Hey, that’s me! Thank you for the kind words, David! Keep doing what you’re doing! 🙌🏼
You also !!!
Once again, Magicorthodoxy is the man. Love this review. Can’t wait to see the effect. Maybe I’ll have to review it myself in an upcoming video
Do it!
Might take me a while. I’ve only just started as you know. I’ve only uploaded two videos so far... they take so long to edit! I don’t know how you do it... IT’S SO HARD! Haha
Great review! Got mine the other day and am having fun practicing it. I do agree with your dislike of swear words though, I recognize a lot of people don't have any issues with it, but I'm not a fan and I'm in my 20's! So, you don't have to be "old" to not like it!
LOL
I just bought this product after watching your review David. I paid $64.16 and I hope it’s totally worth it and I won’t be disappointed!!!
You'll have to put the time in ... but its a great trick
I got nothing but time my friend. Especially nowadays lol
I think I mentioned this in the review, but you gotta be super bold as well - like just "willing" to do big moves - but like you saw - it fooled a room full of magicians !
Where did you buy it? & what is it called?
Thanks for the review I searched the depths of the internet and found the last one in stock
Enjoy it
I was really hesitant about this effect after Buying Ping and watching/reading all the reviews on "Stay Cool" But this effect does really pack a punch and with how powerful this is and your review I might just end up buying this. Thank you again for your honest reviews!
Thanks man
Same family of what you thought pull or reel they both would’ve been good but this is great I mean front palm back palm then ditch it’s beautifully created
I like this a *LOT* more than his last release.
Me 2
I'm always weary of magic trailers. Because of you I'll be purchasing this trick. You should get paid by these companies. You're a great reviewer. Like if you give the ok on the product I know it's legit. Keep up the great work.
I'd never accept money for a review
@Jasper Jones true
yes ! my request has been granted ! thanks for the review
Woot !!!
Great review! My husband has been looking at this for quite some time.
awesome
Terrific review. In depthand informative. I never would have guessed your negayive was going to be what it was. And to be honest I think the same way. You have convinced me on the effect though. Thank you for putting this out there.
oh cool
I was waiting for your review on this one,bin sitting on the fence but after your review I’m tempted even more,a big thanks,best wishes
watch some over reviews
hi Jason,yes still sitting here,some really good reviews,but wondering if this is a now and again trick in the right situation,cheers
very good review thank's
THANKS
This is very interesting! I trust your reviews and value your reviews.
THANKS !!!
Great review. 👍👍
Thanks
Best Reviewer Ever David ! Big Fan of You. Keep Upp ❤️
THANKS !!!!
Cool review, David!
Thanks
a really good review, covering everything. Thanks a lot :)
THANKS !!!!
You can't get OPTIX in the UK? Why not?
it might be sold out - this trick is 2 years old
Glad you are petty ...
Thanks for the review David 📲 👍🏻
Any time!
That was quick.
Latest and greatest!!!
David great review. Looks fun, I have an idea how it may work.
:D
Great review and great trick
:D
the way you said you thought it worked anyways no worries Tobias covers a lot on there I will probably use the vanish where it looks like you eat it that seems to be most angle proof.
I thought it worked with a classic elastic vanisher with a dinner jacket
I have this would love to learn your way to vanish
my way?
Hey David great review was gonna pull the trigger yesterday but said wait for magicorthodoxy tell give me the negatives. I plan on using this an opener, can I walk away or turnaround after the vanish without the gimmick exposed? I mean after the vanish is it concealed out of site, from all angles?
easily palmed and ditched
I am definitely getting it
:D
This is sold out everywhere damn!!...
Get this one ua-cam.com/video/KgwAXr9SW8M/v-deo.html
this looks very good! O.o
:D
Great review as always, Dave! Couple requests... The Dark Veil and Revolved. Almost pulled the trigger on Revolved but changed my mind so I could see your review 1st! Lol Thanks for all you do!
Revolve is coming soon! (but I bet I am going to like it, Nicholas Lawrence is a genius!) And he sold out of REVOLVE at #magifest
P. S. Thoughts on The Larry Wallet? Thanks!
It's not bad, but I don't see it replacing my viper. You get a full Peek, not a partial peek
but it's made of pleather and will work somewhat as a real wallet because storage is limited. That means it will hold a few plastic cards, like a debit card and your license and you can store a couple of bucks in folded up in half for "looks." $30 at Penguin
@@magicorthodoxy Thanks bud! Appreciate it!
Nice review!!
Will you be doing a review on steve forte's new book?
Gambling sleight of hand?
I hope so
Thanks for the review David👍🏿
What was the name of the coin vanish that you mentioned?
Now U C it
One negative i can think of is that it doesn't really hold up to repeat performances. I know you're not supposed to perform the same trick twice but we all know spectators will watch you do this again from afar if you are doing it walk around. Once they do, they'll know at least how half of it was done.
oh yea, def don't do this trick twice for the same audience, they'll know what is coming and be burning you hard
Very good, I'm interested. 🤓 I agree with your criticism, they should bleep out the swears. Good one Dave!
:)
Thanks for the review Sir. I agree you could go with the other classic vanish gimmick and I may try my raven but this is super clean and easy ditching like coin work. Tobias simply knows how to make a magical moment and the method here is just plain smart. Because it’s not a gecko the get ready is way better. The eating of the phone is almost angle proof and I think that is a huge plus. Most of all I appreciate that Tobias goes beyond app magic for using the ubiquitous cell phone. And listen I am a huge Pigcake fan but this trailer should have been bleeped. Swearing is something you enter into as an agreement and I like to think we and everyone has a choice rather than just being inundated with cheesy swearing reactions.
Great comment
magicorthodoxy Thank you, I tried a little bad acting routine with it in my review lol ua-cam.com/video/adQ9W4e0YRM/v-deo.html
So are there any clothing restrictions (like wide sleeves or a jacket)?
I answered those questions in the review
Biggest issue with this, is that the spectator has a video to rewind and watch over and over again. Meaning they can easily work out what happened. So the big wow will fade away really quickly.
maybe, but this trick can fool a camera if you practice
Practice and speed
Do you have to open camera on spectators phone.. Or turn on their flashlight.. With so many phones doing this quickly could be problem
They turn on their own camera for you
Welp looks like I’m getting this one .. I thought it was too good to be true . Got to try this one out .
Its pretty dope
magicorthodoxy just ordered it, thanks for the reply man! Keep up the reviews I always come to you
Hello sir I am from india
I like your reviews 😊
THANKS !!!
David! What's your favorite Tobias Distal trick?
I think I only own 2
Would this work if the spectator has a very distinctive case? I can’t help but think I’d recognise my phone case as it has a big red rubber edge on it
thats been a fear of many - I guess its one of those things you have to try
This looks like I can just use the gimmick for Dropped Call and a little misdirection and BOOM, I've got OPTIX.
Very true 👍
@@magicorthodoxy I don't mean any disrespect to the creator. His product was first. I'm just saying: I bought Dropped Call first and then saw this and was like, "Hmmmmm."
Great review. could you share the name of the coin trick you mentioned that you purchased when you were younger? Thanks
sorry then it would give away how THIS is done
Love the review! BTW Kids have never heard anyone swear, their parents certainly have never used swear words. You sounded really old when you complained about not bleeping out the swear words.LMAO! You are still the man!
I am really old
Tap Maan he’s a role model
It comes down to standards. Some just hold high ones then others. He's just being respectful/thoughtful of the parents wishes. Sure some parents swear around their kids and don't care what they listen to or what influences them. But some (most) do. No parents object to clean language. Some object to foul language. So why have it if you don't need it. That was the point. Just caring, a bit. That does some across strange to some.
Easily in the top 5 effects I've purchased in the 25 years of doing magic. It's so fun to do
Agreed
Caleb Miller Now yer talking❣️
First, always love your reviews...❤️
Surely this effect doesn’t actually need the gimmick which is being sold here? The same exact effect can be done with a light up thumb tip whereby you seemingly go to grab your phone from an inside pocket, and then unknowingly to the spec, hand them back their own phone whilst you light up your thumb tip (all you can see from the specs point of view is a light and not an actual phone) and then proceed as in the effect and do the reveal.....
my thumb tip doesn't make a blinding flash style light like this - does yours? Mine just looks like a glowing thumb. Also the spectator SEES a phone in the magician's hands, he doesn't just see you holding extended thumb
What is the quarter vanish that you mentioned called? I would like to see that.
The Rating is the worst you can say about this effect? I'm really excited.
the rating?
@@magicorthodoxy I'm referring to your ";-) comment" that the only downside of OPTIX that you can see are the swear words of the crowd reacting in the tutorial videos. By the way did you attend to Vanishingincs Online lecture yesterday? It was amazing.
well I also mentioned the gimmick is big, and that there is palming and ditching involved, - some people (depending on ability) might count those as negatives - it's not for everyone
@@magicorthodoxy I'm sorry if I offended you by mistake (I'm not a native speaker). I very much appreciate your reviews and trust your judgement. It seemed to me that despite your precise and factual review there was some excitement shining through. I could very much relate to this. That's what I meant. :-)
Unless you're homeschooling your kids, they hear those words -- and almost certainly use those words -- on a daily basis.
:D
Will you be reviewing Hydrostatic Wine Glass by Jeimin soon?
soon? No, I don't own it - sorry
Nice review!!!
Everyone is talking about this trick and i can understand why, it looks like a good trick.
Am i going to buy it? Not a chance, i saw the trailer and my reaction was "meh" , i see the appeal but not for me, cellphone tricks it's a no go for me.
Keep up the great work 😁👍
Thanks !!!
Hey you should review the new monarchs
That would be cool
magicorthodoxy are you going to do it
So based on what you've described, this prob wouldn't work for stage or parlor w a bright light on you? Justcurious because it does look like a great opener!
maybe not - plus the prop isnt that big
@@magicorthodoxy ok, thank you!
How long will the gimmick last?
I guess it depends on how often you use it, and how well you take care of it
What is the reset time? Do you need to go hide in private while you retrieve the 'vanished phone'?
Nope, think of it more like a palmed card to pocket
So, the reset time would be simply taking the gimmick from one pocket and moving it the other?
The best coin vanish??... pls tell me... gimmcked...
a "popular" one going around instagram right now is - NOW-U-C-IT, NOW-U-DON'T by Meir Yedid
Can u perform it to ur one friend? Is it really practical????
Hi David, can you please review supernova by ellusionist. It’s been out for a while but has flown under the radar.
hmmm, I will have to look for that
magicorthodoxy Awesome, much appreciated. It’s created by Duane Williams
15$ away from making the purchase...CANT WAIT!
Thx for the review, keep it up!
Sell more blood !!!!
@@magicorthodoxy Okie dokie lokie!
Mmmm this might buy a good buy for me :)
watch some other reviewers !!!
@@magicorthodoxy you've not put me wrong yet buddy :D
gotcha I thought it was on a reel because of the noise he uses with his mouth anyway my bad I misunderstood thanks again
I think a reel would work
Looks good but I couldn’t use it in my magic
just use to make your grandkids phones vanish. "I dont know where it went ...."
magicorthodoxy lol
Is it like e=mc2?
exactly like it
But does this require wearing a jacket?
7:00
@@magicorthodoxy in your review about optix you are stating that this doesn't require wearing a jacket
@@magicorthodoxy what does 7:00 mean
Looks good, but it just doesn’t pull me in...
Wamp wamp waaaaa
TO ALL WHO PLAN ON BUYING THIS - DONT. They are sending a differently working gimmick (cheaper) than is portraid in the video trailer. You will not be able to perform it as smoothly as it is portrayed, even though the explanation video says so. They are trying to dress it as "improvement" but it is just a cheaper version of what it is shown in the trailer. Very disapointed in Ellusionist. Trying to get my money back coz its really unworkable
Whats the difficulty level
you gotta be able to be comfortable palming and ditching a large-ish item
People's reactions in this trailer seem rather weak for the hype this effect is getting. It seems like they are surprised for a quick second when they realize they are holding their phone then it quickly fades and it appears they feel silly that they didn't even realize they are holding their own phone. Almost as if they were duped. They almost feel embarrassed or like an idiot that they were fooled so easily. I still stand by this, I think it's a lame effect that has little to do with astonishment and wonder and more like "gotcha".
oh wow, that's not how I interpret their reactions at all
magicorthodoxy I think the phone vanish and other applications are really great! I think the concept of making them think they have your phone and that you vanish theirs and the transposition will only be a temporary mystery. They will come to the conclusion that they’ve been holding it all along. It’s a quick moment of surprise and that’s all. To me, it’s a novelty effect that will die off in another 6 months.
I dont think itll be temporary in their minds. They're filming with their own phone and can go back to re watch it. I understand you're hesitancy about worrying about making your spectators feel stupid though, I'm still feeling that way myself.
Brandon Pearce I don’t think the astonishment holds up much. Even with a video. Logic kicks in and the only explanation is that he handed me my own phone and tricked me into thinking it was his. When they watch the playback on their phone, they know that all of the footage is being shot from their phone. It’s not like there’s a visual magic moment of when the phones “transposed”. It’s a novelty effect. A great concept in theory. I think in practice it’s not as strong as Ellusionist tends to hype shit up to be. I do however, really like the phone vanish gimmick. That has lots of potential. To me, that alone as an effect is way stronger.
Clothing restrictions if you want to do the whole routine. You can vanish "your phone" in short sleeves, but you will need a button up shirt or jacket to perform the full routine, he doesent teach any way to do it without a jacket.
great comment

How fragile is the gimmick
Give it six months and this will go in magician's pile of crap.
