This looks so crazy!! It says "Everything is examinable."
https://www.penguinmagic.com/p/12775 Ad copy: "Another McGhie miracle. Whatever Roddy is taking, I wish he'd share some with me." - R. Paul Wilson "Roddy McGhie has trapped a wormhole inside of a card case and the result is a delicious moment of insanity. No one's going to say "Oh, I've seen that one before..." - David Regal "Stargate is one of those irresistibly surreal visuals that only exist on video, but you can do it live, with stuff they can examine. Plus, Roddy’s explanation is complete, detailed, and goofy. Almost worth it for the laughs, even if the trick is so good." - Curtis Kam If we just told you that this was another bonkers effect from the mind of Roddy McGhie that wouldn’t be enough. Stargate allows you to go boldly where no marker has gone before. You put a marker through a card box. You then openly move the tip of that marker to the other end of the card box creating a visual puzzle. Then when you push and pull the marker through the card box the tip goes in and out of the hole on the other end of the card box. It’s like it’s moving through an actual portal through another dimension. This is the kind of magic that looks like trick photography in real life. You leave the holes on opposite ends of the card box, pull the market out of the box. Here’s the crazy part. Now you can hand out the marker and the box for a thorough inspection. You read that right. Everything is examinable. From the mind that brought you the brilliantly offbeat effects Sewn On, Franken-dph, and Little Door comes one of the most inexplicable and insanely visual penetration effects ever created. Welcome to the future. This is Roddy McGhie’s Stargate. |

I have this but it's called Quantum By Roddy Mcghie ..
Is this an updated one? Or just changed the name? |

I have quantum and bought it at Blackpool 2018 .
I think it actually died on its arse in the real world hence the name change but I will get it back out and be prepared to be proved wrong yet again 😂 . The fact I never actually sold it may be telling me something as to why it’s on the back burner , Gaz 🙂 |

Love Roddys other stuff. Flux and little door were brilliant, but have to say I don’t like this at all.

That was my initial thoughts after Blackpool Rowland .
Infact my other 2 magician friends who bought this with me have sold theirs on . However I am digging it of the magic drawer tomorrow and going to give it perhaps the time it deserves . Little door was a hard act to follow as that is an absolute classic imho Gaz 🙂 |

I am pretty sure you slide the gimmick out of the box at the end and then it’s examinable . It’s certainly not otherwise , I will let you know tomorrow Gaz 🙂

It says "Everything is examinable." So, my question is can I hand them out immediately for examination?

I bought this at a Penguin Expo as an impulse buy but quickly sold it.
But I’m confused if this is exactly the same with only a name change, or if other improvements have been made. I’m not sure this has been answered definitively. |

Videoman, you don't like it?

Well, if it is the same as what I had then I didn’t care for it. TBH, that was quite a while back and I don’t remember much about it so I honestly couldn’t tell you what about it I didn’t care for.

It’s the same product exactly that was at Blackpool early 2018 and I know loads of magicians who bought it and I don’t know any who use it . Mine is sitting here in its brand new box and apart from watching the tutorial once I have never touched it since . I will give it another look to see if I have missed something but it was an impulse buy at the time as I am a massive little door fan and own 6 of those great gimmicks from Roddy . Best wishes Gaz 🙂
