It’s Saturday morning, 9:00, and time for the Monster Magic Saturday Show. Good morning! Despite the gloomy weather, let’s dive into the latest products on the Monster Magic site.
Jigsaw Deck by David Regal (£34.50)
A clever opener: you solve a wooden jigsaw puzzle that transforms into a full deck of cards. Strong premise, versatile handling (instant or delayed reveal), and even a sleight-of-hand version that leaves you clean. High-quality props, easy to perform, and full of personality.

Free Drinks by Peter Camp (£84.99)
A water-to-any-drink effect. Water poured into a glass instantly changes color to match the named drink. The gimmicked glass is smart, repeatable, and durable, though color choices can be limiting. Setup takes a few minutes, but the visual transformation is stunning.

Big Blind by Craig Petty (£42.99)
A mentalism routine with poker chips. A spectator freely thinks of a card, and their choice is revealed on the chips. Strong gambling premise, solid props, and several handlings (from sleight-heavy to easier purse-based). Not self-working but powerful and practical for walkaround or casual shows.

Mr. Dong by Murphy’s Magic (£10.50)
A revival of Goshman’s classic sponge gag. Comes with the “dong,” four sponge balls, and a mini version, plus excellent teaching by Javier Fuenmayor. Great comedy climax for sponge ball routines—perfect for adult audiences, less so for kids.
