Receiving this effect reminds me of why I haven't bought a gimmicked trick in... 10 years?
When I first watched the video, I didn't read anything, research anything, I just added to cart and hit checkout.
Watched it a second time, figured it out. It is what you expect.
First impressions make me believe that doing this in any building with light would be very difficult. The angles are terrible.
It looks great if you put it directly in front of your face, but then you expose the secret.
I wish I could go into more detail, but i'm pretty sure this is already getting beat up everywhere else on the net and I don't have much more to add.
Good idea in theory, but the technology just isn't good enough to make it not noticeable.
For the instagram magician, this is perfect. For a demo reel ,this is perfect. If you are on drugs or drunk, this is probably amazing.
Avoid this or buy a used copy somewhat took out of the package and put on ebay for 10 dollars.
It's been a long time since I've been really burned on a magic trick and it just reminds me on why I stick to sleight of hand, simple gaffs and books.

Re: Change by Lloyd Barnes
sorry....
Yea watching the trailer the "performer" does an obvious move over and over. So I "deduced" how it was done and after I saw some of the negative reviews... I knew I was right.
Sell it on ebay to a fanboy and get your money back
keywords: SOLD OUT ON ELLUSIONIST! It's sold as low as $28 and as high as $50
One man's garbage is another man's treasure?
worth a shot

Re: Change by Lloyd Barnes
This was just an impulse buy. I pretty much knew what I was getting, but I thought perhaps they had perfected the technology a little bit. If the lines were finer, maybe it would be easier to get away with... That is in low to no light.
