My guess is if you're considering buying this trick, you're a fan of Lennart Green. I myself am a
huge fan of his work but this trick is a sad sorry disappointment if you are hoping to learn
something special. Don't get me wrong, this is a wonderful presentation for laypeople but any
amateur magician with some common sense and two sticks to rub together could duplicate this trick;
you are essentially spending $35 on props and sloppy instruction that could be found elsewhere if
you're the least bit resourceful, and if you've watched the demo and made an educated guess how it's
done you are probably right. Don't waste your time on this, you'd be better off investing in
Lennart Green's Master File instead.

This effect could have been MUCH better! It would have been much better if it was designed somehow
as a giveaway you can easily make in advance. I have a good idea, but I don't want to give away the
trick. Even the explanation DVD comes across like they are laughing at how stupid someone might be
to actually buy this lame DVD.

It could have been much stronger. The concept was not thought out well. On the DVD, the performers
are snickering about how ridiculously weak the effect is.

Ehhh- Lennart is a genius with cards but this effect is a disappointment given its price. Should
have been a $5 download. You probably have already figured it out anyway and you'd be correct- basic
sleight of hand 101. The supplied prop is not necessary to the effect- you can obtain this prop at
at hobby store for pennies and really the idea is not specific to the prop anyway.

Okay, okay. Yes, I immediately knew what the figurine was. But, the cool part was brainstorming
after the DVD was viewed. At first, I went out and bought cigarette papers and then white tissue. I
also bought plastic paint pots to put the figurine in after the reveal. But the cool part was trying
modeling clay, realizing it was way too sticky and switching to Playdoh. The figurine is in a ball
and another is handed out, flattened and rolled back into a ball. It is then switched for the
"secret other" and as the Playdoh is removed, it is added to the concealed ball. Yes, the final ball
is a bit bigger, but I have not gotten "caught". I ordered white bunnies and this looks great, too.
If you like giving things away at a small price as a keepsake, I highly recommend this effect!
Kind of knew what it was when I purchased it but it fits in my act nicely. Mostly a nice bit that is
more story and audience involvement than just a card change. the magician has to make it an
"astonishment moment".
So cool LoVe it.! Ppl freak out at what you've done.. Big smiles.!
