This is a very exciting effect...and I forsee performing it NOT for children, but for adults (not that there's anything wrong with performing for children)...I think that exposure to the "gremlins" story -- more likely to have occurred with audiences old enough to remember the film! -- can only improve one's reaction to the effect.
The one thing that bothers me? And this is admittedly a small thing, but as a writer as well as a performer, it really rankles: the plural of gremlin would be "gremlins in a box," not "gremlin's in a box" (a contraction for "gremlin is in a box," a rather odd thing to say), and it would actually bother me quite a bit to have a big typo like that front-and-center on the stage at any time. Peter, I hate to bring this up, but...any chance that the labels can be reprinted without the typo? --Josh |

Josh, thanks for the comments, believe it or not, the gramar error was done on purpose. My graphic designer thought it would be funny to have spelling errors on the label as did all of the old ads from the 1950s-comic book ads. Those old comic book ads were full of them, so he purposly put in a couple of errors in to the ad which he felt added realisim to the look of the ad.
I can however have him print some off that don't have the errors. I will be including more than one label, so to print one off with out the errors aswell is no problem at all. P.

Peter,
Ah...pretty subtle! Very good! Anyway, I'm glad to hear the correct version of the label will be part of the package...thank you so much! Yours truly, Josh |

My pleasure. I actually have a joke in my routine about the spelling mistakes that always seems to get a good laugh, so you may end up using the original label.
The extra labels are also good to have incase for any reason it gets torn or something spilt on it, or any thing like that you will be able to put on a fresh label. P.

I was going to take a look at “Gremlins in a box” but the product "demo page" link on your site for this product plays the Broom Thru Body video, Thanks in advance,

Hi Mr. Ree,
You are right there is a problem there with that link on that page, but if you go to the actual product page and click the video link at the bottom of this page: http://www.masterofillusions.ca/magic_gremlins_in_a_box.html You will be able to watch the video. In the mean time I will have my web guy fix the link on the demo page. Thanks for the heads up. P.

I just ordered this. I will post a proper review when I get it and have a chance to work on it. Looks fantastic as usual Peter!
Oh yeah...I ordered directly from Peter, do him a favor and do the same. He deserves our support for all the cool and devious things he invents!

I have shipped out a bunch of them already, a lot of them were due to arrive anywhere from late last week until now and over the next few days for the first batch of customers. We were initially overwhelmed with orders and are now finally catching up. I look forward to any reviews from anyone who has time to write one over the next couple of days after receiving theirs.
Just a side note to those still waiting, when you do get it, be sure to watch the Instructional video on the CD Rom in full first before handling any of the props. There are warning labels instructing you to do this, but I just want to make sure everyone follows those labels. The video on the CD Rom is about an hour and features myself and a brief appearance from Sean Bogunia, so when you first get it, plan on an hour just to watch the video and then time after that to rehearse and play with the prop. Set aside at least a couple of hours for when first sitting down with it. There is lots of info and effects to absorb, but its lots of fun! Peter.

Well, I've got mine (several days ago). But to be honest, I simply have not had time to watch the dvd. And tomorrow I'm out of town for a school show. Will try to watch it tomorrow night or Friday. Looks great so far! The box is smaller than expected, but that's ok.
But at least I now know how to get the Gremlin's box to glow green!!! Brian |

Mine arrived today!
And I am pleased to say I am VERY happy I picked this up! It has soooooo much potential! I watched the DVD first - as Peter recommends (even though I really wanted to play with the thing!) and I'm glad I did. Nice clear video instructions on the CD-Rom from Peter and Sean. The "Gremlins in a Box" is VERY easy to programme and whole lot a fun I have played with it a bit this afternoon. I can't wait to be able to spend more time with it! Great Job Peter! (The customer service has also been top notch |

Hey Thanks Brian and Cliff!
Sorry the video is so long and that you must watch it first before playing with it, I just wanted to make sure you guys new all that there was that you need to know. Thanks for kind words, these are very teadious to assemble and take a long time, so I am happy our hard work is paying off. I can't wait to hear about your reactions from your audiences or spectators. Peter.

Wal-Mart sells a great case to store this illusion...

Hey Tophie, that's awesome thanks for sharing. I think I saw Chance Wolf suggest something like that for one of his latest products. We didn't supply an ATA case to keep the cost down for our customers, but this is a great deal. I am definately going to go and pick one up for my personal box of gremlins. For $25 how can you go wrong.
Thanks again Tophie for the link! Peter.

Hey Peter,
I have just finished doing the necessary "behind the scenes work" with my Gremlins and am about to rehearse. Will post a review of the effect and the reactions it got from an upcoming show in due time! I must say I have good reason to believe this thing is gonna kill! I love it, thanks Peter!

I received mine a few days ago, and am very happy so far.
I've yet to really get into it, though I know it will be great. It's certainly very clever. But like a fine wine, it needs to be considered, savoured and explored. So I doubt there will be any instant reviews. But when they do come, I am sure they will be very,very positive!
