Designed by Rich Bloch and Nick Ruggiero; with exclusive permission from George J. Cook. Newly redesigned by George Robinson from Viking Magic. Jumbo Sidekick is the single hottest stage and platform prop in the history of Collector's Workshop.
A spectator selects a card (say, the 4 of clubs) from a jumbo deck. Using a pistol, the spectator attempts to shoot the chosen card out of the deck…. But … BANG! the table drape falls off … BANG! .. the flower flies into the air … BANG! .. the entire table tips, dumping everything onto the floor, except a jumbo five of clubs, which adheres to the table…… “It’s not my card...,” says the spectator.
Not missing a beat, the performer takes the gun ……. “Let a professional handle this!”….and BANG! .. the performer shoots off the center pip. “It is now”, says the performer with a triumphant wink.
The entire unit is an electronic marvel. Only the finest workmanship can give such satisfying results.
All sound controlled from gun.
Comes complete, ready to work. Includes custom PVC case; table, base, vase and flower, all the decks (both regular jumbo cards and a custom printed alphabet deck), curtain, etc. Supply your own pistol (starting pistol with blanks).
