5 out of 5

This is one of only two items that Magic Wagon produced in 2023 and it is their third attempt at tackling Peter Warlock’s amazing glass penetration. The versions created by Magic Wagon so far are:

  1. Mod Quad Penetration – 2008
  2. Atomic Glass Penetration – 2020
  3. Mystic Window Penetration – 2023

(and this does not include all types of glass penetration they have created).

This version uses a slightly different method from the original and when you view the effect you notice these differences:

  • the relative width of the overall frame has been reduced.
  • four small squares of glass are used instead of one larger glass pane.

If you know how the original works this version might well fool you.  It is also certainly a little cleaner and simpler to perform.  However, by reducing the glass into smaller pieces to my mind it does not seem quite as impossible – it is much harder to “do something tricky” with a large piece of solid glass.  But if you love the sort of well made compact close-up magic that Magic Wagon is famous for you will surely love this version.
