It would help to know exactly which animated cigarette you are talking about. John Kennedy has one where the cig floats to your mouth, then the matchbox stands on end opens and a match floats up and lights the cig. If that is the one you are talking about then you should be having problems with it, it is really not easy.

Of course there are tons on the market.

Hi,

Steve Fearson does a nice one, with a really nice alternative to a cigarette as well called Area 51.

yeah i am sorry its john kennedys effect, is it difficult or is it just me?
it just doesnt make sense to hold a lighter or a other prop in your hand now does it?

thx for the response
