Tenyo Magic Forum

I just received an email from an eBay seller in Japan that the new release date will be from Dec 21 to Dec 24, 2017.

Welcome to greatest magic forum on the planet!

Smart Guillotine looks deceptive but everyone will be suspicious of the black blade and want to examine it. Especially since the back of the blade is never show.
Having said that, I will still purchase one because it reminds me of older classic Tenyo effects.

Release date : December 11 129 I just took a quick look at the Smart Guillotine image and something very noticeable (to me) stood out that points to a possible method. I'm looking forward to the video on this one to see how deceptive it is in real life. Knowing that what I see, as a magician, and w...

The Guillotine will probably be my only Tenyo purchase this year. I'm on the fence with Bento box.
3D Magic Works has been satisfying my craving for cleaver mini illusions.

Ooh...the price on Cubes and Tubes has doubled! I'm glad I purchased this effect when it was first listed a few months ago.

I don't care for this "Elite" version either. $250 for this piece is way over priced.

I just don't understand why Tenyo Elite keeps skipping over all the truly great Tenyo pieces.

I took a very close look at the Mental Bento box on the YouTube video and saw something in the design that I believe gave away the method. Hopefully spectators won't find it as peculiar as I did.
I find Mental Bento to be very similar to Psy Chip by Tricks Co, Ltd.

Though the "Smart Guillotine" does use a dollar bill, according to the description on the jpmagic blog, you can have the spectator insert their finger after demonstrating with the dollar bill.
I used Google Translate for the description.

Hi Kirk, I just got also 2 types of the Tricks Co, version about 2 weeks ago. What a nice classic. But somehow the name is different. And I can make a picture if you would like to see them. Well Tricks Co. produced many kinds if this similar effect, Once I got also similar version like this one (Ch...

Randy, I will be curious to see what you have. I have three Tricks Co. color changing record effects but each either changes the records from black to red or from black to red, green and yellow. The ones I own are: Trio Records Color Symphony Color Rhapsody (came with rings and records) None of them...

Does anyone know what this version of the Color Changing Records is called and where it can be purchased? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxa054Idsms The only version I can find is the one where three black records change to three different colors and then back to black. I really like the change fro...

Well Rob, your review/description of the Magiro book got me really excited so I decided to make the purchase. I just received an email that the book had shipped. :D I will need to do the scanning and Google translation thing but it will all be worth it. I've had to translate a number of great effect...

Welcome to the world of all things clever.

With recent magic purchases over the last year and a half, I’ve noticed a trend toward written/printed instructions being replaced with access to online video instructions. Though I do like being able to see complex handlings in video format, I also like the written word and enjoy learning an effect...

I bought Cubes And Tubes and the quality is top notch, you can drop the dice out without worrying about it coming apart because its made quite tight. I will make a quick video when I get a moment. That is good news. I just placed my order for one yesterday but I'm sure it will take several weeks to...

So, has anyone purchased Cubes and Tubes and if so, what did you think? Is the quality of the piece good and does the die stay together without fear of it coming apart when you dump it out of the box?

Even though I know the workings of this piece, I like it because of its different approach to the die penetration effect. Unfortunately, the shipping cost to the United States makes this a bit too expensive for me. If it ever comes available from a US magic retailer, I will purchase it. Since I alre...

Things have been somewhat quiet in Jason' s absence. He could really stir people up!

Ninja Experiment is my favorite. The props look good, the effect is great, and no unwanted sounds. ☺

Jason,

Just do a Google search for Genii Convention 2017. It will give you all the info you're looking for.

I suppose you'd consider Card Surgery a card trick even though you're restoring a card instead of revealing what card a spectator chose by either free will or force. God bless, Jason Scott Irelan Actually, I don't think of Card Surgery as a card trick but a brilliant and clever restoration. I love ...

Pleaseeee...no card trick

I too would love to see a "No card tricks" year with Tenyo!

...The only reason I don't prove to them that it's just an illusion by revealing the secret is because they're never willing to pay what I had to pay from the trick. - ... and he wanted to know how I did it so bad, but I wouldn't tell because he wasn't offering any money for the stamps I bought.

Is Animation Frame discontinued?
