Wow, I'm surprised this finally came to fruition. I thought they might have given up on it.

I have a feeling the effect will be on PaulHarrisPresent.com
Once I see a video and hear some good reviews...its mine. No questions. Mine...no one can have it...all mine... Look away. Haha
I've been training these cards since they were small.

I found the demo of "Little Man." It looks awesome, I hope the trick looks like this in person.

Oh how predictable and gullible we magicians can be at times. At least it wasn't bad haircuts, shades with an abomination of music in the background

Does it have to be a little guy? For instance could you make just a ball of stuff & have it start to roll slowly across the table...maybe more of a PK angle?

Is the effect that clean? It sounds like a pipe dream.

My uninformed assumption is that the bag is where the dirty workings are if only for a moment. Of course this is absolute speculation. But the beauty of it is the fact that the audience will fully suspect the little man and nothing else. I imagine the gift bag will be a prop that will need some minor justification, but will take little heat. I was hoping the bag we be as unassuming as a paper bag, but it says 'gift bag'. The presentation practically writes itself on this one. Sans review, I stand poised to be the first to order this. A full review will follow. But I will say this... This will be a beautiful effect, I fully trust paul and angelo.

The gift bag will be a plain black bag.

Really, then by description alone, method is lost on me. Further adding to the thrill factor of being the first to place an order. Has anyone seen the effect performed?

Heres an interesting tidbit. I was going thru some of my dust collectors and found some of my old booklets by Tony 'Doc' Shiels and Charles W. Cameron. Those of you who know the names know the type of magic. (Macabre and Bizarre and Weird) I was flipping thru the pages of Handbook Of Horror by Mr. Cameron and I came across something that caught my attention. It was an effect called Manikin Macabre. In it a small box with a lump of modeling clay is shown, then the clay is formed into a rough human figure. A Few incantations later (along with a few sleights) the magi stands well away from the clay and...... it takes a step! Then a few more steps and stops. The magi incants some more and then tears the figure apart and rolls it back into a ball of clay. This was printed in the late 1960's.
This does not SEEM as clean as Little Man, But it sounds similiar. I hope that little man uses a different type of gimmick and I hope it is as clean as it says. If so I will buy it. I might buy it anyway as it sounds like a nice effect. HOWEVER.... I have a thought of caution in my own mind. Just my 2 and a half cents. Let the flaming begin!!!!! (lol!!) Poof! -J-

Hey Judah,
Yes, but as you know, since you are privy to the method, it is basically unworkable. A lot of the bizarre magic you read in Invocation are pipedreams. I would dare say that that version has never been performed. James ps As far as Doug mentioning there is nothing new under the sun, this whole idea of animating a lump of clay goes way back to the bible. Here is a link if anyone is interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golem Quote: On 2009-08-13 22:15, Judah Vee wrote:

I would be hard pressed to disagree with you James. Which is why I HOPE the methods are WAAAAYYYYY different. But Camerons method could be used in a dark, candle lit, chanting in the background, enviroment. As I think it was meant to be used. But you are also correct in that a lot of Camerons, Shiels, Hilfords, Etc effects can be hard to pull off.
Poof! -J-
