Anyone know where to get flash bills that look good, particularly if they do currencies other than dollars?

I was wondering the same thing.
Storebought flash bills can't stand close up scrutiny. THIS IS PROBABLY ILLEGAL AS HECK, but I've been toying with the possibility of running the 9" sized FP through a copier ONE SIDE ONLY. I figure that if I get busted for counterfeiting the coin of the realm, I'd be able to convince the judge that a person would have to be a moron to accept a bill printed only on one side. I'm not sure that this "method" wouldn't end up setting the copier on fire. DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME, KIDDIES!!

I have not seen decent flash bills in years, that is just about as difficult to find as flash playing cards which have (I am told) been off the market for years.

Check out the "Good, Bad and Garbage" section—a Café user is offering (uhm, I should say "selling") customized gimmicked bills (also mismade bills) for non-US currencies.

I would suggest that running FP through a copier or laser printer would be VERY, VERY risky.
Those devices use a fuser (translation: Real HOT WIRE) to burn the toner into place permanently. If you open a copier, or laser printer, you will see a warning; "CAUTION HOT" becuase they get very hot, and FP and very hot means flash now! If the space where it is enclosed while ignited is too small, the flash will turn into a bang, and something, or someone can get hurt or broken. Don't do it. Bubble jet printing??? Think color too!

At the very least, running FP through a copy machine will set the toner on fire and cause dangerous and noxious fumes. Forget "don't try this kiddies", how about "don't try this if you have an IQ higher than a retarded rock"?

I have successfully printed on flash paper with my HP printer. I use flash paper of the thicker variety.
However, don't hold me responsible if the flash paper accidentally blows up your printer! |

Emory Williams of Williams Magic in Tucson, Az. is my provider for these.
They are one-dollar denomination and they look great. |

Magic Vision (Lové Mellander/Stefan Schytser) had a gimick called "the international flash bill" where you could take any bill, check, piece of paper and use it as a flash bill.
