I cannot for the life of me remember either of these two effects. Both were brilliant gimmicked decks.

1. This was a sort of CAAN routine where the gimmicked was both the deck and the box. There were 5 gimmicked cards with magnets in them. There was a magnet used on the box with the cards inside where the location on the box determined how many cards were retained when the cards were removed.

2. A card is selected after the full deck is show all different. Deck is shuffled and one card is removed and revealed as the wrong card. A color change is done and the card is shown as correct. Then the deck is spread again and every card is shown to be the chosen card.

Does anyone know either of these effect names?

Great! What about the second one?

Second one sounds similar to Dani DaOrtiz' The Mirage
