Agreed. Review is dead on. There is a lot going on here. Several gimmicks in play here which usually means a more simplified handling. Not so here. Here, the gimmicks pretty much just act as a mask and the amount of work required to dance around the masks is significant. Premise is good but the method is less than efficient.

I am actually looking forward to receiving this. This is going to be a great lead in effect to my other coin routines!

My issue with this is the fact that I really, really like it. The story line leads itself to very funny possibilities. I'll either learn Kyles handling, (I think I know what's going on) which I don't think is too difficult at all with a little practice, or just modify it and do a total switch at the end. Either way I'll be getting it, very creative and funny coin trick that doesn't bore me to death LOL!

I got this today and I do like it. However, I changed everything out for dollar sized gimmicks. It looks better and the handling is actually a little easier.

Hi all,
As KirkG has mentioned, the trailer doesn't show the clean-up. However, there isn't any off-camera ditching. Everything just gets put on the dirty hand at the end and away into the pocket. Or into the coin purse.
So though you end dorty, it's a pretty easy clean-up and nobody has yet to ask to look at anything.

Have a good day everyone Smile

I’ve been working this since the session I absolutely love the plot I performed it today in a shop buying a watch strap they only had pink or very pink.

Blew them away the button is killer I love that part it’s so jarring.

For the clean up I place the coins in my quiver and turning them in to a tea bag which makes no sense it’s magic.

Great job Kyle he was my highlight of the session this year.

Kind regards

Can anyone comment on the quality of the gimmicks?
I have already seen at least four of these on secondhand magic pages which naturally makes me sceptical. On the other hand it could be that people have realised that this actually takes practise and time to master so are putting it up for sale (which is fine, if its not for you its not for you!). Anyway, if someone who has this can provide some insight it would be much appreciated.

cheers

IMO, the gimmicks are pretty good. There are three gimmicks. And, if you think that makes it a self working trick, it's not. If you're into coins, a little practice and you should have it. If you're not into coins, it'll probably be a little more challenging.

Gimmicks are decent although the deep dish variety would have been better for better cover. The button is slightly rounded and that can make it a little tougher to control/conceal. My biggest issue is the noise factor at a couple points in the routine, especially phase 3. Doing the moves is one thing. Doing them silently is another.

Terrific idea for a kicker - thanks for sharing.

The entire routine is a bit refreshing at a time when many folks seem insistent on finding meaning in magic. This one wears its randomness proudly. Very meta.

I’ve also been working this, and all I can say is I love it, when some reviewers say it’s hard to do, it’s not yes it will take you time if your not a coin magician, just a few days rehearsals to get moves down is perfect. The gimmicks are awsomme well made to last a lifetime, reset takes seconds this to me is in my opinion the best trick of the year that actually doesn’t make sense😊😆

I’ve been working on this for a month now and seem to have most of the noise issues solved and the handling down, with a couple of modifications. Kieron’s idea of cleaning up with a kicker using a Quiver purse is brilliant, so I went with that. It’s a great coin effect in our weird pandemic time because no one else needs to touch anything, it all occurs at chest height, and you don’t need to put anything on a table.

This looks great on video. However, with people saying it is hard to do, the noise is a problem and angles are a problem, I will stay clear of it. Too small for stage shows, and when I do strolling, I have to be prepared for people looking over my shoulder. So this will not work for me but it looks great. Cheers!

You can do this surrounded, I have. Just have to bring the coins down to chest level or a little below and bring them closer to your body and all will be fine. With a little practice the noise won't be an issue.

If Steve Faulkner who is absolutely brilliant at magic took 2 weeks to get it down smoothly then I 100% agree with him. Your few days of rehearsals I think are very misleading unless you are better than Steve which is possible but very highly unlikely imho Gaz 😊
