 Hey everybody, welcome back to Magic Orthodoxy, my name's David and this is a Magic Review. Hey, today we're going to look at the Pocket Sans Minds Sharpie. What is it? It's a moving ink effect. It's a pen, it's a gimmicked pen that allows you to do very highly visual moving ink effects, whether they be on skin, on glass or even wood surfaces. If you'd like to take a look at it, this is it. A while back we created a game-changing 3-in-1 Sharpie marker for magicians' everyday use. It allowed you to perform impossible ink moving effects on the fly. Now, we're bringing you something even better. Imagine being able to do all the miracles that the classic Sans Minds Sharpie can, but more pocket-friendly and manageable. We proudly present to you the Pocket Sans Minds Sharpie. Simply slap it on your K-Chain and it's ready whenever you are. Use it as a permanent marker to have a card signed. Dry a race marker for those mentalism applications. Or even a moving ink marker for some truly crazy visual effects. The ink is non-toxic and there's no extra chemicals or props to carry around, so you don't have to compromise your precious pocket space. With something so compact, bigger is not always better. It's the ultimate tool disguised as an everyday Sharpie. So what are you waiting for? Once it's in your hands, you'll always be ready to perform. Get it now worldwide. Once you learn the gimmick, once you've learned how to use this and see its properties, I think you're only limited by your own imagination. Alright, so a couple questions we always ask about all of our magic reviews and the first of which is, what is in the box? What's in the box? You're getting a DVD, 53 minutes. You're almost getting an hour's worth of instruction and it's just packed full of ideas that I think will greatly enhance your use of this gimmick. And then of course you're actually getting the gimmick itself. This is about how big it is in comparison with the size of a DVD and like you can see there's a little tiny pocket keychain attachment at the top which is removable and so those are the two items that you're getting with this magic effect. Is it what I thought? I didn't really know what to think. I didn't have the original version and so I wasn't sure what to expect with this. It wasn't a complete surprise when I saw it, but it certainly was creative. Alright, so how are the angles on this? There are no angles. It's a pen, it's examinable, the spectator watches you right. There might be some angles depending on the trick that you're doing where you're trying to hide something and then you reveal it later but I think with really well performed and practiced routines I don't think you'll have to worry about angles with this at all. Can it be inspected? For the most part I think the pen could be inspected but it certainly writes. I don't know what they would try to find with it. The cool thing about it is it looks like a real Sharpie marker and so there really wouldn't be anybody probably grabbing at it saying, oh, let me see that pen. Alright, so what's the overall quality and production value of the DVD? Like I said, it's 53 minutes long, it's jam packed with instruction and teaching. It's all shot in HD, well, microphone, good performance views, good performance areas, everything you'd expect from Sam's minds. Alright, so is it well made? It looks exactly like a real Sharpie marker. It says Sharpie Mini on there, cap comes off, looks clean, looks examinable. This is everything that you would expect a tiny Mini Sharpie marker to look like because it is and so it's really well made. How much practice does it require? Almost none. I was able to do some of these effects right out of the box with just a couple of practice and trial runs on my own skin or on my own table and yeah, it's going to be easy for you I think and certainly something that would be quick to pick up on, quick to learn and easy to perform. How much setup and reset is there? There's virtually none. You're putting it in your pocket and you're good to go. Like I said, many of these tricks you'll probably just think up on the fly while you're out and about and you'll be able to adapt this to any performance area where you are whether it be at a restaurant or out, walking around on the street. Alright, so what are the positives to this? The positives are it takes the classic Sam's Mind Sharpie and puts it into a tiny vessel. You're able to keep it on your key chain, take it with you wherever you go. Snap it on your key chain and forget about it. Always able to do an ink effect on the fly wherever you are. Looks visual, highly creative, awesome, awesome, awesome. Alright, so what are the negatives to this? You know, like we say around here, there's negatives to everything. These are just the negatives that I see. They don't have to be the negatives that you see. The first of which is to get the ink to come off of someone's skin takes a little bit more than just what you see in the video and the video they kind of make it look like it's super simple. There is a way to make it super simple. It's going to take more from you than just what is given. You'll have to do some setup kind of like on the side of your pocket or some other way. I tried to do it my own way and it didn't really work as well as I thought it would. So I would probably listen to them and follow their instruction rather than come up with your own creative way. So yeah, taking ink off of skin isn't always, I think, the easiest one of all the others but I think with the right approach you might be able to work around it. Alright, so is it worth your money? It's $25, you're getting the gimmick and the DVD. I think that's totally legitimate, totally worth your money and if this is something that interests you, I would highly recommend picking it up. Alright, so who would like this? I think people that do street magic especially would like this. It's definitely in that kind of zone, has that definite kind of on the street kind of feel to it. If you like shock magic and things that you're writing on something and then people freak out and you're saying, no, no, no, I can take it off, that's definitely cool too. And just, you know, anybody that uses a Sharpie marker in their routine with their card magic, I think would definitely like the Pocket Sans Mine Sharpie.
