what's going on, and doesn't leave you with any questions. The repeating track volume got a little loud at some points for me, and I would have preferred it just to be the video. Just personal opinion though, and again it doesn't leave you with questions. The video runs a little over 30 minutes, and gives ample time to cover all of John's nuances he has came up with while performing, as well as construction.

All in all, these tricks are worth the 10 dollars. I think there is something for everyone here. I rate this product 5/5, and would highly recommend it if you are looking to add some walk around material that isn't cards.

Absolutely love this rountine it’s a great well working up close visual and video trick that works I’m not disappointed
