Very cool mike, thanks.

I love the gimmick! I now have three, so technically they are no longer alone! Yay!

It's an incredible idea and very very simple! That's what I love about it!

Any update about the expansion pack?

The DVD footage is in the can and Matt is editing it. Cheers.

Christopher

Hi All,

As Christopher mentioned the footage for the Alone Expansion Pack has been shot & is now being edited.

The official release of the Expansion Pack is going to be through Christopher Taylor at the Blackpool Magic Convention. It will then be available on the Taylor Imagineering website towards the end of February immediately following Christopher's return to Canada.


Now for some good news! The proposed price for the Expansion Pack was to be
$50-00 US, I am happy to announce that we have shaved $10-00 off this price. The official price for the Expansion Pack will be $40-00 US (+ shipping).

Now for the announcment of the Alone Expansion Pack contest. The winner is.......

Café member Mike Storz!!! We loved Mike's Voodoo (PK Touches) routine so we are happy to announce this has been included on the dvd. Mike will be receiving a free Alone Expansion Pack for his great idea (I have PM'd you Mike, congratulations my friend!). Thanks to all of you for your great ideas, posts & PM's, it really was a tough decision.

The official contributors list for the Expansion Pack is now:

Mozique
John Archer
Patrick G. Redford
Tony Chris
Ben Williams
Mark Thorold
Mike Storz
Christopher Taylor
Matthew Johnson

Watch this space for the official release of the Alone Expansion Pack coming at the end of February.

Cheers,

Matt Johnson

I'm so excited!!! Thank you so much Matt and Christopher. Words cannot express how honored I am to be on this DVD. You're both terrific and what a list of contributors as well!

Thanks you again,

Mike

How comprehensive are the gimmicks that come with the Alone Expansion Pack?
I don't want to expect anything but the best. I am only curious.

best regards

Hi ArtIn,

In order to answer your question.........$40-00 US :o)

OK, I am joking of course!

The expansion pack is a DVD in a DVD case with about 9 routines from some great minds in mentalism. Some of these routines require props, those props are included in the DVD case (this will give you an idea of the size of the props). Remember it is not size that counts ;o)

When you consider that a DVD these days can run for about $30-00 to $35-00 US, a DVD with props included for $40-00 US is not unreasonable.

I hope this answers your question.

The Expansion packs are pretty much ready to go. They will go up on the Taylor Imagineering website when Christopher returns from Blackpool at the end of February.

The initial run of Expansion Packs is only 100 units. If you would like to reserve your copy out of the first 100 units email Christopher at info@taylorimagineering.com. Christopher will then put an expansion pack aside for you out of the initial 100 & will contact you at the end of February so that you can pay

These units will go fast as Christopher will take 20 to Blackpool & I will take 20 to Denmark & Norway! Again, these units will go quick so if you want to reserve one I recommend you email Christopher right away!

Cheers,

Matt Johnson

Thanks Matt. You guys have been great. I can not wait to see what this expansion pack is going to be about. Amazing stuff.

Will the expansion actually expand as well ?

The Expansion Pack may (quite possibly) expand :o)

Matt Johnson

I want mine now...lol

Thanks Matt.

20 pieces for blackpool.. I have to run very fast...

20 pieces for Blackpool .....surely to goodness not ,Ill have to camp out to get one ....Think Im kidding ? lol
Mark

Mark, you my friend will be getting one for free ( you knew that right?). After all your fantastic contribution does have pride of place on the DVD!

You know 20 pieces for the whole of Blackpool does not sound like allot I guess. On your marks.....get set.......

You could always pre register for one by emailing Christopher at info@taylorimagineering.com

Cheers,

Matt Johnson

P.S. Justin, you my friend must work out right? I am usually good at this stuff as I am mental! If you were not at the front of the line I don't see anyone arguing with you :o)!

What can be said about the Routines on the Expansion Pack?

Will their discription be kept as a secret or can I read somewhere about it?

all the best

Will you have any demo's here as you had before,

Hi Dave,

We will not be posting demo's for the Expansion Pack.

The material in the Expansion pack is truly great stuff & in my opinion shows the maturity of ALONE & how it has grown. With both mine & Christopher's busy schedules & other projects on the go we simply have not had time to do demo's.

I don't believe anybody will be disappointed with the Expansion pack....it's full of great stuff (I think I said that already :o)

Cheers,

Matt Johnson

WOW thanks Matt, my expansion pack is pre-ordered and I can not wait to see this pack. I can not explain in words the reactions I have been getting with this device. Anyone who is still on the fence about buying this and using it, believe me, get over on this side of the fence and buy it. I have used this four times just booking a show. I used it with the voodoo routine explained by mike, "thank you mike by the way", the perspective client freaked out and could not wait to have me at his party of 20 people "yikes". Last week was the show, my performance was about an hour. Everything went GREAT! The ALONE will build a strong routine. I used my alone for three routines and one of them was finding my paycheck hidden from me. I am horrible at helstorism, finding which poker chip on the table a spectator has chosen is the extent of my abilities with real helstorism; so using this to locate my paycheck works for me..!!!
I love my alone, and can not wait to see what creative minds come up with soon!
