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.
