Joshua Jay’s bestselling “Prism Deck” is now better than ever. The addition of a brand-new custom “Prism Plus” gimmick adds a hyper-visual, CGI-level finale to this complete act that fits in your pocket.

The “Prism Deck” is one of the most popular, and best-reviewed color-changing decks ever made. Perfected over 20+ years and 1,000s of performances, this stunning full-deck color change happens entirely in your hands. The backs of all 52 cards change, including some cards that your participant is holding in their hands. All with no deck switch required!

“Stunning, practical, logical and astonishing!" Wayne Houchin

While the color-changing deck is the core routine, there are actually 20 effects built into this versatile deck of cards. From a Triumph routine to an Ace Location and even one of the most unique spins on the Chicago Opener you’ll ever see, there is so much hard-hitting card magic built into the “Prism Deck”. All of these effects strike the perfect balance between being amazing and practical, and most of them are easy to do.

Josh never goes to a show without his “Prism Deck”. It was already one of the strongest effects he performs, and his go-to effect for impressing everyone from celebrities to presidents. But now, thanks to the incredible new “Prism Plus” gimmick, it has been catapulted to an entirely new level.

"Joshua Jay's ‘Prism’ has plenty of ideas you will like and use." Roberto Giobbi

What Is “Prism Plus”?

“Prism Plus” is a special set that includes a “Prism Deck” and the “Prism Plus Gimmick”.

The “Prism Deck” has been given a facelift with the addition of some new designs and is now printed on USPCCs premium crushed card stock, making the cards a joy to handle.

The star addition though is the handmade “Prism Plus” gimmicked card designed in collaboration with Nicholas Lawrence. This is your key to easily performing an eye-popping, one-handed finale to your color-changing deck routine. It looks like real magic and will even deceive your own eyes.

It’s a unique design that offers the same striking visuals of a flap card without the traditional restrictions of your normal flap card. You won’t have to worry about fragile gimmicks breaking or having to prep and hold the card awkwardly. This gimmick is built to last, is easy to use, resets quickly and has no angle restrictions.

In the detailed instructions, Josh shows you how to string together effects into a complete routine with multiple magical moments that all play a role in convincing your audience that all the back designs are the same. This makes the final full-deck change a truly unexplainable stunner.

"A versatile concept and a professionally produced tool" Pit Hartling

**Please Note: **You do not need to purchase anything additional to perform The Prism Deck Routine – just use a few cards from any old deck you already own with a design you like. However, if you would like to perform the trick with Phoenix Ace designs (which have larger pips), you will need to purchase an additional Phoenix regular pack. If you wish to do the full eight-minute routine, this requires four red Phoenix Jokers. This means you would need two red (or blue) Phoenix decks.

To summarize: if you would like to do this trick exactly as it appears in the trailer, consider purchasing a couple regular, red Phoenix Decks here. If you prefer to perform the trick by finding four Kings in, say, a green or yellow or checkered deck, you don't need to purchase anything additional. The PRISM Plus does not come with the Red Phoenix box.

The "Prism Plus" deck can be used with any deck of cards you normally use. You'll just need to take out any four of a kind and add them to the "Prism" deck and pop them into the card case you normally use and you're good to go.

If you would like to do the routine with the Phoenix playing card Aces, you will need to purchase a regular Phoenix deck.

If you want to do the complete, full, extended, ten minute routine Joshua teaches in the instructions, you'll need four Phoenix Jokers, so would need to purchase two additional Phoenix decks.

TDog

I ordered the original, Prism Deck & received the download for Prism Plus. I do not normally use trick decks at all, however, this is the one exception that I have made. This is truly phenomenal. I perform this as both part of my close-up sets and part of my stage show. One major benefit to this is that you can perform many tricks with the deck before doing the colour changing sequence. Having each card with a different back design is so much stronger than doing a regular colour changing deck.

 
Reviewer

Vince

The Prism Plus is much more than a color-changing deck routine. The magician could really create and entire act. The deck is of excellent quality and if you own a Phantom Deck you can have a fantastic presentation that can be used as an opener in a parlour atmosphere. The instructions are excellent and great demonstrations. Highly recommended. A+++++++++++. If you do card magic and you want a real stunner this is it.

 
Reviewer

Bill

I am very pleased and happy with this gimmick. This may be one of the best color changing decks that i have come across so far. I was also very amazed at the high quality of the deck. Another big surprise was that there were so many different tricks included and many different ways to perform the tricks, depending on your skill level, that a beginner or professional can easily execute. The video that came with it was well thought out and very clear to understand, and the demos explained to me clearly how to perform the many different tricks. It was easy to download as well as to follow. Love this gimmick. Would highly recommend!

This effect is amazing. I only perform the basic handling, but it still elicits some of the best reactions I’ve ever gotten. However, the Prism Plus gimmick really only works with red Phoenix backs, and as such I wouldn’t recommend trying to use other cards with it. Regardless of this, I love Prism Plus, and I’m sure you will too. In Josh’s book ‘MAGIC: The Complete Course’ he details a method of marking your gaff decks on the white space of the card box seal to easily differentiate them from one another.

The best coulor-changing deck I know. Also in the tutorial you receive a full routine with some of the greatest card tricks off all time. Totally worth!

Reviewer

The prism plus deck is a real work horse. The product has already received enough positive reviews to convince anyone that it’s worth the buy, but I must add that the effects performed before the color changing deck climax are hard hitting and can stand on there own. The gimmick is also easily restored once it becomes worn. Excellent all around.

Everything has already been said in other reviews. Here's the last five star review you need to see to convince you to GET THIS RIGHT NOW. IT'S THE BEST OF THE BEST!!!

 
Reviewer

I can highly recommend this deck as I bought the original and now that Josh as supplied a new gimmick this makes the trick a lot stronger than before the teaching by Josh as you would expect is second to none and is very modular you can make the performance as long and as short as you would like this is a real winner and would recommend picking up the phantom deck as well as this makes the ending even stronger.

It has been great!! I have also the old Prism Deck and there are a lot of new ideas with this new Prism Plus. I'm very happy with this new item. Thank you so much!!!

 
Reviewer

David H.

The Prism Plus is much more than a color-changing deck routine. With the material provided, a performer could develop a complete close-up act. The quality of the deck (along with the new prism gimmick) is high. By investing a few bucks in the Phantom Deck (also a quality prop), you have a great closing effect. The accompanying video is very well done as well, with clear explanations and demonstrations. I highly recommend.

 
Reviewer

Laura Bautista

Joshua Jay has done it again. Prism Plus is pure revolution! This is not a trick, not even a card magic routine. In this small package that you can purchase for 29 pounds you will find up to 5 different routines. A combination of effects that one after the other leads you to create the most amazing changing deck you have ever seen. Get some red Phoenix and if you also have the Phantom Deck, you will have a great performance of at least 15 minutes.

The BEST rainbow deck EVER! I bought the regular prism 3 years ago and have been using it ever since. since adding the prism PLUS to the mix, i enjoy performing it even more! it turned the almost sleight free routine to almost self working! I think this rainbow deck is better than the other version since the cards actually look like cards you could've been collecting over time. also, the bonus features of the cards make them amazing for tricks (before or after) the basic routine. (the bonus cards are also really cool, and have a some really nice effects).
Highly recommended for everyone!

 
Reviewer

Bill

So many different individual tricks included that I did not know even came with it. Video for the trick is easy to download and very easy to follow. They give you like three different ways to do the trick so depending on your skill level, you can definitely get the job done. Would definitely recommend.

 
Reviewer

To me, Prism Plus is the perfect card routine to use as a closer. Each piece of magic builds to a better piece.

 
Reviewer

David

Simple methods yet powerful magic. The card designs are beautiful. Prism is just fun both for me and the people I’m doing the magic for.

 
Reviewer

Martin

This is such a well thought out routine. However, as a complete newcomer to this type of performance, I expect it will take me a considerable amount of time to learn it. Clearly Josh’s explanation is aimed at the more experienced performers and I would like to see an additional tutorial that is aimed more at the novice.

I must admit, I missed the note in the ’blurb’ saying I needed additional cards, so I had to wait for my Pheonix decks to arrive!

I can’t wait to learn this routine!

 
Reviewer

David

I like the idea of cards being face up and face down in the spectators hands for the triumph portion of the routine this is a very nice touch, i think. Also the advice about how to convince the audience that the deck is all red is sound, good theory. The routine is well explained and Josh takes his time with you sharing a wonderful effect.

 
Reviewer

Simply my go to closer for the last 5 years. I was lucky enough to get a Prism Plus gimmick 5 years ago at a lecture in Newcastle, England. The gimmick has never failed me in all that time. I have bought again because everything was starting to look worn... what do you expect from all that usage. Superb routine when coupled with Phantom Deck... Bravo Mr Jay!!

Reviewer

Shawn

As soon as I saw Josh brought this back out, I immediately bought it. This is perfectly shot in detail and in video quality. Nothing is left unanswered, giving you a basic 60 secs routine to a full blown 6-10 min routine that packs such a power punch, with magic happening in their hands! You’ll also definitely wanna pick yourself up the phantom deck as well if you don’t own one. I took the deal with all three (the deluxe carrier and phantom) making for the perfect routine for walk around. The cards are absolutely beautiful as you can see just from the product page. I was very happy to see how easy the gimmick is to use, and the repair is super easy, from what Jay is describing, as he doesn’t actually show how to repair it, which is a bummer but not enough to knock off any stars. The other little bummer if you’re like me, you NEED two Phoenix decks if you wanna perform the mac daddy routine. He says you can perform this with whatever cards you like, but if you wanna use the gimmick, and the multi color aces that’s come with the deck, you’ll need 1-2 Phoenix decks. Again, this isn’t a big enough of a problem to knock off any stars, i just would’ve liked to have known so I could’ve added a brick to my order along with the other stuff I got, especially since it turns out to only be 48$ for said brick!! I might have switch from P3bikes to phoenix with those prices!! Overall I’m over the moon about this, and can’t wait to start performing it right away.

I am so happy; thrilled even, to own this! I missed it before but it’s back and better than ever! The instructional video seems to be newly recorded, so it’s great quality. It’s so dense in terms of material that it can take so organizing your get straight with what you want to learn. Luckily with the download, it organized the routines by depth of performance; from simple to deluxe. I’m super happy with this and can’t wait to get performing!

 
Reviewer

Benjamin

These are great routines, that are well thought out! There are a lot of options here. The cards clearly work for a color changing deck/rainbow deck routine, but many cards are multipurpose and double as a gaff or revelation!

 
Reviewer

Aleksandra

All of the praise you've heard of PRISM by Joshua Jay exists for a reason, this trick is really out of this world. This is most certainly the best color-changing deck effect ever created. The DVD and download instructions provided after purchasing this effect are also unmatched by any other product of this kind. Joshua tells you everything you need to know about performing the trick while giving you tips and advice on presentation. Included with the deck are a few extra cards that you can use to perform with the color-changing deck, or by themselves. You will not be disappointed after purchasing this, the PRISM deck is a reputation maker that you will be performing for a long time.

 
Reviewer

Gary

Josh has come out with a very clever deck in prism you have got a complete act here with the routines taught and this is your perfect closer routine because all routines are very strong and the audience will not see the end coming and the fact it comes at a great price its well worth the money recommended.

 
Reviewer

This I truly love. Such a great deck so many possibilities. The routines that Joshua preforms and teaches are great. As always. I have been after a good rainbow deck for some time now but have always been dissatisfied with other products. This however hits the nail right on the head. ??

The amount of value that comes with this one deck is ridiculous. You get a full blown commercial routine, not just a single colour changing deck trick. Hit after hit of strong magic.

When I first saw this on Chris Ramsay's YouTube channel I was floored and immediately shot over to VanishingInc to purchase this. It did not disappoint let me tell you! This is a brilliant effect! Please restock the refill decks so I can get another one!

 
Reviewer

Christopher

The construction of the deck is really well thought out and executed, enabling both a really strong rainbow deck as well as a series of other tricks with gaffed cards and stacks.

Even stronger is the overall routine that Joshua uses to demonstrate a lot of magic very cleanly with a gaffed deck. The routine he teaches is very approachable, with options to use simpler sleights depending on skill level. In addition, you could add in several other tricks (Twisting the Aces, etc.) if you want to lengthen the set.

Strongly recommended.

 
Reviewer

Kole

PRISM deck is awesome! I love to practice it and will hopefully perform it soon.
One thing is that, for the color changing deck routine, one should have included a Phoenix ace card, as it is not possible to perform without.

Reviewer

Ethan

This trick is super amazing, it is one of the best color changing decks ever! The coolest part is that you do not need to do a deck swich. The trick is fairly easy and works very well. The cards are printed on Phoenix card stock so they will last you a long time. All you need to preform this trick is the prism deck and a red backed phenolic deck. The instructions are very good quality and they teach you everything you need to know. If your a fan of color changing decks, this is the trick for you.

 
Reviewer

Patrick T

This is worth every penny! Indeed it is pure genius. PRISM is everything promised. You can perform a routine, and the color change is merely icing on the cake! While you will want to have some basics down, like a double lift, although this is definitely at least an intermediate effect, you can learn all you need from the 45 min (or so) DVD. The artwork is great, and indeed there is careful attention to detail, and many more things built into the deck that are very very useful and will have your imagination going wild on new possibilities. This really is a must-have deck. This exceed my expectations, and was a real value and much more than I thought!

 
Reviewer

Ari

I mean... what can you say about this that isn't good? Absolutely nothing!!!

Josh has put so much time and effort into the Prism Deck - from the design of the deck and each individual card, to the routine, to extra tricks that are built in, and the professional and educational instructional DVD.

There's not much else to say about this effect than that you should already have it in your repertoire, and if not... what are you waiting for?!

 
Reviewer

Lewis

Use this all the time what a fantastic effect.

 
Reviewer

Jack

Enough has already been written about how great this deck is, and I agree completely. I thought I'd mention the nice clear plastic case it comes in. I'd buy a few if they were available separately. They'd be great for extra protection of my collector's deck, or for certain mentalism routines,or imagine Josh's 'Phantom Deck' where not only the cards turning blank, but the case as well.

 
Reviewer

Jeremy

This will get your creative juices flowing, and I have invented a few effects based on some of the cards in this deck. The cards themselves are very high quality. Everything, the different effects are all high quality. Be warned however- this will take some practice. There is only one moderately difficult sleight that can be accomplished with just a few hours of practice. I'm not going to get into huge detail about the methodology here, but it is very manageable.
The video teaches many effects, and the core routine (Jay's ace location and color-changing deck finish) is taught in great detail.
What surprised me the most about this product was how high quality the DVD, the cards, and everything was for just $30.
So, do I recommend it? Absolutely. Everything about this deck and the DVD blew me away. You may have to purchase an item to be able to do the "Ror-shock" effect but it is very cheap. I cannot stress this enough. If you want something you can perform right away, don't get this. If you want something that will get you insane reactions, get the PRISM deck now. (Oh, and if you don't already have one, a red Phoenix deck is pretty much mandatory for the full effect.

Joshua Jay lectured at our SAM#4 meeting in Philadelphia last week. I highly recommend attending one of his lectures. Joshua performed quite a few affects including the Prism deck!

Reviewer

It is unbelievable how much thought went into this deck! Every single card has so much cool stuff built in it will blow your mind! And like mentioned above this isnt a CC Deck trick, its a entire 7-10 minute (customizable) routine that culminates in not only the deck changing into this super visual beautiful rainbow deck, but also Aces in the SPECTATORS HANDS CHANGE! Do no underestimate the effect this routine has on laymen, What a beautiful product and very reasonably priced!

I could go on and on about this product, but I'll keep it short and sweet. The DVD is well produced, chocked full of ideas and squeezes every bit of entertainment possible out of the Color Changing Deck routine. It is easy to follow and is a springboard to the things that are possible with this deck. The PRISM deck itself is well made, has more bell and whistles than a Rolls Royce and is truly a work of art and makes all of the things you always wanted to incorporate into the routine possible. Add on top of that all the extra bits and routines you get with cards separated from the deck and incorporated elsewhere and you have quite possibly one the best deals around! Highly recommended!!!

I absolutely love this routine! The deck is well made and Josh's routine is just the type of magic I love VERY well thought out. Audiences love it, and it's even fun to practice. For many years, my closer during walk-around has always been signed card to impossible location; be it wallet, box, shoe...whatever. I searched for other card closers, but to me nothing was nearly as close. Now, I can walk into a gig with 2 completely different top shelf closers. AND, with this one, no losing cards by the end of the night! I love all the little extras hidden in certain cards as well, like the 52 on one gag and the coupon card.

Brilliant work Josh, Andi and Christian!

This is a fantastic product at a great price. The deck itself is quite attractive, the instruction on the DVD is top-notch, and the featured routines are very strong. All but one of the routines in the main set can be done in the spectator's hands in a walk-around setting without a table. The whole set is modular so you can mix and match, add and subtract to it (and in particular the routine which requires a table can be left out -- though it's a terrific effect). The whole set ends with a color-changing deck finale with an additional kicker that happens in the spectator's hands -- all without a deck switch of any kind. To me what really distinguishes this product, though, are all the extra ideas, alternate handlings, bonus routines, and bonus props which are included. Some of these are really good! This is a great product which beginners and working professionals alike can get a lot out of.

 
Reviewer

Ben "Super Stud"

If this was 'just' a color changing deck routine it would still be a great value. But it isn't just a color changing deck routine. It's a complete act. Cards transpose, thoughts are read, aces are produced and finally, after 8 minutes of incredibly commercial card magic, the deck, impossibly, changes. It's a stunning ending to a set that NO ONE would see coming. You get a beautifully produced deck and tons of great ideas to help you put together the perfect material for your act. Finally I can get rid of my mutilated parasols closer and do something that people will actually love. Thanks Josh!

The prism plus deck is a wonderful creation, and would recommend it to all magicians. However, you may want to invest in a phoenix deck of red cards whilst buying this, although it is not strictly necessary, and this was the only problem i really faced when using the prism plus deck.

Make sure and buy two red phoenix decks so you can actually practice the trick when u receive it. I wish I had known this before hand.

 
Reviewer

Paul

My Prism Plus cards came in a Prism Plus case that has "A Color Changing Deck by Joshua Jay" printed on the back. So I have to buy a regular red Phoenix deck of cards as part of convincing the audience that I am not using a tricked deck, but a regular red Phoenix deck of cards.

The Super Deluxe routine that Josh teaches us starts off with 4 regular jokers. No jokers came with the Prism Plus deck. So to have 4 jokers available to do the routine, now, I have to buy not one, but two regular red Phoenix decks just to have 4 jokers -- not really what I expected, not really practical, not so cool!

As a result of the above discrepancies, the excitement, the anticipation of exploring the Prism Plus routine, is now delayed, if not VANISHED! No pun intended. Please package your products according to what you have advertised and plan to teach so there would not be any speed bump in our expectations! There is plenty of room to fit 4 jokers in the envelop for the gimmick card -- just a suggestion.

Melanie

Today I received the deck with 52 different back designs. The variety in designs is impressive, adding a unique dynamic to the experience. Another positive aspect is the well-crafted explanations found in the accompanying video. They are clear and easy to understand, facilitating the learning of tricks.

However, there are several drawbacks. First, additional cards not included in the set are required to perform all the tricks. Second, for the full routine, especially the deluxe version, an additional deck is necessary. Moreover, the box, which is repeatedly mentioned in the video, is not included. This means I need to purchase a completely new deck to fully utilize the product. This information was not mentioned in the product description, which is disappointing. As a buyer, I would have liked to know before purchasing that additional investments are necessary to utilize all the features of the deck.

The biggest issue is that I couldn't start practicing the tricks right away due to the lack of additional components. This led to frustration as my expectations were not met. It would have been helpful if these requirements had been clearly stated in the product description, allowing for an informed purchasing decision.

Overall, while the deck offers great potential with its diverse designs and good instructions, the need for additional cards, an additional deck, and the absence of the mentioned box, along with the lack of comprehensive product information, significantly diminish the overall experience.

 
Reviewer

PRISM Deck is primarily a deck of gaff cards to be used by the individual in whatever routines he can imagine. The deck is distributed through "Card Shark" so cards with a regular back design, have the Phoenix back design. The hype is greater than the actual usage. Good quality and possesses the potential for many different routines that the individual can imagine and create.

 
Reviewer

Thushar

This is a sub standard product the gimmick broke right away and the deck does not have a bicycle design u have to make lot of adjustments to make the effect convincing. A very ordinary colour changing deck routine if you take away the gimmick. 40 usd is absolutely not justified for a ordinary deck of cards with different back designs

Have a question about this product? It's possible others do too. Ask here and other Vanishing Inc. Magic customers will be able to respond with assistance! Alternatively, email us and we can help too.

  • Jordan asks: Can I use aces from another deck, like bikes, for the full effect? Does the trick require Phoenix aces?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: The Aces need to be from a Phoenix deck. But if you wanted to use Bicycle cards, you could use Kings.
  • Edmund asks: Are these actually 52 cards with 52 different backs. I am asking as i have a specific use in mind beyond the routines provided.

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: Yes - 52 different back designs.
  • Byron asks: Does the video show how to switch out the deck? How long to reset? Regards, Byron

    • 1. Nevio answers: A switch is not necessary. Especially if you do the long routine, they just see red backs over and over again. It‘s really clever. The box is also red.
    • 2. Todd answers: The main effect does not involve a "traditional" switch.
    • 3. Sam answers: Nope! the instruction video does not teach you how to switch to PRISM deck, Josh just starts with the PRISM deck. But you can use any deck switch you wish. The reset is very quick just take around 10 seconds I think

  • Anh Dao asks: Does this come with a prism deck ?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: It is the PRISM deck, so yes, the deck is included.
  • Enoch asks: Do all the cards have the same feel? Or do some cards feel like Bicycle , some like Elephant ,some like Cartamundi ect. Thanks!

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: Yes, they all have the same feel and stock.
  • Enoch asks: Is this a gimmicked deck or just a regular deck with different backs?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: It is a regular deck with different backs but the deck is gimmicked in a sneaky way too. Plus a lot of the back designs do individual tricks.
  • Evan asks: I have--and love--the original Prism. Can you say a bit more about what's different here? I know the deck is redesigned, that the visual change is included, but what about the tutotial. Is it laregely the same, or is there new material?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: The tutorial is mainly the same.
  • Emir asks: It says that we can see the full routine including the Phantom deck, but I cannot find it anywhere. Can you kindly post the link to the routine?

    • 1. Nevio answers: I don't have a performance sadly, but I'll try to describe the full routine as good as possible: You start out with "Be Honest - what is it" sometimes also known as "2 Card monte". The two red aces in their hand switch places with two jokers that you just put in your pocket - you continue with a card under box routine, where first each of the aces jumps under the box and then the whole deck is gone and reappears under the box. (one of my favourite moments in the routine) - next you let them peak at a card, read their mind and find out their card. It turns out that you had that card in your pocket as well (optional thing to do). Then you do a triumph where you find all the aces in a deck which is chaotically shuffled face-up and face-down. Each aces "gets harder to find". For the last ace all the cards turn over just one card is facing down and it indeed is the last ace. -- This seems to be the big finale, you give the aces to the spectator to hold onto. You take the deck and wave over it - the whole deck changes color. The whole deck? The spectator check out their aces and they have changed color as well. If you want (and have phantom deck) you can then also make all the cards go transparent. It's a super cool (optional) ending. ---- I hope that I was able to help you with my description of the effect. If you choose to buy it, I wish you the best of fun while performing! -Nevio

  • Christopher asks: Will there be an option to buy extra plus gimmicks without buying the deck or just a refill without instructions?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: Hopefully in the future but the gimmick is very easy to repair should it break.
  • Richard asks: I agree. I'd like to see the full routine before I purchase. Can you please provide a link?

    • 1. Nevio answers: Hi, I don't think that there is a full performance and in my opinion it would be on Vanishing INCs part to post one. However, as a owner of the PRISM Deck, I can assure you, that it's going to be one of the best closers with cards, that you will be able to do. It's crazy good. The Deluxe Routine (the long one) Is like seven minutes and has so many moments of magic in it.

  • Jay asks: If I add a/the card required, can a signed card to impossible location be done before the last flash changed to all different backs?

    • 1. Nevio answers: If you are able to force a card face up (without showing the backs), then yes - should work. The deck has different backs the whole time, so as long as you don‘t show the deck face down in spread, you are fine.

  • Philip asks: I have and love the Prism deck. Will the additional card be available to purchase on its own?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: It will not.
  • Tom asks: How many of the suggested effects do not require a surface (i.e., can be done in the hands)?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: All of the effects can be done in the hands
  • Martin asks: What is the level of difficulty with the routines?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: Beginner to advanced.
  • John asks: How much sleight of hand is involved? I have less dexterity in my left hand due to a disorder, and sleight of hand can be a challenge for me.

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: There is a bit of sleight of hand involved except the color change at the end.
  • Michael asks: Does the prism Plus gimmick require the use of a Phoenix deck? And what are you limited to if you only have bikes?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: Yes it does.
  • Nevio asks: This looks great! I love my original PRISM Deck. Does Joshua explain how he uses the PRISM Deck combined with the phantom deck in the download? What exactly is new about the download?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: Yup. It's a totally new download, that teaches a "deluxe" version that explains the combination with "Phantom Deck". (and how the gimmicked new card works too!)
  • Andrew asks: How fast is the reset for strolling, etc?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: About 30 seconds.
  • Gaia asks: Are there interesting routines that can be done after showing the deck has changed backs? I know this is not the intended purpose, but I use a color changing deck after a routine I do and I switch deck. I would still love to use the same routine but do more stuff after the deck has changed

    • 1. Nevio answers: This is meant as a closer. It‘s a super strong piece of magic and will be hard to follow. Joshua doesn‘t explain any further tricks that can be done with the deck, but you probably could come up with your own. Just to mention it - in the tutorial Joshua goes over finishing the routine with the phantom deck as an ending, which is cool

  • Matthew asks: Couldn't you just add a gimmick to your existing Prism for the "CGI-style finale"? It would be nice just to have an add-on option as a separate purchase for people who forked out for the original.

    • 1. Nevio answers: You could, but in the answer to another question they said that they will not sell it individually. Wether it's due to making more profit or just to it being not worth selling just one single gimmicked card, I don't know

  • Nicholas asks: For the full routine with the aces, do I need one Phoenix deck or two? If the latter, should they be the same color or different colors?

    • 1. Nevio answers: For the full routine you need - 4 Red Phoenix Aces, 4 Phoenix Jokers and one random indifferent phoenix card. - If you have an old phoenix deck you can just take the two old jokers and buy one new instead of two new phoenix decks. -- Hope that helps :)

  • Stephen asks: Do you sell decks of cards like the "plus" card? It would be nice to be able to also do a color changing deck that's not rainbow, and that's a cool design.

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: We do not unfortunately. That card was specifically made for this effect.
  • John asks: A you provide a link to the matching Phoenix decks (2 red) to buy that match the routine? Don’t want to get the wrong ones. Would be nice as a package with Prism.

    • 1. Jack answers: If you search for red Phoenix decks on the VI website, you should see them

  • Neil asks: I have the original plus gimmick bought from Blackpool years ago. Is this the same gimmick or is it a new method for the instant change at the finale?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: It is a similar deck (some updated back designs) but you’re getting the instant change gimmick that wasn’t included in the original.
  • Brian asks: I have original prism deck so can you get the one gimmicked card separately as you dont need anything else if decks the same

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: Unfortunately, this is sold in the whole package.
  • Adam asks: When will this be available again?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: We're working on getting more! Please hit add to cart to be notified the moment they arrive.
  • Len asks: I'm a real beginner with not much talent, is this suitable trick where the cards do most of the work? Is its good for a real beginner?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: This does require some sleights, it is possible for a beginner but would require a lot of practice
  • Christian asks: What doesn’t come with this effect is there anything I need to prepare myself

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: You do need to have an extra, ungimmicked deck of cards (ex: Phoenix Deck or Bicycle Deck) to perform the main routine. However, many of the other routines can be done without.
  • Christian asks: Are you able to do tricks with the normal cards before making them change? And can you change them change back and forth from bicycle cards to color cards?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: If you watch the full performance, you'll see Josh has built in several tricks that are done with the rainbow deck, but you'd never realise it was a rainbow deck because of the clever structure. The deck is ALWAYS the special deck, it's just hidden cleverly. So to specifically answer your second question, no you cannot make them change back, because it was never a regular deck to begin with.
  • Ed asks: How durable is the actual deck of cards? If this become a worker and I were to perform this walkaround at events a few times a week then the deck is going to be ruined pretty quickly and having to buy everything again at the full rate is probably not a solution for me.

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: The deck is printed on regular card stock so it will wear out with heavy usage. But as long as you keep the deck in the box in between performances and do not get it wet or dirty, it will last a long time.
