Don't get me wrong this does look amazing but why does it not come with a non gimmicked version as
well? It would be so much stronger if I could let people examine the screen after. Alvo said his
came with one. Would it have been so hard to include one for people actually buying this item? let's
face it. there will be a decent number of people who would like to examine the screen. but if I
can't switch it out that kind of sucks. I like to be clean so I shy away from gimmicks. this is a
prime example why I tend not to use them.

Well, I actually ordered this trick, but was somewhat disappointed. The quality of the actual
gimmick was cheap, and after a few days the backing came off. The plastic material also scratches
easily. When I first got it I was amazed! I thought it was the most ingenious thing ever, but once
I started showing it around, and carrying it in my pocket, I realized it was not quite as good as I
thought. Looks amazing! but made cheaply.

Three words ADD TO CART!!!!!!!!!! This trick is probably my favorite. You don't even need to look at
the dvd it is so easy. I do it any time i get the chance. At the end i like to give the signed card
away as a souvenir its a great way to finish. The reason i rated it 4 stars is because you can't
hand out the wow gimmick at the end and they do not include a ungimmicked wow with it. I don't know
why the original wow is dearer as for wow 2.0 comes with a dvd
All in all though you should buy
it they don't even want to examine the gimmick they are so amazed. BUY IT!!!!!!

another way I've discovered to use this prop, and it has blown many minds already...is that I tell
them it is a miniature brain scan...I force the card that appears in my wow 2.0...I tell them to
hide the card in their pocket or somewhere...then I gently rub my wow lightly on their head, and
while doing so I hit the right place to make their card appear. So when I bring the brain scanner in
front of them they see the image was taken right out of their brain!

This trick is the greatest. If you are looking for something that you can buy and use right away,
this is it. There aren't very many "in your face" tricks that don't take a lot of slights or
something that takes a lot practice. This is one. I did it for my girlfriend in about 5 minutes
after watching the DVD.
Face up or face down there are tons of trick options that are
available.
I gave it a four out of five for not adding the examinable WOW. I hate getting a
trick that requires me to get something more that I don't find out about until I get the trick home.
That being said, it is well worth the price.

I already own this device and it is everything you are hearing and then some. The Magician still has
to know some card technique. If the Magician can do the Ambitious Card, then the magician can
immediately incorporate WOW into his repertoire. It's quite ingenious how it works. I really doubt
anyone could home make one. So if'n I was you, I'd be for getting me one for sure. You won't be
disappointed.

I bought mine about 10 years ago at a magic convention. I don't use it all the time, but still have
it and it works fine. Back then I paid $50.00 to the creator of the trick. The newer ones might not
be the same quality. I have never had any one ask to examine the sleeve. I do the trick, show both
sides and put it away. Done!
This is an ingenious trick and extraordinarily powerful! It's also pretty easy to do. If you can
do a double lifts and breaks, you can do this. As others mentioned, the problem is that you don't
get everything you need. Without an ungimmicked sleeve, you can't let people inspect! That's
crazy! After I got it and realized the problem, I figured I already spent the money, so I bought
the ungimmicked card. $13.00 on Penguin. Whatever. It's still a great trick, but realize that
you'll probably want to spend 13 bucks more from the get go.
As someone new to magic, only
performing for friends, the other issue with the face up version is that you can't repeat the trick.
I suppose the effect is so good, one performance, letting it sink in, is fine. Still, thinking of
buying a second different gimmick.
Easily scratched. Take care and protect it.
