Magic Review - The Dog by TCC Magic

David from Magic Orthodoxy delivers a thorough review of "The Dog" by TCC Magic, a clever trick that blends balloon animal artistry with card magic. The effect involves a spectator selecting a card, which seemingly vanishes, only to reappear playfully clipped between the paws of a newly created balloon dog, alongside a second revealed card. The package, priced at $35, includes specialized tools for loading cards into the balloon, a small supply of colored balloons, and a 33-minute instructional video (though it's not downloadable). While balloon-making skills are assumed, the video focuses on integrating card magic, mentioning techniques like card forces and the Mercury card fold. David highlights the trick's versatility for walk-around magic, children's parties, or clown acts, praising its visual appeal and novelty. He also recommends TCC Magic's affordable rope and rubber bands, emphasizing their importance in close-up magic. Overall, David enthusiastically recommends "The Dog" as a worthwhile and innovative addition to a magician's repertoire, offering a fresh and memorable routine for those already comfortable with balloon animals.
