This might be my first ever pre-order. I can't believe nobody's talking about it yet.

The visual looks fantastic. If I understand the method correctly, then I'm curious if the produced object can be openly taken off the box and handed right out.

Last product of his was my worst product I have ever got. Hope this is different but am going to wait for reviews.

Olivier reached out and was really courteous and apologetic for the product I got that had gimmick problems. He Seems like a great guy that stands behind all his products including in customer support. I'll review this as soon as I get a copy.

Does anybody have this yet? I'm wondering how freely the card box can be handled prior to the production. In the trailer, we never see the card box being handled and written on before the production.

I like that the hand display is shown empty prior to the production.

Just watched the trailer for this one, and it definitely looks good in trailer form. I didn't have any audio playing, so not sure how much of a factor that might be?
Anybody pick this up yet? |

The trailer includes too many cuts for my liking. My concern is how natural it is getting into the reveal position (where the left hand grip of the box looks rather unnatural). I also wonder how clean you are after performing a switch. Not to mention if your hands are clean or smudged in erasable marker.
Too many unknowns so I too will be waiting for some impartial reviews. |

Hey guys just got this!! I gotta put together the gimmick (some diy required) and I'll throw up a review as soon as I get a bit to play around with it and test it out.

In the demo, the way the hand approaches the deck feels too suspicious in my opinion. I love the concept, but I suspect I’d feel this is too unnatural for me to use it. That being said, I’m still watching the reviews on this one!

Do you need to build somthing, or it comes ready for action? I really hate to pay on somthing that I need to start shopping and building after

So I finally had a chance to make the gimmick and got a chance to play around with this. I'm gonna be honest, when I watched the download I was a little worried.To me it didn't really seem workable and it seemed very angley. I decided to put together the gimmick and see how it actually played. It took about 5 minutes for me to make the gimmick but if you have no experience with making this type of thing it will probably be closer to 30 minutes. I practiced the "move" (gimmick does everything) and it looked super good in the mirror. I wasn't for sure if it would still be workable so I went to my mom to show because she will call me out if it's a garbage trick or looks bad. So I did it for her, and she loved it. I tried again with different objects at different parts of the day and she didn't catch anything and was impressed everytime. However, I would not recommend performing this to the same person multiple times. I played around with the handling as well and adapted it so I can hold normally and perform it. Olivier's handling works just find but I like holding it how I usually hold a deck of cards and that is an option if you are concerned about that kind of thing.
The pros of this trick would be: Very visual, can produce about anything (anything that can fit on your drawing) there is no palming, and angles are better then I thought( probably about 95 degrees). The cons : I don't believe this can be used anytime like the ad copy says, the get ready is really short but you can't do it in front of your spectators. I can only really see this being used as an opener. The box also can't be examined before or after the change. All in all I think this trick has a lot of good points and it's something I can see myself using especially if someone wants to just see something really quick. All in all I rate this a 4/5. Let me know if you guys have any questions |

The reset is like literally 5 seconds, just can't be done in front of your spectators. I think it would be a really good opener for table hopping
