Hi,

I've recently gotten back into magic after more than 20 years. My interest is mainly to perform small stuff close up for friends, and as an ice breaker when meeting people.

I did see the video for Bio Shock... it looked nice to me, but I do have reservations. Has anybody any experience with this effect ? If so, are all the pieces examinable ? I prefer to work with things that can be readily examined.

Thanks,
Scott

No. And don't be fooled by the video.
Bio Shock is crap.
Sugar Rush is here! Freakishly visual magic. http://www.plattmagic.com

It looks tacky and it is. Not a good investment.

I've had some fun with it watching myself in a mirror,but I probably have to much time on my hands!!! It's not that well made and it's not worth 20.00 dollars.

Yikes -- this is a weird Tenyo trick where you show your hand covered with a handkerchief and a weird red thing, stick a card through it, and apparently pull your fingers off.

I own it. I bought it with Japanese instructions, and I thought, "There's gotta be more to it than this. Surely I am missing something." Nope. It's not very magical or practical.
