Review by Andy Martin for Die-Abolical Version 2 by Steve Cook, Tony Curtis
5 out of 5
An even more die-abolical version of Steve Cooks original idea Die-Abolical. Beautifully made by Magic Wagon again in conjunction with Tony Curtis and Peter Nardi. A self-contained piece of mentalism which is easy to do and every outcome is covered perfectly!
Review by Andy Martin for Deluxe Ghost Glass Penetration by Limited Edition Magic
5 out of 5
Based on a brilliant design by Richard Himber, Limited Edition Magic under the direction of Joe Long have come out with another winner. Joe even got compliments from the Magic Wagon team for this version. Great job Joe with this very clean and perplexing penetration.
Review by Andy Martin for Magiro's Deluxe Mysterious Block by Limited Edition Magic
5 out of 5
A wonderful remake of the old Magiro effect original imported by Howie Scharzman brought to you by Joe Long and his Limited Edition Magic line. Even though the block is securely locked down – you can even add the safety pins to the bolts – you can make any small object mysteriously appear inside the block. A great effect and built perfectly.
Review by Andy Martin for The Mouse Trap by Francois Danis
5 out of 5
The talented Frenchman is back with a box of two beautiful and entertaining paddle tricks taking inspirations from Eddy Taytelbaum and Willie Wessel. Please check-out the videos Francois has posted to see both routines. The routine for the second effect was created especially for Francois by the great German Craftsman Willi Wessel.
Review by Andy Martin for Deluxe Square Circle By Edwin McDonald
5 out of 5
Another beautiful piece by Southern Ohio’s best kept secret: Edwin McDonald. This is not only the most beautiful square-circle I have ever seen, it is very deceptive even from a few feet thanks to the intricate design and black felt like material on the inside of the square and load chamber. Edwin’s pieces are very rare and this item he built for his own show.
Review by Andy Martin for Vampire Block Surprise (#1 of 1) by Edwin McDonald
5 out of 5
This was beautifully constructed by Edwin McDonald who apprenticed under Walter Sheppard. Edwin was the best kept secret in magic as he has built some of the most beautiful pieces of equipment in the past 20 years. If you live in Southwest Ohio, you know who Edwin is. He is an artist and a fine builder. Nice Combination. This is the only one built. It is a beautifully done vampire block with this twist: once you pierce the block with the stake, you can pick up the whole thing supported by the chain only. It disproves the theory that the stake never locks in the block for in this version it does! You can release the block for the penetration effect at your command. It is always under your control. A great piece and there is only one!
Review by Andy Martin for Classic Records by Bob Kline
5 out of 5
I’m not sure why I’m so fascinated by the Color Changing Records effect, but I’m always keen to see new variations. I just picked up this version from Bob Kline, and boy it is amazing! So much better and effective than any other set I have seen. It even uses real records and very clever custom gimmicks to allow the effect to be performed as fairly and cleanly as possible. You end with three colored records which look clean from all angles and no clue where the real records went to. Bob Kline’s most famous creation might well be Copenetro, but he really created some amazing and high quality illusions and a few of them can be seen here. This item is no exception it really looks amazing and is perfectly made.
Review by Andy Martin for Oriental See-Through Block Box by Michael Baker
5 out of 5
It seems to me that every builder of quality painted stage props over the last 40 years has tried to equal the finish achieved by the amazing Milson-Worth. I don’t know any builder who has done that yet, but I would say that Michael Baker has come as close as I have seen with this new die box effect. What a stunning beauty it is. Not only does it look beautiful but the vanish of the block is the best I have seen. Where the heck does it go?
