I'm not really a fan of Wow, but I agree that it has its place. In the right setting for the right audience, I think it would look good. Same goes for just about any gimmick you care to mention, actually. I think an objectively useless and poor gimmick is very rare, if it exists at all.

Are you saying you can't get the item to work?

It needs NO instruction to use it. However, the handling and routine that comes with the instruction is the most known and basic one :)

Yeah I can work it and the way I do it is using a DL and a "wrong card" but I wasn't sure if there was a better /more interesting routine. I'm thinking now I can use it at the end of an ambitious card routine.

Depends on the situation, but if I am with one person, it is between an ambitious card and Torn, all with the same card. They have already signed the face, and so for WOW I print their name in big letters on the back of "another" card in prep for Torn.

Or I do anniversary waltz using it and one regular card.

Torn is a comercial torn and restored card effect, and Anniversary Waltz is a well known effect by Doc Eason

late post = is this almost the same as the 'Incredible Business card printer'? Looks very similar, so I don't know if anyone has it?

I've seen the pre release and it's a much much better effect than the original which I didn't particularly like that much.

I'll be spending on V2 :lol:

Well to be fair Lee, this thread is a bit of a dig up, and WOW 2 wasn't even heard of back then, but yes agreed the new Wow is gonna be great and there's already plenty of routines I can think of for it.

This is great news.

I heard about WOW 2 about a month ago but thought it was just a rumour or a joke. I am so excited of the potential this has.

I have just placed my order and cant wait. I found it at http://www.kernowmagic.co.uk/product_in ... ts_id=3285

It seems they have it cheaper than the original WOW. Even better.

Its a kid in a sweet shop moment.
