Re: I performed some tricks last night ...

Great to see Ghost Camera worked out well. Just curious did you take the picture using their phone or did you let them take the picture? Like Simon said the surface is important for Plunger. When I tried it on a cloth tablecloth I think I was able to do half a deck fairly well. A full deck was prett...

Re: super vase a la india

Yes there is. While I haven't completely gone through the book is appears he has the English packaging for everything that was available (No Coin Coaster package). Sometimes he has pictures of multiple packages if they are different and sometimes both the English and Japanese packages. BTW I did not...

Thanks. A little out of my price range at the moment. Sorta hoping someone had one they'd like to trade.

Great! Happy you found what you are looking for.
Sorry about your wallet. ;)

I guess what I am looking for most now is Paradox. Anyone comes across one of those or wants to trade one feel free to let me know. :)

So that's where it went. My English version is missing the shell and one ball. But how did it get all the way to you? :)

T-77 See through card is my next target, I never really noticed how good it was until recently. There's one on eBay UK for 80 Pound so they can keep that one. I think $40 is about right. There is a See Through Card on Ebay right now for $20 right now. Tony Reisner Magic also has one for sale for a ...

It does show a picture of the English package for Linking Rings but he says the picture is from a catalog. He was not able to find an existing copy of it. It is similar to the Japanese package you have on your site. He does not show an English package for Super Sponge Ball. Just the one in plastic t...

Re: Looking for T-113 Quicksilver Coin Loading Gimmick

I did have a broken quicksilver. I ended up taking it apart and it basically broke into pieces but I can't remember what happened to the loading gimmick. It probably got lost but I'll take a look and see if I can locate it.

Same here. I'm not very optimistic about finding any of the Tenyos on my want list anytime soon. So my next purchase would probably be the 2016 special trick whatever that may be.

I'm afraid the Buzz Lightyear version does not seem to be available anymore. The regular version is. It has the same exact tricks. Just different designs on the pieces.

Re: Tenyo Mickey`s Magic Shop (Jigsaw Puzzle)

I haven't gotten this puzzle yet but it is definitely on my wish list. They also sell this on Amazon.com for around the same price ($20). http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BYM77Y By the way, Tenyo also made a 2000 piece version of the puzzle that was 73×102cm but that one is also long discontinued.

Re: Two confirmed hints towards the 2016 releases

Wizard Product Review has Mystery Doghouse on this weeks show. They don't think it is a professional magic trick.
Interesting that they picked that one to review. I would have though Ghost Camera would be more up their alley.

Re: T-109 Midas Machine

This was one of the first Tenyo tricks I ever bought and it is still one of my favorites. The illusion looks so perfect and spectators are surprised when you just hand them the bill and there doesn't appear to be anything else to see. On the downside the imprint is that of the old $10 bill which are...

A clever trick. I especially like how the envelope is gimmicked without looking gimmicked. It can be fully examined and you would never notice it.
