it just looks too plastic and it's a bit yellow.

The reason I'm only giving the Royal Thumb Tips 3 stars is that I feel that these particular thumb tips are in the "middle" so to speak. While they aren't cheap...they aren't as good as original Vernet's in my opinion. If you are looking for a less expensive alternative...these are the way to go. They do the job...but if given a choice...I'd stick with my original Vernet. I purchased about 19 of these as a giveaway for my magic club and they were well received...I didn't want to pay any more than I had to and these fit the bill.

Nice color, nice size for my thump!
You can easily do the dollar change, vanishing handkerchief and much more!

A must prop for all kind of magicians.

This thumb tip is a little stiffer and a little shinier than Vernet's hard plastic thumb tip, which I'm using as the Gold Standard. I prefer the look and feel of Vernet's, but in truth, it's a small difference. If you're on a budget, this will do; if you can afford a couple extra bucks, I recommend Vernet's over this.

I have seen several product claim to be “the next thumb tip.” It just isnt the case. Used for 100+ years and still unknown to most of our audience. That alone is impressive. Magic or Mentalism it can be used for so many things, unquestionably the strongest tool in our art.
As for Vernet’s, it is the best I have found but I don’t have a magic store near by that I can go into and try out different ones. This is the best I have seen but it is just a bit small for me, still functions perfectly since I have never been caught using it I suppose. The “in your face” Thumb tip looks so appealing regardless of the additional cost but the review there say that it is too small. I still recommend!!!

These are well made as good as a Vernet and they last for a long time under regular use. I have several and for the money you can not beat the quality of these TT's. Hold a 6 inch silk perfectly and great for a bill switch and more effects than can be listed.

This is a must-have for magicians. A thumbtip is the most versatile prop you could ever desire. Vanish almost anything...produce almost anything. Change a 5$ bill into a hundred...the effects possibel with a thumb tip are limited only by your imagination.

If you don't have one, you need one. If you have one..buy another...in case you lose yours!

Really well made. It will last you a long long time. It is transparent enough so that it will match different skin colors .

Hi! This is your official PenguinMagic reviewer, B_Magic.

A good thumbtip is always something good to have on you, and so I always recommend one. That said, it's not something that I perform with very often, in fact, I'd say these days I rarely perform with a tip. But it is a versatile tool that can be used in countless effects, and perhaps a tool I'll use more regularly for an effect I don't do yet. I will never get rid of my thumbtips for this reason, and will always recommend any magician to have one, at least stored away somewhere, for use sometime.

There really is a lot of miracle-status things you can do with a thumbtip. If you don't already have one, cough up the dough and get one today.
