This is the best smoke device ever, and possibly the best magic device. Period.
Mystery
Smoke is the best smoke device, much better than VAPR and Pure Smoke. All the setups are great, and
the angles are awesome too. I have 0 complaints about this, all my audience members loved this.
(especially Sarah, she freaked the f*** out.)
I got 2 more gigs with this, this is truly
amazing. I use an anniversary waltz routine with this, which hits hard. You can find it on Murphy's
Magic if you want, it's free. The no-cartridge feature is incredible, using only water based
vapor-liquid which is harmless. You get 3 setups. A sleeveless setup, the vanish setup, and the
classic setup. All of the angles are amazing, but there is one angle issue with the vanish setup,
but that's only if someone is under you. Even so, it can be hidden. The setup for all of them is not
complicated at all, but you need a bit of some art and crafts with the sleeveless setup. Remember,
though, the vanishing setup can also be done sleeveless and, in my opinion, is the best one.
This is the next step in smoke magic.

As a member of sansminds and a creature of smoke magic and many more grateful magic devices I must
say this is the 3rd best magic device out there but however this is nothing like vapr by sansminds
if you want a armband one with a remote control and that can be done in distance then get vapr by
sansminds or sansminds smoke watch. It's way better then Joao's smoke watch... But if your
looking for sleeveless smoke and a gecko gimmick then get this... I do enjoy it it is very good and
strong. it is not like others it's a vanishing kit that gives smoke... I've seen
#VonWolkanShadowMaster do something like this live in Vegas

I think the idea is wonderful but I was disappointed in how little time it lasted. While it's true
than you can buy some parts, the lowest quality part is not sold separately. The wire connected to
the tr*******r broke the instant I first connected it, now for me to use it I have to move the wire
for it to make contact. It's not reliable. I feel scammed. I have to also congratulate nick locapo
for his very well made video. The Gimmick is great. I love it but someone should've been more
careful thinking on the durability of the wire.

I was excited when my shipment arrived. Once I got the box open my first thought was, "oh wow this
is complicated." Everything comes disassembled and individually bagged along with instructions in 3
different languages. After watching the tutorial things seemed less complicated and I was able to
put everything together and blow some smoke. 3 setups are included and although you can perform a
"sleeveless" production of smoke don't expect to do it in a t-shirt. The materials used to make
this thing seem a bit cheap. It honestly reminds me of an outdated cloud vape that's been modified.
And for $250 this most definitely should have came with a routine. If it had come with a good
routine then I may have called the price reasonable as I find great value in good routines. To bad
Mark Mason didn't debut this product instead. I know he wouldn't have let us down.
All in
all the product does produce smoke. But the demo video is sadly misleading. This would be worth
the buy at $75... maybe $100.

I am a local "magical" Santa Claus and I've purchased each "Smoke" device that's come along in the
last decade. This is the best, which is not saying too much because it is the LATEST to come along.
But what I CAN say about Mystery Smoke is that it's the only one I have every actually USED – and I
love it.
That said, I wish the off-switch was easier to get to, since you really only want to
use it once per "visit". Several times I've posed for photos and suddenly noticed that I triggered
the pressure-plate by mistake. Also, I wish the "classic" (wrist mount) and the hand-escape
utilities came in white (or at least a light skin-tone). It would also help if the additional parts
(e.g., buttons) were less expensive. Finally, you must give the longer tubes a little practice time
since the "puff" is not instantaneous nor pre-measured (which is actually a GOOD thing).

Ok sooooo... I'd like to start off by saying this is THE best device I've used ever. The smoke
created is so thick and continuous and controlled that I HAD TO give it FIVE STARS!!
Why is it
not remote activated? The restriction of the cable is an extreme bummer. Pyro Fireball thrower is
compact and remote activated... Will Tsai's Device is remote activated... why is this cable
restricted?!
This would be hands down the top Device for years to come if it was remote
activated. Everything else is perfect! The housing "could" be more compact but it works absolutely
fine.
All three hook ups are great. I've rigged them slightly different than the tutorial shows
but that's why we do what we do... not to copy but to make it work in the way that's best for each
of us.
I spent the first month just making smoke all over and the juice is still basically full.
Please suggest they make this wireless and also discount those that bought the original when
they put it up for sale. If this was remote activated there would be endless possibilities for
performance...

The devices and methods supplied were superior, HOWEVER, several points stick in my craw: 1--buying
extra hardware and certain extras has been EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. Even Penguin Magic only differed me
to other websites, which did NOT satisfy my needs 2--for such a substantial purchase, one should
HAVE A CHOICE to get a DVD or a download for this item....you don't have that option, and I prefer
DVDs. 3--Info on cleaning, maintenance,and troubleshooting should have been a staple in the
purchase. When I contacted Penguin, I was given other sites to sort through. Shouldn't it ALL be
available through Penguin? I STILL have not gotten answers and the correct extras, 3 months after my
original order. The effect, though extraordinary, suffers, if you can't even use it without proper
buyer backup. I hope these bumps may be smoothed out.

Nice smoke. Many more options than Vapr but my unit just as noisy as Vapr. Find for most
environments. But if you are looking fro pin drop silence to make your smoke might be a issue.

Just got my package and for now. I think its one of the best smoke devices. Now, I have Pure Smoke
and VAPR. Out of the 3 that I have. This one will be used more often than the others. I said for now
above because I bet the newer version of this, when it comes out, will be a bit more compact in
design.
Pros: very flexible in the ways of wearing the device. I really like the sleeveless
versions. Possibilities on the use of the sleeveless methods are only limited by the imagination.
There is also the classic setup as well, but everyone now a days knows that. So, with the sleeveless
method available on this device makes it worth while
Comes with everything you need and
every part of the device can be replaced!
can be customized greatly
Cons: a bit
on the expensive side, but still a great product.
Also, I think the activation switch is a
bit sensitive. Even when my arm is relaxed it still goes off here and there. I think I just have to
mess around with the placement of the switch a bit more. Then this would no longer be a con. open to
suggestions on this.
Wish it came with wireless switch like some other product does.
Hopefully in the next version.
All in all. I think like I said for now. This is one great
smoke device. Can't wait to see the next version of this device.
