Hi Everyone! Jeff Kaylor here. I wanted to give you the rundown on TKO 2.0. First off, it will be available at penguinmagic.com as well as thekayloroption.com in the near future. We are working close with Penguin in order to provide every customer with a great product as well as great customer service. This will include additional content and forums after you have purchased TKO 2.0.
We will be posting a series of video teasers and demos. The first was posted today. You can check it out here: http://youtu.be/FA9mxB77vmY From our experience, we find that the more we show and tell magicians about TKO 2.0, the more they like it and understand its capabilities... so lets get into more details than I should reveal! TKO 2.0 is a utility device that solves a lot of problems that magicians have. It allows you to visually vanish coins and small objects. You begin and end completely clean with no strings, no magnets, no sleeves or gaffed coins. After the coins are vanished, you will easily be able to retrieve them. You can vanish coins in your hands; with one hand; into your spectators hand; or even onto other objects. You can vanish multiple coins. The angles are great, you can use borrowed coins, and your sleeves can be rolled up. TKO 2.0 lies dormant, and completely undetectable until you need to use it. Built into the design of TKO 2.0 is the Ultimate Card Control Utility (U.C.C.U.).The UCCU -- and now, TKO 2.0 -- allows you to secretly yet flawlessly maintain control over one or more cards while the spectator shuffles the deck. Let me repeat that. You will be able to control cards WHILE the spectator is shuffling the deck. There are no difficult sleights involved. You can even use a borrowed deck. The cards can then be produced from the deck or found in an impossible location, such as an envelope that has been in plain sight the entire time. You can hold out gaffed cards, duplicate cards or force cards and retrieve them onto the deck at any time. This is great for pocket management in walk around situations. The original TKO was designed for coin vanishes. The new TKO 2.0 is MUCH more than that. Over the past few years we have worked, and reworked both its design and its capabilities. We have listened to the feedback of magicians, and have really taken TKO 2.0 to another level. It all starts with the instructions. We have an all new 50 minute dvd with voice over instructions, as well as a booklet that will get you up and running quickly. The setup is quicker and easier because of the included custom pre-threaded sewing kit. We have even included a method that required no sewing whatsoever. Included in the package is both a black and a white TKO, so that you will be prepared for any colored shirt. The design is much more durable, which means it will last a lot longer and it works better with larger coins. There is an adjustable wire opening that can open and close during performance to help conceal the gimmick. This opening is reinforced with plastic inserts that allow the wire to rotate easily without causing damage to the fabric of the utility. The 2.0 design offers a lot of new features starting with the addition of the U.C.C.U. It is designed to work with both tucked-in and un-tucked button up shirts. It has two built in retrievals for tucked-in and un-tucked shirts. If you are wearing an untucked shirt, there is a built in “plinko” system which allows you to vanish coins one after the other while reducing the clink. We have a bunch of new coin techniques on the dvd, including a multiple coin vanish and a one handed coin vanish. There are also new coin routines including a coin matrix, coin in bottle and even a key on headphones. The DVD has new card techniques and applications, such as the ultimate card in envelope. As with all of my products, we offer an online members area where we will be posting new ideas and you can share ideas with other magicians in our forums. As you can tell we are really excited about TKO 2.0! Please let me know if you have any questions. We will be releasing more Teasers and Demos soon! |

Jeff, thanks for the update.
Will this replace my UCCU? |

The UCCU doesn't have a retrieval like it does for coins, I'd think it would replace my UCCU..the TKO is like the UCCU but with a lot more applications

I would not call this a replacement for the UCCU. I still use both depending on where I am performing and what I plan on doing in my performances. The UCCU is a more simple device aimed at card technique, designed to set up easy and transfer without any alteration of your shirt. TKO 2.0 is more complex. It will take a little bit more setup than UCCU but had a lot more applications. Both are great, real world utility devices. It is about having the right tool for the situation that you are in.
