Effect
The Phantom 2.0 (SuperHero) trick creates the illusion of a playing card sticking to a glass frame. A spectator selects a card, and when the magician throws it toward the frame, the card appears to defy gravity by clinging to the glass. The effect is visual, surprising, and can be combined with other routines like a real card change under glass or a playful "middle finger" gag.
Full details
The Phantom 2.0 is an upgraded version of the original Phantom frame trick. It includes a gimmicked frame with a hidden mechanical hand that interacts with objects, such as playing cards. The key feature for this trick is the ability to make a card stick to the glass when thrown, creating a baffling visual moment.
The frame comes with multiple hands for different effects, including a blank prediction card, a playing card, and a middle finger for comedic routines. The mechanism has been improved for smoother operation, and the components are more durable for repeated performances.
Who should consider the trick
This trick suits magicians who perform in walkaround, stage, or corporate settings. It works well for:
- Close-up magicians who want a visual, interactive prop.
- Comedy performers who can use the "middle finger" gag for humor.
- Corporate entertainers who can customize the frame with logos.
- Stage magicians looking for a unique visual piece.
Information on how difficult it is to perform
The Phantom 2.0 is designed for ease of use. The lever system has been refined for smoother control, and no palming is required for the card sticking effect. Beginners may need practice to time the movements naturally, but experienced magicians will find it straightforward. The included instructional video provides clear guidance.
