Best Magic Tricks Awards 2016

The Best Magic Tricks of 2016

2016 brought us a range of diverse magic not seen in recent years. Most areas of magic received innovation, and although there were quite a few lackluster releases, the year saw some huge hits!

How the award winning magic tricks are selected.

MoM is a magic shop and market place for magicians. So, right from the start we should point out that we stock most of the items that have won a best magic tricks award. However, Merchant of Magic is a ‘whole of market’ magic shop, with over 27,000 different magic tricks on sale. Merchant of Magic accepts no payment from manufacturers for listing in this award list. We have not included many items that are produced by The Merchant of Magic, so as to be as impartial as possible.

The winners of a best magic trick 2016 award are chosen from these sources of opinion:

  • Customer feedback.
  • Quantity of sales.
  • Level of returns.
  • The views of magic shop demonstrators.
  • Reviews and feedback from magic forums.
  • Real world testing by professional magicians.

The list is in no particular order.

Svengali Force Pad

Svengali Force Pad

Although Svenglai Force Pads have been around for many years, 2016 saw the popularity of the device, shoot through the roof. Appearances on AGT and BGT caught the attention of magicians worldwide.

There are so many applications for the Svengali Force pad for both complete beginners through to professional entertainers. Hands down this utility device wins an award this year!  Find out more

 

Steam 2.0

Steam 2.0

Steam 2.0 arrived at the beginning of 2016 and sold out consistently all through the year. Here’s why: You instantly know what she secretly wrote on a blank business card… while the face-down card is covered by her hand — or a bunch of hands — or even a book! This REALLY works and is basically self-working..    Find out more

 

 

 

Priceless Priceless - Best Magic Tricks

Michel Huot and Richard Sanders gave the magic world a wonderful piece of magic that was a hit with walk-around as well as stage magicians.

The Vanishing Ring Box

Vanishing Ring Box

Magicians have had a love/hate relationship with Sansmind, the makers of this magician’s ring box. When The vanishing Ring Box was released, it was marketed in their PRO SERIES, but that did not stop magicians worrying that the product was nothing more than hype. When The Vanishing Ring Box hit stores, it silenced all the doubters. This delivers the goods and is now a tried and tested prop for many of the worlds best gigging magicians Find out more.

 

 

Strongman - Best Magic Tricks

Strongman by Jimmy Strange

Jimmy Strange’s unique and twisted take on what magicians can do is clearly evident in the release of Strongman. Nut and bolt effects tend to focus on a nut moving up and down a bolt by itself, Strongman moves in another direction, giving magicians the power to hand out a nut and bolt for examination, moments before the magician bends it slowly at the fingertips. The design and production of Strongman is stunning, and it’s owned by some of the leading magicians in magic including Dynamo magician impossible. Easy to do, self contained and very entertaining.   Find out more.

The set is well made and the chips can even be customised.  Find out more.

 

 

Magma Best magic tricks 2016

Magma

Quite unique.. Magma was created by Kyle Marlett as a ‘special effect’ rather than a trick in itself. It looks awesome, as the magician makes a fist and it slows white hot! Very simple to use, and easy to add to so many effects, when you want  to signal ‘the moment the magic happens’, Magma is a lot of fun to perform and gets wonderful reactions. Find out more.

 

 

 

 

Fall Best Magic TricksFall

Psychokinetic pens are not new.. But having one that actually looks good, has only just happened. FALL is a very clever and practical self toppling sharpie pen and it works like a charm.
