It’s alive! A ball of clay transforms itself into a hand that steals a signed, borrowed coin. They can IMMEDIATELY rip the clay apart and find their SIGNED coin inside the ball of clay! A smash hit sellout at Blackpool, this charming take on Bob Farmer’s Little Hand never fails to delight any audience. This is Franken-Doh by Roddy McGhie.

WHAT'S NEW IN 2.0?

1. This is the big one: the color of the gimmick now matches the color of the most popular clay on the market, so it's dirt cheap and easy to find refills any time you go grocery shopping. This means you'll be able to do it all the time without worry.

2. The size of the gimmick is slightly bigger so it fits more hand sizes. The original was a little slim for some magicians.

HERE'S WHAT HAPPENS:

A coin is borrowed from a spectator and initialed on both sides. You then introduce a little hunk of clay. The spectator rolls the clay into a ball. The coin is placed on your hand, and the clay is alongside it. Then, impossibly, a clay hand darts out of your hand and snatches up the coin. You open your hands to reveal the ball of clay has returned to normal, the hand has gone back inside. You then immediately hand the clay to the spectators so they can open it and discover their signed coin inside.

Franken-Doh works with any currency and comes with everything you need, including a specially designed silicone hand that has been color-matched to one of the most popular modeling clays in the world, so you’ll never be at a loss to perform this incredible effect. The hand also comes with a special silicone band so that it can be custom fit to even the slenderest of fingers. Perfect for any age group, this effect transcends language and astonishes everyone who sees it. Bring your magic to life with Franken-Doh by Roddy McGhie.

Received this trick today and performed it after watching the very direct tutorial. I showed it to several adults and children. This plays really well with both. The look on people’s faces when the hand grabs their coin is priceless. They think the trick is over but when you tell them to immediately take the ball of magic clay and open it to find their signed coin they are still taking in the fact that a little hand just grabbed their coin. This is not only fun to do but even more fun watching people laugh at this silly effect. Is it a coin trick? Not sure but i really like this fun bit of magic. Roddy you have another hit on your hand. Pun intended. I have all your effects and thought Little Door could not be topped. But this little gem has done it. Keep up the good work.

I know exactly where this is going in my show. Report this review

After shows I usually have a handful of audience members who come up to chat or just to say they had a good time. For a long while I've been seeking that intimate "encore piece" I can perform for these folks, which is something special to say thanks with, and that is entirely different than anything they've seen in my show. Franken-Doh by Roddy McGhie is that spare "pocket trick" I've been seeking!

It's not so much a case of "How did he do it?" But rather one of "Did I just see what I thought I saw?"

Roddy McGhie is a good teacher, and his Scottish lilt adds to his charm. The tutorial is just over 20 minutes and avoids annoying rambling.

This is an out-of-the-box performance piece that you'll need creativity to incorporate, but well-worth it!

Incomplete For 2.0 Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 1st, 2024
My beef comes when a product is released in a 2.0 version, but then leaves out the most basic gimmick that allows the trick to be performed. In this case I am referring to a simple little thing that could have been included that will allow the hand to grab the coin here in the USA. Unlike some comments in the discussion, no it is not attached to the other prop. How simple and inexpensive it would have been to include, especially at this price point. What a disappointment and smudge on the creator's rep.

Overpriced Report this review

To have them find their signed coin in a ball of Playdoh YOU'VE been holding is no big deal.

Yes, it's cute and funny, but there's little magic.

I had purchase the little hand, but this one is much more fun to show a small child. I throughly enjoy this trick.
