"This really looks like CGI" -Eric Jones

"That’s $%?# Amazing! I’m definitely using this" -Julius Dein

"This is my kind of magic! Very well made and self-contained. It looks how it should, like a Camera trick!" -Nicholas Lawrence

"Super visual. Limited only by your imagination" -Chris Webb

CGI is a system for making 3D objects pop out of a drawing. It's hand-made, and awesome. You can hold the card at your fingertips, there's no palming, no sleights..

It looks so good, you'll be doing it for yourself in the mirror. And you can start performing this the day you get it, because it comes complete with everything you need, including 3 hand-made custom props. A mini Rubik's cube, a die, and a Lego brick, all carefully modified to look and feel totally normal, yet appear out of nowhere.

CGI comes ready to perform straight out of the box. It’s easy to use and the self-contained gimmick does all the work for you.

You receive:

Custom made CGI gimmick
3 ready made gimmicks (Rubiks cube, Dice, Lego)
Custom stickers to use in your routines
Repair kit

Notes from Acar: As you probably guessed, this looks best from directly in front of you. Also, if you're OCD like me, just fold a card before you perform, that way the crease in the middle of the gimmick card won't arouse any suspicion, even if you're working super-close-up. Honestly, this is a non-issue in real-world working conditions, but hey, I said if you're OCD like me. Seriously, let's take a step-back and re-evaluate. Nobody gets suspicious when paper products have creases on them. Stop thinking like a magician! Ignore all of this if you're not working 12 inches in front of peoples' eyeballs. This is a great trick, and a beautifully done kit.
I highly recommend it.

If all of the three gimmicks worked I would give this a 5. The rubick's cube gimmick just doesn't work. The others work great. When I purchase something for that price I expect it to work.

Decent Trick Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 16th, 2017
The trick is decent at best. There are so many ways in which the gimmick can be improved upon. For example the gimmick isn't that strong and it breaks easily. There are better and more modern methods of making the gimmick I don't know why the company didn't implement it. The seam that is mentioned in the description is obvious and instead of making a big deal about it they could have easily fixed it. The "things" holding the device is also a little weak and slips off fairly easily. So many flaws with this. That is what happens when you take short cuts. I do not recommend it.

Very cool visual Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 17th, 2017
I really like this trick. I played with it for hours in front of the mirror and it looks great. I like the die the best - the bright white contrast against the red card is stunningly visual and really makes the illusion work - even in the mirror it looks like it pops off the card. I only wish they made the stickers like vinyl Colorforms (remember those?) so they could be easily swapped out and used over and over... maybe in a 2.0 version? If not that, then please release re-fills.
Anyway,I'm very happy with this purchase and it's well worth the $35.

So much fun! Report this review

This has given me so much joy over the past few days performing it. I've been producing lollipops and my 'sucker punch' gimmick with it. Easy to maintain and reconstruct with a little knowledge. You can even print your own stickers to use. This is a great product that any creative magician will appreciate. 5 stars:)

When I purchase an effect for a specific reason I expect the gimmick to work!!!! The Rubik's cube just doesn't work!!! That's the whole reason I purchased this effect!!! Granted the other gimmicks work great but I wasn't interested in those!!!

Cgi is a very well made piece of kit. You can basically start performing it straight out of the box as everything is made for you. I would suggest watching the explanation first and not do what I did start playing with the gimmick card before finding out how it works properly lol There is so many options on how to use Cgi. Highly recommended an so much fun.

Good effect, preforms great right out of the box. Angle sensitive but in the right setting very strong visual.

WOW CGI Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 8th, 2017
When I first seen CGI on the web I thought, Wow I love the look of this it was different and very Visual too , so few days later it arrived on my door step I opened up the package and my first impression was they have gone all out on the packaging of the product so far it looks good. I opened the box to learn the trick and see what you get with this so you get the special gimmick inside also a mini Rubik's cube a lego peace and finally a dice and some other bits to make the effect look visual too. The download goes in real depth on how to do the effect and also teaches you how to maintain the card gimmick. Overall the effect is very easy to and fun to play with..

Really like the effect. Gimmick has worked well and I'm ok with arts and crafts. The big question remains "how to get into it?" Visually - STUNNING. Would probably be a great table-hopping walk-up effect
