Like a lot of people said rattled was a huge disappointment. It was so painfully obvious

I can't believe someone wouldn't love SloMotion! Maybe mine is the exception, but it's really quiet. It's definaetly my best $40 gadget that I have. Zombie Magic... I thought you made this gimmick?

I quite disliked Vertigo.

My vote for 2012 (at least so far...who knows what other duds I will purchase) would be Shift Key. I wonder who, if anyone, can keep this key straight for any length of time. I couldn't even get mine completely straight.

It took some back-and-forth emails, but I finally got a refund.

I almost bought Slo-motion but fortunately got to see (hear?) another magician do it before I made the purchase. In a crowded hotel room, it sounded like a radio controlled helicopter taking off with an electric toothbrush strapped to it.

Must admit to being very disappointed with timeless due to the prep. being lost very easily. I thought it would be exceptional but can't get past this flaw. Happy keep working with it tho.

My problem with timeless is after using it a couple times, it seems obvious to me that a spectator can look at the watch and see whats going on. I won't say more due to exposure

Not even close to obvious. It's about as perfect an illusion as there is (if your prep is decent). I must have performed Timeless on at least 100 occasions so far. The spectator sees nothing except what they expect to see. Everything looks as it should.

(Early on) I showed it to a couple of well-known magicians at the Magic Castle, they looked quite closely, and had no CLUE as to method. Be bold. No one will catch you out. Reactions are superb. I present it purely as an influence routine.

LOL


They do come out with killer stuff, maybe this year was not there year?

" I must have performed Timeless on at least 100 occasions so far. The spectator sees nothing except what they expect to see..."......Gabelson please let me know how you get round the problem I mention above. If u've performed 100's of times you must have a way round this. Pm me if ok ? Thanks.

I'm intested as well Gabelson. Please post or PM if you have a solution. Thanks!

Use a watch box (the type you receive when buying a new watch). Or roll up your sleeves.

I really enjoyed Rattled and worked very well....no problems

It looked like unpratical garbage in the Demmo!

And when it does work, it is so unimpressive.

Hi all. Just a word to say I have to disagree with the haunted feedback. In my experience it is a reliable and fairly dramatic hands off effect. I use it almost as per the card on box demo and it works well. Maybe just persevere and give it another go. Always worth it when you know other( s) have success with it. Regards, ward.

I wasnt quite stupid enough to buy little man, so my two are

Sidewinder: all-time most agnly effect ever

Cash-flow: after 2 uses it either breaks or becomes permanently creased.

I was really disappointed with Haunted, unreliable performance on different surfaces that I could not overcome.

I pre-ordered "DRIFT" from "The Merchant of Magic" and thought it could be pretty cool. Boy was I duped!!! It took quite a while to arrive with the DVD case all broken. There were Two "elements" included and most of the time when you receive two elements you are to mix them (which I did) It just ruined the thing. I contacted Dominic at Merchant of Magic, who simply said "Sorry Buddy, you're out of luck!" Even after offering to pay for another set of the "stuff" He said the Ukranian dudes who came up with this idea would not send me another. I opened a dispute with Pay Pal and immediately got an email from the Merchant of Magic saying if I would close the dispute he would have one sent out right away. That was two months ago!!! I think he just wanted to shut me up. Now I can't reopen a dispute and my Bank say's they can't do anything after60 days. First of all The method of this effect is more than Lame! It is just super angular and doesn't even work most of the time! You have to use a hard surface and the "clean up" as well as the set up are pretty obvious. Don't waste your money and Certainly don't do business with this VERY Unhelpful company!!! The WORSTE COMPANY I have ever dealt with!
If you want to do the effect just buy a stick of gum. It's a whole lot cheaper than the $60.00 I paid!

I agree... DRIFT is a wasted purchase for your magic dollars... save your money!

This has been a great thread! Unfortunately we live in an age now where dvd production is so good, the effects can look incredible. Be careful!
