I have seen both the previous version of this trick that Andy performed, and I also seen the most recent version by Andy performed that was also created by Paul Lembo and Joe Long of Limited Edition Magic.

Andy’s performance of this most recent version really caught my attention and drew me to the trick. The colors really stand out to me as they would an audience. The simplicity or what seems like a simple trick as Andy performed it, was also an inspiration to me in wanting to purchase this trick.

I must say that I really think that it is an excellent piece of magic. Checks all the boxes. Simple to perform, beautiful colors combine to bring out this great piece recreated. Thank You Paul, Joe and as always Andy for your video and inspiration. Some great magic!

This little gem from Dave Powell can perform some serious magic. You can switch decks, you can perform revelations, you can also reveal hidden items. Is it worth the money, I would say yes. Dave is currently only making 12 of these and I would suggest if you want one, get it now at Powell magic.com I have 2 other switching devices in my collection, but, I cannot do an entire deck with the case of cards. Dave has solved this issue in my switching devices. If you can afford one, I would get is soon.

What a trick! I performed this for 2 different sized audiences today at work. One group was about 15 people and the Second group was around 30 people. Both groups said that this is one of the best tricks that I ever performed for them.

I was really blown away with the feedback that I received on Casino Royale from my audience. They really enjoyed it! Most people really appreciated the idea that how the trick had 3 predictions built into it and the fact that each prediction seemed impossible. I also had some engineers in the group that were amazed and couldn’t figure it out.

To top this all off, I am not a performer. Just think what a performer could do with this material. Thank you George Robinson/Collectors Workshop for recommending, creating and Larry Becker for coming up with the original idea!

I have seen this trick at various estate sales or what not and it always interested me. I bought mine off Ebay. I really believe in the art of magic that Tom has created a signature piece. Very good instruction video too. I think I will actually sell my piece off Ebay and buy it directly from Tom. No matter what happens, even though, the girlfriend is my test of a new trick, she couldn’t figure out how I got her ring in that time piece. Just Wonderful Tom! A signature piece of yours to me. Thank you! Made my day!

I think this piece of magic works the way after all these years the way it was meant to. I never understood why there were so many of this type of trick created by Magic Wagon. It is a good trick originally, leave it alone. But, I think with this piece they created something the same, but different, at the same time. I obviously never cared or purchased this by the original magical creator T.A. Waters, but, I know Magic Wagon got this one right after so many versions If you love Magic Wagon’s resin pieces, you are already going to enjoy this piece of magic. I really enjoy it for the simple fact that it is right in your face prediction. The other versions I don’t know about, but, I think this is a really nice piece of magic if you never collected the other “chances” at this effect.

Let me start by saying a long time ago I realized that I am not a coin guy. Many years back I personally owned a Copentro effect that I thought was amazing. I still honestly do think that it is a great trick with coins.

Fast forward to 2024 and Silver Odyssey. After all of these years, I wanted to see George Robinson of Collectors Workshop make more of these that I could get my hands on one. My wishes came through with a previous owner and I can tell you that it is just beautiful and very fun to perform. The electronics (as many collectors, I don’t usually like electronics), but the electronics are very dependable, and I am very happy with Silver Odyssey I must say.

My only gripe or complaint that I had on mine was underneath the tray needed to be shined. With some help and advice from George I purchased a silver shining product that made the bottom look as good as the side and what you see displayed on Andy’s site. Just wonderful! A very highly recommended trick from George and Collectors Workshop!

Usually if I am interested in a piece of magic over the years, I refer to Andy as I know Andy is professional as a collector and magician. I recently acquired one of these boxes that he has had before in one of his auctions that I have only thought about adding into my magic collection, but, never committed, but always interested in this piece. I must say I am not disappointed in Andy’s review or recommendation on this one. It really is a beautiful and tricky little box originally created by Magiro and this one from Limited Edition Magic.

I was very lucky to find this one honestly. You can do the two stage trick that Andy demos in one of his speed demos or as the instructions say, just do a 3 card prediction that will just fry your spectators. I haven’t actually put this out there in a real world performance yet because I am not a performer. But, I will tell you this, this little box is capable of some pretty amazing things I believe with cards and it will be very easy to use.

I think this is one of those Magic Wagon pieces that flew under a lot of other’s radar. I have had this in my collection of magic and it always seems to amaze. The only drawback of this trick is that you will have to come up with a good story to go along with the trick. Other than that, I think that it is a very beautiful and amazing trick. Just like in the instructions, the performer never needs to be near the dice and it is almost self working. I really enjoy mine and would recommend it to others highly.

I have been collecting pieces of art as I call them or magic for some years now. I have never owned a piece from Bill at Wellington before. I was really surprised because a friend of mine recently purchased one before me and I had to get this piece also, but I was in the middle of purchasing another piece of magic or I would have purchased this. My friend told me that it was a little heavy, but he is a little older and I didn’t think nothing about it. I got mine, and yes, a little heavy and heavy duty at the same time. This piece of magic is made of very well made materials and will last forever if taken care of correctly. Very happy with it.

There are some copycats in the world unfortunately to this Magic Wagon piece and to Simon’s performance. I feel bad because I have actually owned them. Let me say this right now, my copycats bought overseas by 3D printing plastic are no comparison in the world to this piece. I am lucky enough to own one and alI can tell you, is the Magic Wagon piece actually worth it and yes, it is. It is a has a more solid, heavier feel to it.

It is very hard to explain a feeling with magic, but this piece of magic has a solid definition to it. To me, after having the others, there is no comparison. It is a great piece of magic art created by Magic Wagon. They come along rarely, but get one if one comes up for sale for your collection of Magic Wagon items, get it. You won’t regret it!
