Looks very nice. To clarify, before hitting "buy" button, I love the simplicity of Dai Vernon's color changing deck. So, with this box, can one bring out the "blue" deck from the blue box, do the routine to change the deck to red, put the "red" deck halfway?? into the box, change the box to red and put all away? Does that deck have to be halfway in the box to make the color change? Thanks much!!



That is exactly how I use it. It works very well.

After the change you can show all 6 sides, but before the change only 5

They can be after the change and even before the change up until you pull out the tuck flap . Even then your hand covers that so you can still show all sides except the end your hand is naturally covering . At the end it’s all as it should be and locked in place and you can fairly show it all round .
It’s a great gimmick I doubt anyone who buys this will be disappointed imo Gaz 🙂

I wonder if there is a way to use this in conjunction with David Regal's "Sudden Deck"? Obviously as Deck Switch would have to take place but how cool would that sequence be!


Hi J0urneyjoe,
Although a great idea, both effects uses a completely gimmicked case that was specially made. Each for its own purpose.
Therefore unfortunately, due to the way they function, they can't be combined.

Yes MSD921 you can do all that for sure .
The deck only has to be in halfway purely to get the weight and momentum for the change .
It’s a great gimmick that works well Gaz 🙂


But to do Vernon's Color Changing Deck, you should pull out the deck once to perform it. I don't see how to combine Vernon's trick and The Blue Illusion.

You can have any deck and any set up you wish in the box . This can be bought out and any routine done before changing the card box once they are finally put 2/3’s of the way back in at the end of the routine Gaz 🙂

Oh, thank you very much. It is a good news. The deck case doesn't change its colour, even it contains nothing, during performance of Vernon's trick (or anything else), does it?

Can you leave the deck box on the table BEFORE changing colour, during card performance? I've heard that the box cannot be closely watched for a long time AFTER colour change. But the box can be left on the table BEFORE colour change, say for 2 minutes during Vernon's Colour Changing Deck?

Yes it can be left on the table before the change .
After the change it’s even better as it’s locked in place so better still Gaz 🙂

Any recommendations on a really good colour changing deck routine to perform before the box change ?
Thank you in advance

Roberto Giobbi's Color Changing Deck is good.

I took the liberty of pre-ordering this at Penguin. Looked pretty good to me. I also had the same idea many of you did that it would go great with the Vernon color changing deck, so I’ve been busily brushing up on that routine.

The last instant color changing box I owned was a long time back with Rob Bromley’s color changing box...but that used elastics. I understand that this one does not, which I thought was a big plus.
The difficult must become easy, the easy beautiful and the beautiful magical.

This trick made me break my preorder rule, dang it.

I hope The Blue Illusion is as good as those who have it say it is.

Not having this but thinking about performing it, I like the suggestions to make the box color change part of the finish/climax. I was thinking of placing the spectators "blue card" on the table, inserting the cards and doing the color-changing box as part of a magical gesture towards the card where the box and card change together.
