I don't own any of Chance's children effects to comment, but I do own all of his new "mini-magic" line and the quality is unsurpassed. Anyone who knows of my collection will attest to my appreciating QUALITY!
To comment negatively (Can someone tell me where I bashed a Chance Wolf Product?) on a product without having one in hand to evaluate it is ludicrous and such comments are malicious, childish, perhaps even reveal jealousy and envy towards the builder and owners of the product in question. |

I own just about everything Chance has ever made in the whacky line. The pricing of his props is far lower than their true value. I will say they are wonderful to look at, but even funner to perform.
I have even used his props as stage decoration alone! The feeling of his props on stage create an atmosphere of "This is going to be fun!" Setting the props out provoke the question "What's going to happen next?" with the audience. They anticipate fun. Then when you actually do the tricks the payoff is double! I do assume that each performer practices and thinks about each trick well enough that they are the ones who shine during the performance. It is nice however, to have a nice tool to work with. And am glad that Chance and Shelly provide such excellent tools and outstanding service. The kablammo looks awesome, I would be proud to have one on my stage! Arthur Atsma |

I just ordered one with the ATA case. I am sure that it will be a fun and entertaining effect and addition to my show.
Best regards, Michael

I have a couple of ideas on ka-Blammo, even though I'm still awaiting delivery. First, I plan to obtain some auto "jump leads", in red and black. this provides the opportunity to connect additional cables to the unit. I will have a child assist with the operation of the unit, and every time he connects a wire, I will get an electric shock (funken ring). Then I'll make him swap roles, but of course I STILL get the shock! Then I get all tangled with the cables, then finally we connect the "explosives" to the unit (I will certainly be "connecting" my "Exploding Budgie Box" for larger venues and public events.) Of course, the connected box explodes at precisely the WRONG time! The big question now is still, "what shall I produce for the finale of the effect?" I hope some of you other guys out there can add some ideas here, and what do you think of using the Exploding Budgie Box? (from Derek Lever). With all the business, I really don't think anyone other than a magician would ever realise it's the same effect as the "wooden bunny box".

Potty the Pirate,
I really like your idea using the funkin ring. It has a lot of comedic potential especially if you play a bungling magician character. I also agree that the final load has to be considered very carefuly. While it can be used to produce typical livestock or even a stuffed snake as in the demo, I think the final load can be very creative and unusual and be used to connect with the entire theme of the presentation. Best regards, Michael

Michael,
My original intent was to make use of a Funken Ring ( unfortunately mine broke before taping the quick video demo ). I would HIGHLY recommend Sylvester the Jester's Funken style Ring. I have only heard great things about his creation! Potty, Great idea! I am sure everyone will find a way to make their routines original and their own. By the way, I used a stuffed snake because I have no live animals running around the shop. They tend to chew up cords and get Ka-Blammo'd Take care Chance

Hey Folks,
Just a quick tip regarding the Ka-Blammo. I HIGHLY recommend mixing in an EXPLOSION sound to your music. I am assuming most will do this routine to music. You may have it on a separate track, have your soundman/assistant play it at the appropriate time, or mix it into the main track and be sure of your routine timing. Either way will work great. I had originally planned to install a noise device but realized it would scare the animal being so close to the little guy. Hope this helps and thanks for the great support. Chance

Holy crap!!!! Thank you Chance!!! This is a work of art!!! I kept saying Holy Crap like 20 times. The case is AWESOME!! It protects the prop very well. The DVD is too funny, you cover every thing that concerns the Ka-Blammo on it. If you have it, you are very lucky. If you don't have it, get it quick!! This one is too good to pass up. Pictures and video do no justice. You have to see this in person! If you live anywhere near Los Angeles pm me and you can have a look at it. I am very happy with the price and the quality and OUTSTANDING workmanship on the item. This is the best one yet! ( Should I tell you how I really feel?) You can fit a HUGE rabbit in this!!!
Thanks Wolf's Magic!!! RogueClown |

Now I'm not talking about criticism for criticism's sake, which is worthless: "This sucks" tells me nothing. Why does it suck and explain to me how it can be fixed? The attitude of just glossing over poor magic is a dangerous thing and leads to mediocrity at best. My basic tenet is that: Praise is often polite, but criticism is nearly always honest. Of course criticism need not be angry, impolite or rude. It can and should be presented in a positive way designed to effect positive change.

I performed the Ka-Blammo for the first time yesterday! It was the high light of the show! I mixed a song together that started with missle explosions, I told all the kids to hit the deck and then the James Bond song started. The kids loved it!
This is by far one of my best investments in magic. The KaBlammo is a work of art and I am proud to own one. Chance really out did himself with this one. I performed it last when all the parents were picking up their kids, and they were all very impressed. The energy in the room was amazing. I am so thrilled with this. Most of you would scold me, but I received it Friday and my show was the same day. I didn't know if I should try it, but decided to and I'm so glad I did. Thank you very much Chance and Shelley; this is one I'll be performing for years. |

I just want to be clear about something Chance... There are only going to be 18 of these made and sold right?
I am still on a high from yesterday's performance with it. Words cannot describe... Thank you so much! Your props of done so much for my magic. By the way... The only reason I am selling my Funhouse on Ebay is because it can't fit my bunny. I didn't want you to think I wasn't happy with it. It just doesn't fit my needs. I now have something explosive!
