Streamlined 2.0 by David Penn & TCC (£55.99)
David Penn teams up with TCC again for a wallet effect inspired by Kenton Knepper’s Kolossal Killer. A spectator names any card—you remove an envelope from your wallet, tip it out, and it matches their choice. Plus, there’s a business card kicker prediction.
- Clean handling: wallet and a single envelope in play from the start.
- Great teaching from David with useful tips.
- Beautiful soft-leather wallet & clever envelopes.
- Some angle sensitivity, but overall one of the strongest, most practical versions of this classic plot.
Psyclip by Nicholas Lawrence ($29.99)
A gimmicked paperclip that bends, links, breaks, and restores right in your hands.
Nine short tutorials cover multiple routines.
- Looks natural, but fragile—carry it in a case, not your wallet.
- Switch needed if you want to hand out the clip.
- Handmade by Nicholas, super visual, and fun to perform.
The Vault Pro by David Penn, Wayne Fox and TCC (£77.50)
A signed coin (or ring) vanishes in flash paper and reappears inside a nest of brushed aluminum boxes on your keyring.
- Solid construction, built to last.
- Detailed teaching with smart subtleties on the vanish.
- Slightly bulky for keys, but very strong effect.
- Essentially a professional, portable nest of boxes.

The Lucky Game by Tora Magic (£105.99)
Stage/parlour routine: a board with 9 rods, a prize hidden on one. Spectator removes 8 rods, only the final one holds the prize.
• No electronics, just a clever self-working method.
• Nicely made in varnished wood.
• Packs reasonably flat, plays big.
• Tons of room for interaction and comedy a perfect 8-minute routine.
The tutorial/performance doesn't seem to show how to set it up in full view.
It can be noisy.
