Title: Reaction
Creator: Rizki Nanda
Publisher: Magic Tao
MSRP: $25
Skill Level: ALL
DVD Run time: 15 min

Type of effect: Flash reveal / ambitious card ending

Manufacturer's Write Up:
Imagine a spectator choosing any card in the deck, they sign the card on the face and you then lose it in the deck. Then you show the spectator a card with a cut out shape on it; you place it on top of the deck. In an instant the spectator's signed card appears through the cut out. Very visual, very easy to do. Enjoy performing 'REACTION'.

How accurate is the ad copy?
Very accurate, what they say happens, is what happens

What's in the box?
DVD and Reaction gimmick (in red or blue)

Key points:
It's versatile and is only limited by your imagination. You could make it a closing to an ambitious card trick, you could make it a color change or even a "I'm going to take you behind the scenes so you can watch the moment the magic happens" style effect.

My thoughts:
It's a fun effect that you could certainly get a lot of play out of. But I can't see someone doing this trick all their career long.

Is it well made:
It is well made, but it's not beyond you making your own,

Is it well taught:
The DVD has 15 minutes of instruction with a few ideas thrown in. I don't know what else they could have put in, but it did feel a little lacking.

How are the production values:
It's well shot in high definition in the Magic Tao studios.

Overall score:
6/10
