As you know, I have dedicated years of my professional career in an attempt to find the perfect drawing duplication. I believe this is it.

Imagine: Your spectator makes a drawing on a single piece of card with no need to lean on any writing surface...they seal it into a regular pay envelope themselves. All whilst you are across the room and facing away... They place this envelope in their pocket with you at a distance and facing away. You know with certainty what they have drawn. Every time.

Yes, they really do seal their drawing inside the envelope themselves.
Yes, that very envelope and their drawing go into their own pocket.
No, you never see their drawing or touch it until after you have read their mind.
No, they never show it to you.
No, you are not guessing, this is a real method.
No, there are no electronics.
Yes, you can leave the room as they draw and not return until it is inside of the envelope.
Yes, it is completely self-contained.
Yes, they can keep everything.
Yes, you can perform this in any language.
Yes, it only uses normal office stationery.
Yes, It is that good!

Complete with a foreword from New York’s leading Mentalist: Marc Salem.

Purchasers will receive a complete set of professional-grade materials that have been expertly sourced, produced and tested and a detailed and professionally produced instructional booklet.

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 27th, 2022
Wow! I just spent $200.00 for maybe $10.00 worth of materials. The idea is good, (that’s why I upped the rating by one star).

The ad copy is very deceiving. An additional step was completely left out of the demonstration. The totally hands off approach is not at all true. Had they shown a full, uncut, performance, I’m sure many magicians would have shied away.

I truly believe anyone who shells out $200.00, of their hard earned money, will be deeply disappointed when their CNTR-C package arrives.

I truly hope Penguin publishes this review. Their customers deserve honesty in the trailers, especially for a product this expensive.

Very Disappointing! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 1st, 2022
Let me go on record to say that I have never in the history of ever left a negative review on any magic effect I have purchased. AND, I really do not want to leave one now. BUT, because of the cost associated with this one, I feel a responsibility to give my true feelings about this one.

This, *FOR ME* was/is a total let down. I feel this way for 3 reasons.

1. PRICE. Generally, I believe you should be able to charge as much as you like for your products. people will decide for themselves if they value it enough to purchase. And, I still support that. However, it is MY OPINION that this is absurdly over priced. I would place this at $50.00 for a reasonable price. Because you receive a pretty good supply of envelopes and other "material", on the high end, I might feel $75.00 would be a fair price as well. Anything over that, I think is a lot more then just a bit much!

2. The trailer is not completely honest. It leads you to believe that something is possible that is NOT really possible. It is not quite as "hands free, you never touch it" as you are lead to believe. I will not say any more then that.

*IN MY OPINION* there are MUCH better methods that does not cost nearly what this costs. PROTEUS gets much closer to what this promises, and is by far a better price point.

For some, this might be the perfect answer for the right person. But, it is NOT for me.

I don't know what to say Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 3rd, 2022
First of all, I want to say two points. The first point is not to buy on impulse. I bought two sets directly and spent $400, because I think the effect is very worth it. I bought nearly $100000 props in 10 years (it's no exaggeration). This is a very few that make me feel really unworthy Because the price is too inconsistent with the actual product. The second point is that it can't work perfectly, and sometimes it has something to do with people's writing strength. 400 dollars, It's sad,

Way overpriced... Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 2nd, 2022
The method is not a new idea. The choreography may be different, but the method has been used elsewhere. In my opinion this is absurdly overpriced. Maybe if it had been priced at $25 or $30 it would have been okay. A somewhat different handling of an existing method. There are alot of ways to do a drawing duplication. Peeks, switches, impression pads, psy forces, etc. All have their pros and cons. To spend $200 on a different handling just does not make any sense to me.

Shameless price tag for what it is Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 2nd, 2022
First off, I bought most of my everyday magic stuff at Penguin’s for years and I value their customer service. That’s why I hope this review gets published. As a vivid collector and user of imp pads and imp principles I was hard on the trigger for Ctrl-C until I was warned by a fellow from our local magic circle.
The bad news: Ctrl-C is nothing new. Heck, it doesn’t even offer a creative twist to the old method that was first published in 2010 but maybe around even earlier.
I know what I’m talking about I have bought many similar products. They all use the same phenomenon in different clever ways. Ctrl-C offers ZERO that I didn’t already knew or tried. Also, the ad is misleading and doesn’t show a full performance for a reason.

Buyer Beware Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 6th, 2022
I received Control C and was disappointed in various ways. 1) First off the price is not justified for what you get. 2) When I spend $200 on a trick I don't want to have to do "arts and crafts" to make it work. It should have come all ready to perform for $200. And yes, this is not a new method. Video deceiving and does not live up to advertisement of " You will know exactly what they drew" with your back turned. Not the case. Not happy with this purchased.

The idea is excellent and you can have this as an every day carry. I have down graded my stars as I do think it is over priced. However the effect is good.
