Chop-Doh is a copy of Play-Chop. UnderMagic sells this product since 2016 and it is handcrafted by Josemari Alcazar. Even the final load is handmade and not just a rubber duck. Javier Natera credits Josemari Alcazar. But Josemari Alcazar and Adrián Carratalá from UnderMagic haven't been asked for permission for the release of this product.

Good idea, mediocre production. Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 6th, 2021
I have owned a lot of Chop Cups over the years and have been performing my Chop Cup routine in professional shows for over a decade. As far as this version goes, it should have been $20 less for what you get.

I'll begin by saying the gimmicked ball I received is much larger than the non-gimmicked balls. Therefore, the first time I performed a routine using this set for someone, they immediately noticed the size difference and said, "I don't think that's the same ball". This is obviously not ideal, as I then had to play it off as a growing ball trick instead.

If you are new to the Chop Cup, you get a collection of simple moves from the tutorial, but you will not get a routine. I could see this being a deal-breaker for someone less experienced. The cup itself is a bit flimsy and may crack easily, so be gentle with it or it will surely not last.

Overall, there are much better Chop Cups on the market and though this one has a fun look and theme to it, I would certainly not purchase it again at this price.

Utter Crap! Waste of $40.00 Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 3rd, 2021
Purchased Chop-Doh as an alternative to my other chop cup routines and the presentation video by Murphy's Magic make it look so wonderful but alas not is all wonderful when you receive the prop.

The magnet which is stuck inside the Chop cup can be seen quite visibly which defeats the idea that it is just a Play Doh container. The magnet is too strong so you need to bang the cup down very hard to release the ball.

I am not the only one who is disappointed with this prop, check out the comments on themagiccafe.com and search Chop-Doh.

To avoid disappointment don't bother buying it.

Nice idaa, but over priced and mine did not work..... Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 12th, 2023
The magnet in the ball is so powerful it will not release no matter how hard I pound the plastic cup...plus when I tried to fix it, then the bottom with magnet would come out with ball.If you are going to buy this effect you should check it out physically on location. I would not buy on-line it is a big let down....

Is not a Undermagic idea. Report this review

Undermagic copy the idea to Chad Long, Who publish this idea long time a go. Undermagic know that because they see the idea in "La Dama Inquieta" magazine, in article of Carlos Hampton, and Undermagic never ask permit to Chad for manufacture and sell the trick in his store. So?
