The main gimmick prop for this lovely close-up effect is a version of a classic item from UF Grant -- the clear top card box. Tenyo has take UF Grant\'s idea, and made a custom version of it, with an extra feature (that increases the deceptiveness) and applied it to a theme of butterfly collecting. And the butterfly collecting context actually makes the special gimmicked box look like something that exists in the world outside of magic: a butterfly display case. (I know it is small compared to real butterfly display cases, but it flies for lay audiences... (sorry for the unintentional pun!)

A plastic butterfly display case is shown. Through the clear lid, it is seen to be completely empty -- just an empty golden pin stuck in the bottom of the case. The empty sealed case is covered with a square black cover. Then the spectator choose a butterfly color from a set of four butterfly color cards. Say she chooses blue. The black cover is lifted and now there is a blue (stiff cellophane) butterfly impaled on the golden pin inside the sealed box.

It is very magical and baffling. Tenyo supplies an extra cellophane butterfly in Yellow, if you prefer that color.

The change box is ideal for the butterfly theme, but can be used for other effects. Tenyo instructions suggest a neat idea with a paper voodoo doll. Spectator chooses where a voodoo doll should be pierced with the pin, and when the sealed case is uncovered, now there is a paper voodoo doll on the pin, impaled exactly where the spectator chose. Or you can use the box to cause a spirit message to be written on a small paper billet. You\'ll have fun playing with this one, but don\'t forget about the Butterfly effect (unintentional pun #2), because it is a good one.

This one sells for about $30 in most places I found it, but did see it for $24 at one seller. I\'ll do a bit better than that price because I\'m in a good mood.
