Great but limited Report this review

Ok, before I've got this, I already had some theories. When finally got my hands on this, I was happy because I did guess it correctly.

Anyway, the gimmick is actually well made. Neat and professionally crafted. Now, same with other buyers, this is supposed to be a close up effect but it has a very limited circumstance for performing this close up.

While the gimmick is pretty hidden, it can be spotted pretty straight forward if you are not carefully if your angle or the movement of your hands.

To cover the existence of this gimmick, you have to: 1) Keep your hand moves doing gestures and delivering patter; 2) control it using appropriate lighting. Having those two covered, you're good to go and will stay invisible.

Anyway, the method is very good, it's thinking-out-of-the-box kinda idea. But its limitation will prevent people to perform this confidently for a close up. It might be good for a webcam trick. It is also silent, meaning it creates no noise during the performance.

So, if you are here for a great method, get this. I'm sure you can perform this well with proper handle and circumstances.

Oh, reset is quite easy. Once you peel off the sticker and stick it onto their card, you're pretty much reset. Of course it is never recommended to repeat the same trick to the same spectator or group.

One star? That review is at least a three, or even a four
