Looks really cool, reminds me to the witch gazing into the crystal ball.

Eight T-numbered items this year, folks.

Nice ! What are the other 4 ? The 4 mentalism set or the party magic, Richard ?

I would assume the mentalism set. I think anything that gets exported gets a T-number. It's just interesting in this case since these items either did not originate with Tenyo or were previously released.

Anyway here's another video:

Nice find...thanks Elliot

There is a review on the water trick and magic square. Seems that Tenyo provided the white board (not paper) along with the marker for the magic square. This is really great !

I was fooled badly by this puzzle trick at the first until I realize it uses totally different technique comparing with the existed version on the market. Tenyo really made a great twist on this one....so clever !!!

I don't have any other versions of this puzzle so I would be curious to hear about how it differs from the original.

Here's another video:



I suspect this might be better with a spectator calling the shots

Whoa I have absolutely no idea how the magic maze works. Or any of the others for that matter.

I was a little concerned about this years Tenyo, but now it looks like there was no need to worry and Tenyo pulled out a very impressive season.

100% the magic maze is getting the JH treatment! It looks like a great effect but the paper doesn't half look fiddly. I'm more excited about this years crop than I was expecting to be , looking forward to more vids

None of these tricks have appeared in this form before. All have been updated by Tenyo with clever new methods or additions to the existing ideas.

I can't figure out the magic maze at all, you hve 15 possible outs!

Puzzle is very similar to the the "Winston Freeer Puzzle."

I can't figure out any of the tricks ... but it's still early, and I desperately need caffeïne ... .

Can't seem to find a video of the 4th trick yet but here's an another performance of the magic maze.
After watching both videos a number of times I think I see how this works...

Here's another video. This one included a mental T number.

It's odd to me that no video of this has been put out yet. I assumed this would be the best of this year.

It's the Koornwinder Car with only 1 wheel...

Completely different method.

This MAZE is absolutely a-MAZE-ing !

I believe there are combinations but looking at the demo, the spec can freely decide how to flip the card and how to rotate them in order to match the prediction . I have absolutely no idea how the logic works.

TENYO 2017 FOUR TRICKS

Oiginal English Instruction will be downloaded with the end of October)

Tenyo 2017　Hissyo Amidakuji　（Victory ladder lottery）
Magician shows a board with the letters from 1 to 5 written at left side, and A,B,C,D and E at right side. Magician asks spectator to choose a letter on the right half to put a coin clip on. Magician then asks spectator to place 4 red clips on 4 letters on the left half. The remaining letter gets a blue clip for magician. Magician then shows 4 cards with line patterns on each one. Spectator then mixes up the cads and places them face down on the board in any order. Spectator then turns each card over to reveal the line pattern. The line that starts where the blue clip is with end where the coin clip is located. Creator: So Sato

Tenyo 2017 Densetsuno Puzzle (Legendary Puzzle) World Greatest Magic
Magician shows a frame as well as a number of pieces that fit into the frame. Once all the pieces are in the frame, magician then brings out one more piece. Although it doesn't look like it can fit in the frame, the magician rearranges the pieces so that the extra piece can fit. Again, the magician brings out yet another piece and can somehow rearrange the pieces again to be able to fit this additional piece into the frame. Creator: Winston Freer (and new gimmicked idea: Kenichi Komiya)

Tenyo 2017 Psycho Gravity
Magician shows 4 aces which the spectator chooses one. Cards are then laid down on a small clear ramp. A cylinder is placed on the ramp. The cylinder then slowly rolls down the ramp until it stops on the selected card. This trick can be done with other objects besides cards. Creator:Daiki Tanaka　

Tenyo 2017 Mahono Mizukagami (Magic Water Mirror)
Magician shows a tray and has the spectator select a card. Water is then poured into the tray. Magically, an image of the selected card shows up slowly in the tray only to disappear moments later. You can also have a message show up instead. Creator:Higar

I was very curious about this one so I decided to make my own set of cards on pieces of paper.Not necessarily witj the same exact design. Just the same start and endpoints as the cards in the video. Once I did that I discovered something very interesting. Between that and the 2 videos I was able to get a good idea of how it works.

Thanks for all the videos and descriptions guys!

I am a wee bit less enthousiastic about some of the items ... some obvious questions come to mind ... .

Victory ladder lottery - does a magiciancs force of the red/blue chips take place? Does the magician turn the cards over, because he can turn side to side or front to back ... that could possibly give away a part of the secret for some spectators ... or can the specs choose how they are turned over?

The Puzzle trick is a good one, this one is my favourite for now.

Psycho Gravity - while this is original, I am a bit worried that it gets the same reactions as the Koornwinder Car ... . The method may be comletely different but the result on the spectator can be the same, no?

Magic Water Mirror - a nice 'gadget', but you'll probably need to force the card ... .

I'll buy them all anyway like every year, but the Puzzle Trick seems the most interesting to me, followed by the maze/lottery trick.

With the lottery trick the spectator has complete free choice over where to put the red/blue chips. The spectator chooses the order and orientation of the cards and he can turn them over too however he likes.

Seomagic has now put up their videos of the tricks.
