WoW by Masuda

The Effect: A spectator freely selects a card, signs his name on the face and returns it to the deck.
An indifferent card is slid into a paper-thin clear plastic sleeve just large enough to hold the card.
While the sleeve is held between thumb and forefinger, and with no hand movement of any kind, the indifferent card slowly and visibly morphs into the signed selected card!
The spectator can remove his card. There is nothing else in the sleeve! It looks like real magic!
Cost: $55.00 mjmmagic.com, however I got mine for $20 from a friend
Difficulty
(1=easy to do, 2=No sleights, but not so easy, 3=Some sleights used,
4=Advanced sleights used, 5=Suitable for experienced magicians only)
1: very easy, fool proof gimmick
Review
An amazing colour change. I was not dissapointed, it really did wow me,
it requires almost no work, just simple card controls, and you get the most amazing results.
Pros:
-Amazing Colour Change!!!!
-Ridiculously Easy!!!
-Instantly Repeatable (to another group)
-Can be worked into several routines
Cons:
-Cannot be performed twice for the same audience ( then again, how many tricks can be?)
-Expensive
-Gimmick cannot be handled by spectators
Overall:
10/10 I'm very pleased with Wow, it will be in my repetoire for years to come. Get it! you will not be dissapointed.
