For the price and ease of use, this effect is hard to beat. Yes, it basically does one type of
effect, but the effect plays so big it's hard to say anything against this. You will have to create
your own gimmick supplying two decks of cards (or actually just the two boxes), but then you will
have an incredible miracle in your hands.
The handling on this is great, and you can indeed
have the spectator pull their signed card from the box (with a little help from you). No, they can't
examine the box, and you can't really use it to hold the deck or much else without a lot of angle
control and gentle handling, but those are minor complaints. The teaching on the DVD is easy to
follow and you'll have the gimmick constructed in about 20 minutes.
Once you begin with
this, you'll find a number of uses for this. Closing an ambitious card routine is a natural choice,
but just about anything using a single-card reveal could be a possibility. And this is one of those
that could actually fool you while performing it...even though you know the secret. It looks
amazingly real.

Im not one to write a review but this trick and concept is pure genious. I have no idea why there
aren't more reviews but to think someone sat down and thought this ish out it deserves more. I like
my hard earned money, every cent and there have been times where ive gotten a trick ive spent a lil
money on and just been let down, this is not the case. You seen the demo, it is what it
is......ADD TO CART......your welcome .....

I was extremely satisfied with this. XBOX is very clever and sure did fool me. Very practical, and
thus I've already used it in my repertoire. Trust me, this trick will fit in anyone's repertoire.

I admit I was a bit skeptical at purchasing this illusion. I've bought things from Penguin before
that have claimed to be super easy only to find that they are not.. at least not for me. This
however is in fact easy. Like someone else commented, "It does require you to customize a box..."
you'll need two that match. For those who are not already into cards this might be the only flaw but
easily fixed with a quick trip to Wal-Mart.

I don't care what anyone says,this is the best card to box ever made. It is the easiest and most
visual card to box routine you could perform in a real world situation. It takes about 5 minutes to
get used to the gimmick. After that, it is pretty much up to your imagination. The dvd is very well
made and the instructions were very, very easy to follow. I would say this is my favorite purchase
of 2013 so far. The only downside is that I have found trouble with using it just as a regular card
box. Sometimes the gimmick can get in the way when putting the deck back in the box; But other than
that, it is golden, a real worker.

I'll have to give this yet another 5 star rating!...This is a very creative and well thought out
project. It is somewhat similar to another trick on the market but full credit is given for this on
the DVD. As far as I'm concerned, this is much better. To me, the most amazing feature of this
method is that there isn't any faking or fumbling around when drawing the card from the box. This
is excellent!....a ton of possibilities with this little jewel!!!

This is a nice concept, gimmick works, fools people.
Now: The box can't be examined, the
problem is, the people want to see the box. The box is so gimmicked!!!!! I don't like these tricks,
where everything is gimmicked so much that nothing can be examined, so not for me, not for a worker,
to much pocket space for one effect!

What a creative effect this is! It is just great! This is a must have for anyone who might want to
do card tricks. It does require you to customize a box, so you won't be able to do it with a
borrowed box, but your customized box is now a very clever utility device. All thumbs up on this
one!

I want to try this with Kennedy's Mystery Box...you'll have cards penetrating to all kinds of
impossible places!
Yes, the box can't be examined, hence the 4 stars, but I haven't had
anyone grab for the box (though they'll look at the OUTSIDE to make sure there aren't any flaps or
anything weird about it) but I guess it could happen.
Very clever!
