Plastique
Baffle a spectators brains with this one! Great new mentalism product from Larry Becker and Lee Earle.
Here are some details:
For starters, we've updated the classic 'Randomental' to use colorful and contemporary 'credit cards' that are common items in everyone's wallet or purse. These cards are of the identical commercial quality as those issued by banks, telephone companies, casinos, etc. In fact, they are made by the same company! All the numbers are part of the artwork, not mechanically embossed, so there are no indentations on the signature side of the cards to spoil their otherwise identical appearance.
Plastique completely eliminates any mental calculations, allowing you to focus your full attention where it should be - on entertaining your audience. You won't get the same total every time, by the way, and the potential combination of cards and numbers approaches the infinite!
Then we added the 'identity theft' routine, with a subtle, invisible gaff that will bring a smile to your face. This preparation allows for multiple versions of Psychometry or Living & Dead routines. Our routine is simple: since credit cards have a panel for signatures, why not use them? All you need is a water-erasable pen (such as those used on overhead transparencies) to write on the cards. A moist paper towel wipes the cards clean for the next show.
For a close-up quickie the 'coincidence' routine is a great mind-blower and just about as simple as can be. If you can deal cards from a deck, you'll have no problem with this one. It ends with a terrific audience "Aha!"
The 'pocket change' finish is the icing on the cake. There is one teeny, tiny 'move' with a single coin (not complex enough to call a sleight). If you have a thumb, you can do it. And you'll love the eleganant way we've embedded the gaff to do 99% of the work for you.
Naturally, you wouldn't do all of these routines for a single audience but they illustrate the versatility we've designed into this fabulous product to allow unlimited possibilities.
