"Another McGhie miracle. Whatever Roddy is taking, I wish he'd share some with me." - R. Paul Wilson

"Roddy McGhie has trapped a wormhole inside of a card case and the result is a delicious moment of insanity. No one's going to say "Oh, I've seen that one before..." - David Regal

"Stargate is one of those irresistibly surreal visuals that only exist on video, but you can do it live, with stuff they can examine. Plus, Roddy’s explanation is complete, detailed, and goofy. Almost worth it for the laughs, even if the trick is so good." - Curtis Kam


If we just told you that this was another bonkers effect from the mind of Roddy McGhie that wouldn’t be enough. Stargate allows you to go boldly where no marker has gone before.

You put a marker through a card box. You then openly move the tip of that marker to the other end of the card box creating a visual puzzle. Then when you push and pull the marker through the card box the tip goes in and out of the hole on the other end of the card box. It’s like it’s moving through an actual portal through another dimension. This is the kind of magic that looks like trick photography in real life. You leave the holes on opposite ends of the card box, pull the market out of the box.

Here’s the crazy part. Now you can hand out the marker and the box for a thorough inspection.

You read that right.

Everything is examinable.

From the mind that brought you the brilliantly offbeat effects Sewn On, Franken-dph, and Little Door comes one of the most inexplicable and insanely visual penetration effects ever created. Welcome to the future. This is Roddy McGhie’s Stargate.

Cool Trick Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 31st, 2020
It's a cool trick, but there are a few things that should have been cleaned up before production. I understand there are just a few little things that just need a fold and a touchup that did not take long, it's frustrating that I had to watch a video on how to tweak the trick before I used it. But it works as cool as the video shows. I have used it a few times and it works flawlessly.

Stargate like Tenyo but for professionals Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 1st, 2020
I can’t believe this has some negative reviews. The way this works is diabolical! It reminds me of something that Tenyo might have put out but for working professionals. With a little practice you can seemingly hand this out for examination. I am very satisfied with what I received and the instructions. 5 stars all the way!

Not practical... Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 17th, 2022
A good Illusion, very impressive, but not practical at all. The gimmick is fragile. I was disappointed. Very expensive for what you receive. Good for social media but difficult to perform in real life.

The trailer really made me want to buy this so I did. The gimmick is great and really well made. I only gave this a four star because of the instructional video. Normally I like shorter downloads and this was short. But I felt we needed better instructions.
Overall 4 stars.

Read through all the reviews, watched the video, purchased it. The thinking is clean. It is not a self-working, automatic effect, it requires some handling and nuance, but nothing that is difficult. Roddy provides clear direction on the video. His performance and handling shows the level that can be achieved with some practice. Excellent effect.

Simple yet complex… Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 31st, 2023
This is great. It’s so simple it’s easy to overthink it because it’s a true illusion.
Great work, as with all the other tricks I have purchased.

Hello I ordered this trick for a friend and he is highly delighted with it.i would just like to say that I copied the gimmick and used a cigarette instead of a sharpie and I got really good reactions thanks

Still trying to explain what happens Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 15th, 2023
I was totally fooled when I saw this trick. I was even fooled how Roddy pushed the sharpie into the card box I thought the box would be restored and then handed out, but I forgot that this trick is not a solid thru solid and then the boxed gets restored.

It’s a wormhole experiment. So when you hand the card box out for examination, there are two holes on opposite sides of the box. The holes, are like the permanent opening in which you go inside one hole and come out in another hole on the other side of the earth as opposed to a a hula hoop. Go in then come out.
