I really don't like this card, its visual and different but it just ruins a really good effect (the
hummingbird). Firstly people know somethings up as soon as you pull it out, secondly its
construction is not that great, you gotta put wax on the back of the battery contact, it gets yucky
and not that great to work with, put the wax anywhere else and its unbalanced.
If you have
the hummingbird don't buy this thinking it will make it better, its only worth it if your performing
to drunk people at a nightclub, sober people arent that impressed, its your 5 bucks don't waste it.

it's a great idea, and I'd love to see it work but it won't. it doesn't come with instructions so
maybe i'm doing something wrong, I don't know.

cons-

you have to put the wax on the battery
youll have to work with it a little better so it the battery
works.

This makes the effect look better, but I was performing one night for some people at school. What
went wrong was some guy said "It's a special card!" So he lunged at me, and in fact it was not a
special card, it was the three feet of string attached to it. I would just leave it with the regular
hummingbird card.

I do alot of floating f/x and like this because PEOPLE LIKE THIS and ask me 2 do my LIGHT FANTASTIC
ROUTINE. Just like all magic it is up 2 the perform what one like 2 perform, BUTTTTTTT I like to
perform more of what my spectators like. Many like 2 amuse themselves while I live 2 perform 4
others. Yes it is noting new but if you do any floATING/FLYING CARDS AKA THE hummingbird card or
the 20 other names it is called THIS IS BY FAR MORE Entertaining. The quality is ok but for the
price vut du u vant. Just kiddin'
I do this for only 30 to 60 seconds alot out side of
the place I am performing, as guest walk in to creat a buzz, nothin' more.

This is a neat addition to your hummer's whirling card but there are some cons with it. It should be
done in darker rooms in order to see the light better which is only bad because it's limiting, and
also it adds some weight to the card. Just be prepared to test it out quite a bit before showing it
to the public. You don't want the thread to break, and you don't want the wax to unstick. Aside from
those, this is a pretty cool gimmick.
its ok, the first one I got dint work so I had to return it and get another one,
then it dint
work, But I dint let customer service know, because they already helped me out once...
but its
kinda heavy...
If you get it put clear tape on the side were the metal piece sticks out...
and often the batter flies out...
i find that this is a very cool trick. this is not the very serious kind of magic. this is a blast
at parties, and i love it!
pros:
very cool looks when in motion (look at the video)
very long lasting (unless you loose a part, if you buy it you know what i mean just scotch tape
it on)
cons
a bit heavy, but thats not really a problem
its an accessory, make sure
to read the description (i failed that, thus having to get some more stuff)
i think that
this card is well worth it for 5 $ 3 words:
add to cart
I really like it, but it looks too fake. Hummingbird card looks really spur of the moment, real
magic. Rave card looks too much like a trick for me.
I am very displeased with the gimmick. It is flimsy and not Penguin quality. I have never given a
bad rating on a Penguin product before this! All it is is a glowing card that hardly even works.
