This is a great effect. It's easy to perform, and requires a bit of prep (if you are doing multiple performances), but well worth it. The DVD was worth every penny, and I hate dealing with Penguin Magic, but would do it again for this one.

Sounds really cool, I did not like some of oz's older dvd's but recently he seems to be hitting the mark with this and the other mentalism dvd he put out

The demo looks very good...but how is this on pocket management...minus the obvious scissors and business cards?

Minus the scissors and business cards? There is nothing else involved. 2 pockets are used, that's all I'll say. Buy it to find out the rest. Smile

The first time I saw this effect was from Richard Osterlind and I liked it immediately.

The Oz variation is good for close up and the business card idea is great, BUT I don´t think that this idea is worth 30$.

My conclusion:
- Nice effect for somebody who don´t know it.
- Nothing really new that ligitimate this price for somebody who know the basic effect.

For me, Oz's 21st Century Phantom is money well spend! It's worth every penny as my specs love it and I enjoy performing it even more.. This effect leaves your spec with your business card info and his or her idol on the special something, perfect in my book.

My dad asked me to post because he cannot get to or use the computer and his portable is recharging.

He said that Oz updated the Annemann routine and made it workable for close up and walk around and made it more modern. He thinks it's worth more than the asking price.

So you use your own business cards?
but I hope you can use just a normal square of card / paper ??
I just think that not much of your info would be legible after the sissors have attacked the business card?
or am I just missing the point here........?

Nice routine, can anyone advise me of a UK seller of the black sticky things? don't seem to be able to find one, also, the four templates with the DVD, Elvis is OK to use, John Travolta would be a nightmare to make, and no one in the UK really knows Oprah and Jay Leno, the website has the same four repeated for downloads, and not others as mentioned on the DVD. We need some more templates of universally known people, Maralyn Monroe etc, I don't mess around with paint packages so don't have chance to make others up, and the weblink above uses grey tones and to be honest don't look very good, I wouldnt recognise the people from those pics.

Great point!

I prep and perform this great effect slightly different than the DVD.

1.I place a un-mutilated business card one side on of the business card magnet.(2) Use blank business card stock for the celebrity stencils, celebrity names deck and to perform the effect.

It's a win-win situation,

They get a unique giveaway and your full business card.

I bought this routine as I was unable to use the Osterlind Version I have due to the fact most of the celebs were not really that well known over here in Yorkshire Pudding Land, England, does anyone else know of any more silhouettes we in the UK could use for templats? as I mentioned above, no one really knows Jay or Oprah that well, we could do with just a few more of these templates to help us out, the DVD said there would be more on the webpage, however only the same four that arrived with the DVD are on the website.

Anyone.....?

Cheers!

Here's another site, however, there is some duplication from the previously listed

The stencils are a little small, but I don't think it'd be that difficult to enlarge them. I think in the meantime I'd stick with Oz's enclosure of famous people..

What stencil site are you referring to?

I have a problem! I can´t find any shop here in germany where I can get or order the magnetic business card adhesive stickers. The staples adress just send within the USA but not international.
Any links from shops that also send to germany?
