Price $130 , the set (free shipping!)
Effects:
Hatching: Signed coin to egg.
Glastion: A signed card to borrowed sealed glass bottle.
Coinetration: Signed coin in glass with beverage.
Sweet card: A sweet revelation on a glass.
Ballooned: Cell phone to signed balloon.
CAPture: Ring to baseball cap.
Crispes: Signed coin to chips bag.
Bending coins: 2 variations of Titanas signed bending coins.
NTF: Needle through finger.
My thoughts:
Hatching - I love this effect and the dvd makes the setup seems much simpler as opposed to the previous booklet.
Glastion - This looks really fair! You can use a bottle that doesnt have a central label (ie like budwiser) so it looks really clean. Unfortunatly you need a bottle with a certain type of cap, which isnt that common in Britain. Its worth hunting out suitable bottles though! You also need a cheap item that is usually used in stage magic.
Coinetration - This is one of my favourite effects on the dvd and is almost impromptu. You need a small item that many magicians will have and that can be put in a wallet.
Sweet Card - I really like this. The setup and performance is really easy and costs practically nothing. You can also set up way ahead of time.
Ballooned - This is an amazing effect and is my favourite effect on the dvd. You need to spend a fair bit of money on the setup, but you will never need to replace the items again (unless you break or loose them). You need a bit of cover to do 'the move', but you end with an examinable cell phone sealed inside an examinable balloon. The spectator can actually burst the balloon themselves and take out the phone
CAPture- I like this and would use it as an intro to 'Interlace' by Richard Sanders. It can be done with a coin or ring.
Crispes- A nice penetration that can be done with any bag of crisps or snacks. There are some really nice subtleties that convince
the spectator they feel the coin actually penetrate the bag.
Bending Coins - some very nice ways of bending signed coins. No expensive gimmicks required!
NTF - a very unusual piece! i like the fact that its set to music and doesnt require patter
Overall 9/10 some really unique effects
Difficulty varies depending on effect but id say 2-4
