Magic Review - Hot Rod Pen by Penguin Magic

Magic Orthodoxy reviews the Hot Rod Pen by Penguin Magic, a modern take on the classic hot rod paddle trick disguised as a pen. Priced at $20, the gimmicked pen comes with six color options and a 17-minute tutorial by Eric Tate. While the pen attempts to blend in as an everyday item, its bold color dots still hint at its magical purpose. The review critiques the adaptation of the paddle move to the pen's round shape and discusses the included 1–6 force, suggesting alternatives for a more magical presentation. Despite its flaws, the Hot Rod Pen is recommended for beginners as a fun and portable option, though veterans might stick to the classic version.
