I think it is quite money wasting in my opinion, unless ur a paid performer, u can do the colour change using this.

okay... here's the deal... first i would like to say that this effect is worth the 50 or so bucks you'll spend! Imagine doing the impossible:a signed card lost in the deck. you take a card which is obviously not the signed card and place it in this plastic sleeve which the spectator could hold at the beginning of the trick. with just a shake, you'd see the card "melt" visually into the signed card. THis is a very powerful effect! This will surely blow your spectators away. One draw back though is the gimmick. It kinda looks weird and illogical to be carrying a plastic sleeve. some smart ass spectator would often think, why put in the sleeve? can't you just shake the card??? but hey... the patter would give you an escape for this. All in all, this product is fully recommended for every magician out there!

I'm in love with WOW the moment I saw it performed by Fukai in a lecture sometime back. I couldn't resist the temptation but to purchase and use it in my regular routine.

According to Fukai, masuda handmade all WOW.

If you have enough penny to spare, this is a great prop to have.

The setback for WOW is that you're unable to handle the gimmick out for examination.

You can now hand out the gimmick for examination.. just need a quick switch to the ungimmick one.. which you can get.

Is there a ungimmick one that is sold out there? Unless, you're saying we're going to make a dummy one ourselves?

Instructions are uploaded by EXO in the e-book section
I have a copy also of that trick that is made in China and very good, but a lot cheaper. But please note that there is also a very bad copy made in China.

This is one of my favorites, You just need to have some good patter on why you have the gimmick. Anyone have any good presentations on why the gimmick is there? Some people say they use it as a playing card holder or a buisness card holder.

In real situation, I always hand out the gimmick to the audience.
And they never come to know the secrets or tricks.

it is definitely a good trick! so i created my very own gimmick! same effect! and same 'WOW' reactions! haha! why waste a lot of money when you can get the same reactions.

i say, this costs too much for the effect. although, i have to agree that the original gimmick is unmatched.

Guys, i can honestly say that after buying this effect (got this AND the ungimmicked version for examination for 25 euros on ebay. promotional deal that he does pretty regularly), that it KILLS if you have the ungimmicked sleeve that you can hand out later. The possibilities are endless. Rip a corner off a card, put a card in the sleeve that appears whole, and then BOOM, the ripped card has transposed and is now in the sleeve! This effect never leaves my pocket. I really recommend it.

Waste? Do you even spend money on magic?

Dai, I recommend you get Plastic Wallet for cards (0.95cents at MJM) because WOW perfectly fits in there.
