I like this. The prop takes about 5-10 mins of construction, then you're ready to go. The instructions are clear. The actual performance is easy and takes no practice. No angle issues. The appearance is as in the demo.

So, I have a routine in my corporate act that deals with a borrowed bill that travels back in time. However it requires the sudden production of another bill at the end. I have literally been trying to find the right production for years to end this with and nothing was working and had the visual I was looking for.
Before this was released, my friend Jon Kamm sent me a promo video of this from the 2022 Tenyo lineup that was on another dealer site. I didn't know Penguin would be carrying it so I pre-ordered it because I knew that if this looked like the video, it was EXACTLY what I was looking for, despite it being a "Tenyo Toy".
I wish I had come to Pengun 1st because despite pre-ordering it elsewhere, their order got goofed so I order one from Penguin a month later, my less expensive ($12ea with FREE shipping from Penguin vs $15ea plus shipping from the other place) Penguin order still arrived a day before the 1st order!

Anyway, I can't believe I'm saying this but this toy trick is so perfect for my situation that I may actually be able to move my bill routine to the end of my show (and drop my straight jacket finally) and actually close my corporate act with this thing, do to the perfect context in which the effect works!

I did however recently discover that an issue I was having with it at first was due to the handling in the instructions. If you handle it that way, the gimmick sometimes gets stuck, messing up the effect. However, I don't know the origin of the design, but I just saw someone do it in their intro on Fool Us and he held it sideways gripping the edges of the bottom, rather than gripping the body of the envelope while holding it vertical.
It works 100% of the time with the horizontal grip, making it much less nerve wracking to do. That is good since it us purely a gimmick driven prop and you shouldn't have to worry about doing something wrong to goof it up like you do with sleight of hand.

The first one I received was constructed so poorly it couldn't be used. I was sent a replacement, which was not only worse as far as the construction goes, but it didnt even have the necessary gimmick in the box.

I intended this to be the first in my Tento collection, but it'll also be my last.

Pros: The effect looks exactly like the demo, the quality of the props is good and it is easy to do.

Cons: You do have to assemble the gimmick yourself but this only takes a few minutes. Additionally, the gimmick will wear out over time so there is a possibility it could break during performance. The envelope is not examinable (but you probably knew that!) - you'll need to buy a second one if you want to hand out a matching envelope for examination at the end.

Overall: This is one of my favorite's from Tenyo's 2022 lineup and definitely worth the $12!

Brilliant! Easy to perform and fools the audience easily. One on one it bamboozles. Great value. So easy to do yet so hard for others to work out! Buy it, do it!!

Your video demonstration grabbed my attention immediately. I ordered the moment the video stopped. The trick arrived and I was eager to try it out. Unfortunately, the instructions were in Japanese and the link for the instructions in English wasn’t working on my phone. One call the Penguin Magic and I was on my way. The instructions in English were in my email inbox as if by magic. It a very cool trick and so easy to perform.

I like this trick a lot. I have been carrying it all day in my shirt pocket at the ready around the office. I wish there was a place on penguin to discuss this trick with each other, like with their downloaded content. This would solve most issues I came accross in construction and learning.

The big issue is I couldn’t find the English instructions. It comes in Japanese. There is a website link that says it has instructions in English but… I found nothing but more Japanese and other Asian languages. So I followed the pictures. Doable, but there is one moment in construction and preparation that I wish I could make clear for newer magicians. But it works well and it was thought out well.

Load size. I have 8 wrinkled(used) bills in there, each with a small sticky note on the back. (Money comes and goes by Rick lax) This is about as much as it can handle for a load. I’ll be getting crisper bills later on to help have a perfect success rate.

There is a noise, but flicking the plastic (and seemingly durable) envelope or dropping it flat on a table covers the sound well enough. All in all this is a great trick for all skill levels. It is a great way to introduce bills and fill a routine. I’ve got it set up for an impromptu office routine that doubles as a pocket protector! If I had English access in instruction or community, this would be a top review!

And the price is beautiful! Worth the money.

I love products by Tenyo. They are so ingenious and made so well. There are several reasons this product gets four stars. The gimmick isn't examinable afterward, but the cash is. It also doesn't work perfectly every time. There is a hidden gimmick, a common household item, that does the work. Three are included, but eventually, it is something that will need to be replaced, but you can find it at any supply store. The instructions don't mention the size needed.

⭐Way Better quality,gimmick & price than

I was concerned from the DIY , but it just needed a couple of seconds to assemble the Gimmicks, 🔆 you'll get some spares Gimmicks, the gimmick is thick that will last long life, 🟢and the Refills for the gimmick are available at any office stores 50pcs for about 2$ or 4$ .
🟣The envelope is a very good quality material (plastic cardboard) water proof.
🆘️📛I own the gimmick by Smagic that costs highest price & lower quality lots of diy when compared to Tenyo ,
🈯️🈶️🈹️Tenyo is excellent and perfect, i ✅highly recommended buying Tenyo way better & smoother than the other, it has a stopper mechanisms allowing activating
🚫the Smagic gimmick needed to be using a clips, ✅Tenyo has a built in and invisible mechanism, so you could put the envelope at the side or in your pocket showing its empty and when needed at your will you'll be able activating it at your fingertips very clean & smooth .
✔🔴🟠🟢✅Just Buy one or more before it will be out of stock.✔

I grabbed this to possibly use at the start of my Bill to Lemon routine. After receiving it, I am very happy to see that it does look pretty identical to the trailers. Very, very quick and visual - looks quite clean too. I'll definitely be adding it to my shows. There is a limited number of uses to it (pieces will wear over time), but at such a low price, and for an item that I plan to use regularly in paid shows, I have no problem purchasing a bunch of these to have as backup as they wear out. Highly recommended.
