NEW Richard Sander's Effect Identity now on Pre Order!

Here is the latest and brilliant card trick from Richard Sander's (creator of Tagged and Extreme Burn) - Identity! This much hyped and longly awaited card trick is almost here!

It enables you to walk up someone you've never met before and have them chose a card, mark it and shuffled into the deck. Next, you draw a series of random marks on the back of any indifferent card. Those marks VISIBLY JUMP from card to card, finally VANISHING COMPLETELY. The deck is slowly spread to reveal the marks on the back of one card...the spectators signed selection. One last incredible kicker... you offer the card to the spectator as a souvenir. In order to personalise it...you shake the card...and get ready for this...THE MARKS ON THE BACK OF THE CARD VISUALLY REFORM INTO THE SPECTATOR'S VERY OWN NAME!

Impressed?! Identity has been shipped from our US suppliers and we will be receiving it early next week so why not pre-order today to secure your copy? Pre-orders are processed and dispatched on a first come, first serve basis and the second we receive them they will be dispatched to you!

Magician, Criss Angel rumoured to tour with Michael Jackson!

The US magician, Criss Angel has been rumored to tour with superstar singer Michael Jackson after he apparently has had rows with famous stage magician - David Copperfield.

It has been said that Michael Jackson wants to use lots of illusions in his final farewell tour that is being held in the London O2 arena to make it a visual explosion for the audience. He originally asked David Copperfield to join him in London for the 50 date tour but has reportedly pulled out after Copperfield demanded $1 million per show! David Copperfield had huge success in the 1980's and 1990's and is one of the world's most famous stage magicians.

Criss Angel is said to be delighted at the invite to perform with the singing legend and it doesn't come as a surprise after his solo show has been a huge flop in Las Vegas and has been absolutely slatted by the critics. The US street magician has caused entertainment expert Cirque Du Solei their biggest embarrassment ever! Maybe a little time out of the spotlight and supporting another artist would do Angel the world of good!

The critics have said he isn't ready for this step in his career yet and it comes across on stage! Criss Angel has been made famous by his hit TV series - MindFreak which has recorded four seasons and several TV specials.
