Combining the 'Genie in a bottle' effect with Radioactive by Titanas would allow you to play some creepy evp recordings through an FM radio on a frequency with just static or 'white noise' being heard in the background. All this before/after a supposed spirit was trapped in a bottle and realeased itself infront of everyone. Then using EVP by Alan Rorrison you could use a specs phone to record more creepy evps that they could keep, all in a seance type setting with a few specs. Or is this just too cruel lol. Best for Halloween perhaps Smile

Just ordered this through HP. My first option is Penguin Flat-packed for free shipping-- but, alas this is not one of them. Just when I was gonna give up on this, HP free worldwide shipping arise. Yay!

Yeah you're probably right. Would be fun though. I could probably drag the 3 effects out over a nice period of time tho so it wouldnt be spooky overload in 5 mins Smile

Indeed. And Haloween falls on Fri 13th this year. First time for 666 years apparently. Very spooky. Smile

Would be nice to have much more info on the gimmick.
How do you apply to the objects?
Is it necessary some misdirection to use it or is it totally invisible?
Do I need to recharge or reload it for another effect?
Im deciding to buy but I have the strange fear this is something I already use adapted to these 3 new effects.
Is there a demo video where it is possible to see a live demo? Smile

The gimmick is very clever and it's definetely a 007 Jams Bond Gadget.

Saw the video instructions and I'm amazed by the gimmick, just saw the Rising Card and it's something I'll try in real world for sure!

I'll continue to watch the video and will post my thoughts afterwards.

The gimmick gives you a lot of possibilities and don't be limited for the effects provided, you'll find another applications for sure!

Heres an honest review. Yes it is a very cool Gadget/ Gimmick, but that's all. It's for magicians who want a new toy. The ad copy is not exactly 100% true and this is not even close to practical. I could never rely on this. Also the handling of the gimmick is so awkward. I'm so disappointed in this product I'm going to return it and get my money back.

:( ... aouch ... let's hope that some other honest reviews said otherwise ... my feeling was that it was too good to be true, I really wished I was wrong ... maybe I was, I will read more reviews before I decide to buy or not.

This "review" if someone would call it that sounds suspect without more detail. In what way is the ad copy not 100% correct? In what way is it not close to being practical? Why could you never rely on this? How is the handling awkward? Honestly we would need more details before such a review could be taken with more than a grain of salt.
How many magicians does it take to change a lightbulb? Regardless, for magicians darkness is a time for d'lite.

I haven't finished watching the video yet but I can see some people complaining about the ad copy since "no invisible thread / no elastics" is technically true but some may choose to disagree. Don't want to say any more to protect the method. Will post more thoughts once I have had a chance to finish the video and play around with it.

I can't say too much with out revealing the method, but I'll give you a hint it's not practical because it's simply just not practical in the real world. The method is not reliable. The handling just feels awkward. Why did you get so offended and angry?

I'm still waiting for my video link at the moment. You're saying the gimmick is not practical. But someone else said it's invisible and you can set it up in front of audiences. How can it's not practical then? You don't have to answer this. Since, I'll watch it sooner or later. I'm just confuse. That's all.

OK, I have had some time to watch the video and play with the gimmick. Its definitely super clever and a great idea, but at least in my experience, I cannot get this to work properly. Clearly it seems to work fine for Peter, so maybe its just me, or possibly that's what FrankieF is referring to as well as far as practicality. I really want to like this because its a cool gimmick and very smart, but I cant get the effects to work reliably... I really cant explain much more as to the issues I'm having because it will tip the method.

Also, the way the trailer is shot leads a purchaser to believe there is nothing in your hands when the magic happens- that's not true. Is it justified? I guess so, but it does feel awkward for me to hold the prop in that manner- it may look fine to a spectator, but it feels really unnatural.

I can't get to the video download/stream....
And I agree so far even without seeing the explanation that I don't like this at all.

The ad copy is very misleading in my opinion.

I will wait until I can get to the download though. Maybe it will inspire and get me excited.
