Khyber Raccoon by Collectors’ Workshop
(c. 1987) (Submit Review) (Submit Update)This little Raccoon of course works the same as the Khyber Kobra – since it is one, just with a different head. But the fun and byplay you can have with the raccoon seem to be more than just with the snake.
Effect: In 1987, The Khyber Kobra automaton was the single biggest seller in CW’S History (though I believe it was later superceded by Jumbo Sidekick which came out 1989):
- He rises, but with the wrong card
- He returns to the basket to try again
- Groups of cards come flying out of the basket
- The Cobra rises again! This time, he’s got it
- He descends (complacently) into the basket
- But he returns, just peeking above the basket to share the applause

Andy Martin –
Well you’ve got to love this little guy!
We all love the Khyber Kobra, but wouldn’t it be nice to have a one off such as the Khyber Chicken or now this new one that I recently acquired the Khyber Racoon. I’m not really a collector of one off Khyber Kobras, but now I have two of them!
I have to believe that there are some serious performance possiblities with a Raccoon and a Chicken. This little Raccoon of course works the same as the Khyber Kobra – since it is one, just with a different head. But the fun and byplay you can have with the raccoon seem to be much more than just with the snake.
I look forward to finding the time to routine this guy into my act at some point in the future
