Stickman Bob is undoubtedly one of the most jaw-dropping, theatrical, and downright entertaining ways to locate a playing card... EVER!
"Such brilliant, mad, obsessive thinking that has created spectacular effects. You are a true one off. Keep up the brilliant work!"
- Andy Nyman
"Kieron Johnson is a genius."
- Fay Presto
"A polar vortex has hit the magic world."
- Wayne Dobson
"Without doubt my favorite routine using flash paper, a brilliant idea from the brilliant mind of one of my favorite performers/creators. A charming trick that leaves the spectator with an impossibly magical souvenir that they can keep forever."
- Jamie Raven
"Since seeing Kieron's original Bob routine, I've been hooked on this plot. The addition of the cannon, more fire and now the animated character bursting through the deck makes this a complete, wild and fun routine. I use it as a table piece at weddings and corporate functions, and the reactions are electric. It's an addictive story and will stay with me."
- Steve Rowe
Stickman Bob is not your average stickman; he’s here to find your spectator's signed card in a way that will leave them utterly gobsmacked.
A card is chosen, signed, and placed back into the deck. Then, enter Bob, your magician stickman mate, and let the antics commence!
Bob isn't just a stickman; he's also a stuntman who will risk it all to locate their card.
A cannon makes its grand entrance and yes—Daredevil Bob is going to be launched from it!
The countdown begins, and Bob is sent flying from the cannon into the deck, which promptly explodes into flames.
As the flames die down, Bob emerges, having burnt his way through the box and deck, leaving behind his smoky silhouette on the back of the signed card.
Stickman Bob is perfect for all kinds of performances—street, close-up, parlor, or even stage (let’s not forget the classic “look, mum, no hands!”).
It’s a doddle to perform, has stunning visuals, creates emotional connections, and is an effect your audience will remember—especially when they walk away with their signed, burnt Bob card!
You’ll receive the Stickman Bob Deck complete with laser cut-out burnt cards, smoking template, and the fantastic NEW STYLE Toy Cannon for Bob to launch himself from.
Sheets of flash paper aren’t included because of pesky international shipping regulations, but we do provide a flash tutorial that covers everything you need to know.
For those who’d rather not play with fire (or are still learning the ropes), we’ve included a non-flash version with an audio countdown in a delightful mix of English, German, French, Spanish, Japanese, Dutch, and Italian.
Stickman Bob is Kieron's nod to the brilliant works of Bob Farmer, Andrew McCarthy, and David Ben. Oh, and the stickman design was inspired by Dan Harlan (because why not?).
TV rights not included.
