I would love to find some "Manipulation Cigarettes."

Any ideas?

Actually, Ultraslice comes with 10 of those cigarettes so it's a perfect source.

Thanks Steve,

I wanted extra "Tenyo" manipulation cigarettes for those special times when I do Zig Zag Cig, and want to stick a "hatpin" into the center compartment. In my opinion, the Magic Works "Severed Skeleton" is superior to "Zig Zag Cig" due to placing the Sword into the middle section and restoring. (Visually stunning)

I don't particularly care for the use of Golf pencils, rolled Dollar bills, etc.

I bet that there are many other great ideas for Zig Zag Cig, it's a very cool effect!

Cigarettes used will need to be replaced ... and I need a few for missing/discolored ones.

I think that some cigarettes are on the way ...

Thanks again,
Bob~

It's hard to imagine bringing out a cigarette (or something that looks like one) without most people recoiling. I almost never see anyone smoke where I live.

When I happen to be in New York, I see a lot of kids (dumbbells who should know better) smoking. College students, no less.

Use chocolate cigarettes. They fit (at least the ones I bought), making the three pieces is easy and you can hand them to children (or adults) at the end. Bonne appétit :D

You would never dare give a child chocolate cigarettes in the United States. The kid's parents would yell at you.

I see what you mean Richard. I just found out the European Union forbids to sell chocolate cigarettes since 2013 :? They would encourage children to smoke. Debatable but OK, perhaps not the best idea to perform Zig Zag Cig afterall :)

There are plenty of sweet 'cables' that are the right size too

It happens I have a few left from Xmas and yes, they work/fit! Quite fragile though (not the best idea to put a pin in the center one or it will fall into pieces), but certainly doable, and legal :D

I think a crayon or pencil is a good option because they are ordinary objects and can be examined. There's nothing to arouse suspicion.

However, you can also use candy cigarettes which are still made and sold here (among other places):

I don't understand why candy cigarettes would be okay but not chocolate cigarettes. Are they not both cigarettes? Does one suggest smoking more than the other?

Chocolate cigarettes come in a paper wrapper and look like a cigarette. Candy cigarettes have no wrapper: they're just a stick of sugar candy.

yep

Always difficult to play with cigarettes these days...
on some occasions, I was using drinking straws, and it works fine... also, I did one like a "mister Potato, just cutting a potato, to make inside a "Star French frie" and it was very funny... Ali bongo used to do a wonderful trick with a piece of "playdo" rolling a kind of sausage, and it was self cutting in his hands... you can use such a shape for the cigarette box...
