Magic Review - Popschticle by Pop Haydn & Deuce Gala
David from Magic Orthodoxy delivers a review of the 'Popschticle' prop by Pop Haydn and Deuce Gala, a clever gimmick designed to create a humorous visual. The Popschticle, resembling an ice cream bar (available in chocolate or creamsicle flavors), allows for a seemingly impossible bit where you openly place the prop in your pocket, retrieve an unwrapped ice cream bar, take a bite, and return it. While intuitive, a 30-minute download featuring Buck Bowen and Pop Haydn provides performance tips and demonstrations suitable for various settings like street magic, parlor shows, and stage performances. David emphasizes its suitability for children's magic and situations where a quick laugh is desired. The chocolate version costs $20, the creamsicle $25, and both for $42. He considers it a 'must-have' for magicians seeking a simple yet effective gag prop, praising Deuce Gala for the detailed instructional download and the prop's overall value. David also uses the opportunity to promote his Magic Orthodoxy membership, highlighting its benefits like exclusive reviews and tutorials.
