The box quality is ok , but not the best . Bottom flap kept opening on its own so I had to super
glue it to keep it shut . The flap on top of the box near the gimmick was coming apart also which
was ok with me because I wanted to re-position it so the gimmick that is inside will be harder to
see . After I re-glued the flap , the gimmick inside was less noticeable . Over all the box quality
is ok but not the best because it is not fully examinable like they want you to believe in the video
trailer and anyone who looks inside for too long will see the inside of the box does not look normal
. Since I use the box for parlor magic the box works perfect because I display it from distance .
Don't buy the box if you don't know how box works because you will be disappointed . First go on
youtube and find out the secret then decide if it is something that will work for your routine then
buy it if you think it is something you must have . That is what I did so I am very happy with my
purchase because I use it for parlor magic and not close up magic . It might work for some table
hopping magic also as long as no one exams it .

This is a great concept however on mine and one that a friend got recently,the gimmick is visible
near the top of the case near the lid.If this item was made more carefully,it would be fantastic.

Very cool little device.
Well made.
I think people that are not happy with the device, are
a tad worried over nothing. If you don't try and use it like a metamorphosis box (?) found in a
kid's magic kit, I don't see the problem. Maybe if you perform for family, and they're used to
grabbing your stuff..well, good luck I guess. But under most any (even very informal) situations, I
just don't see an issue. Even a modicum of audience management, and presentation, will leave the
case 100% un noticed.
Great little thing to have on you, if you're carrying cards anyway.
I'd recommend that you watch the Alakazam reviews/demo's on this if you're considering it.
Loosley has a fast, fun, demo that pushed me to buy it. Had I seen only the ad copy, I wouldn't have
given it a look. Not at all. Obviously I'm glad I did, and hope my fellow Magi will be as well.
For my fellow mentalists..this can play huge, with even a little thinking.
All the best
folks.

Perhaps by expectations are too high after purchasing other products like the ‘Boom Box’… but the
M-Case product as a whole could stand some real improvements.
(1) The product itself is
clever BUT cannot be setup while removing a deck from the box in front of your audience.
(2) The
trigger is fine but can be finicky if you are even the slightest bit sloppy with your touch.
(3)
The biggest issue are the instructions. Really, just pay someone the extra five bucks whose first
language is English! Really tough to understand what the guy is saying—or at least ADD english
SUBTITLES!
This is an amazing utility device! I had to trim it a little to my comfort level, but I could
probably never go without this case ever again! I’ve had many of cases to assist in effects, but
this one tops them all!!! Well done!!
Let me start by saying that I purchased this Trick elsewhere, but wanted to leave a review here,
since I do most of my purchasing with penguin, and would like to pass on my experience here where I
shop. That being said, the trick itself is amazing. The visual, is quite a stunner and is very easy
to pull off. Mickael goes into approximately 12 different routines for the effect, and I myself
started thinking of endless ideas to go along with them. Once you learn the secret it takes seconds
for you to be able to start doing the trick, and doesn't necessarily require much practice.
The one drawback that M-Case has, and I've seen numerous other reviews where this is mentioned,
is that if you dont align the edges of the box properly the gimmick can be seen while displaying
your "empty" card case. This is easily hidden by your hands as the way that you display the card box
allows your fingers to fall in a natural position covering the VERY SMALL part with gimmick can be
seen. The glue strip provided on your card case to glue down the box is not very sticky (luckily),
and I was able to reposition mine so that I do not have to rely on my fingers covering a certain
portion of the box.
All in all, M-case is a really cool gimmick/Utilitt device that is
easy to use, looks amazing, and takes zero practice to learn. For the visuals you obtain I think the
small drawback can be overlooked and I highly recommend getting this product. Especially if you like
vanishing/transposing cards, coins, money, billets, business cards, or any number of small flat
objects. Kudos mickael.
This effect is very strong and useful. The only thing that I disagree with that is said by the
creator is that the spectator can examine the box. The spectator could very likely be able to
quickly glance in the box to make sure that no other items are in it, but if the spectator were to
take a look in it for longer than a couple of seconds, I think that the spectator would probably see
the gimmick. Besides that, I definitely recommend this to magicians of all skill levels as long as
you can manage your audiences attention moderately well.
This is the most beautiful thing ı have ever seen in my life
