The Effect The spectator is asked to think of any card (no force). The deck is shown to have a stick figure magician on the back, standing in a circus tent, next to a cannon. You riffle the edge of the deck and in a death-defying feat of utter bravery, the little guy fires himself out of a cannon and catches the spectators selected card in mid air!

This is one of those fun things that anyone who works with cards ought to have. Basically, someone selects a card, and then you show them a flip-book animation on the back of the deck in which a stick figure finds their card.
The animation is cute and funny, and the handling required really isn't that difficult. Don't even sweat the move required to position the card, because the spectator doesn't know what's coming, and with a little time misdirection, no one is going to remember what you did with the card anyway.
And besides, this isn't the sort of trick anyone is going to bother to try to deconstruct anyway. That's because it's not like the usual sort of card trick where you've done something to fool or outsmart the spectator, and now they feel challenged to figure out how; instead, this is one of those rare effects where you're merely showing the spectator something exceptionally cool that will put a smile on their face and get a nice laugh.

Great quality fun to perform

This one is great. The quality of the cards is spot on. People of all ages truly enjoy watching the cartoon assistant pick out the card they selected. Most skill levels will get the handling down with a little practice. This one travels in my case everywhere I go.

Same Trick with a Fresh Look
by christurchinski from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada on 04/06/2010 02:03:44
This trick is the exact same as the original Card-Toon deck with the exception of how the little guy chooses to reveal the card. If you don't have either, I personally like this one better. You can get both if you want, but I recommend this one over the other.
Again, this trick is so great because there are no forces used at all. The spectator really does have a free choice of any single card in the deck. After the trick is over, it pretty much resets instantly. You just have to put the card back in the right spot and you're ready to go.
