I wasn't a big fan of the standard court cards, but the more I looked at them, the more I liked this deck. I have LUXX PALME, GREILL, and COBRA V2. I like the slightly narrower index of the COBRA because it looks nicer when fanned or spread. I have a hard time buying a deck with a classy standard co...

I purchased the box set. I thought the special edition with foil backing was not made by USPCC, but the green of the four basic colors was also not made by USPCC and was the same paper as the special edition. The thickness is almost the same but the weight of 52 pieces is 92~93g, which is about 8,9%...

Another really unimportant piece of information is that in Japan, people who fail the university entrance exam and study without belonging to a high school, university, or company are also called “ronin”.
My wife was once a ronin

I have lived in Japanese culture for about half a century, but I do not have any historical expertise, just an opinion as an average Japanese person. I like the color of the tuck case. I feel a bit of the dull hue of the mineral pigments used in Japanese painting. I also like the simple Japanese cal...

IMG_20240629_114407.jpg Certainly not as rendered, the back was particularly disappointing, but the face was not that far off from my imagination. The foil is not a mirror-like reflection due to the embossing, but there is a decent foil sheen. Unlike the thin paper (280gsm Black Core?) that is ofte...

I have to buy 4 decks to get the standard lunch box and 8 decks to get the limited edition lunch box (& gilded deck).
I wish they sold them in the same set as the kickstarter...

I'm not usually interested in cases to hold decks, but I wanted this lunch box(oh, and there was such a thing as canned sardines). I am sad to think that I may not be able to get it.

I was looking forward to getting the new Meadowlark decks. Is shipping only in the US and Canada? Is there any way to get them, I am a sad space cow.
Edit: Haha, several people wrote the same thing.

On Avalon's comments page, Tim mentioned he used MPC. I wonder why the size is a bit larger than other MPC products I have? (the corner radius is also a little different).

I received mine and as kevork said the fan works perfectly and feels great when bent. The traditional cut makes the faro shuffle easy. The texture feels like MPC's M31 Beta Finish and the thickness is about equal, but it is about 0.5mm larger in length and width than the MPC(Bicycle). Since the pric...

The addition of the Claw has made me consider changing from The Windwatcher (LTD) tier to The Chancellor tier (or Oracle). I love Lorenzo's design and as a collector, I am inclined to want The Windwatcher, but the face design is the same as the others and it is far beyond what I normally spend on a ...

Apex Edition is now available at Murphy's Magic.

It's already sold in various online stores.
It's a shame I won't be able to see her future work, I'm sure she'll be back.

I am a cow person and I am angry that he did not adopt a space cow for joker.

I received. I had no expectations for the handling, but wow, it is made by WJPCC. A pleasant surprise! I looked back on this thread and saw that the last one was also made by WJPCC, so I guess I should have expected that? I expected it to be printed by a mystery printer since it was marked made in K...

Haha, I wanted to write something silly because I felt like I was in a bleak atmosphere.
How could anyone mistake Lotrek for Lorenzo?

Lotrek and Lorenzo and Giovanni are great and can be mistaken for each other. (I don't know how they feel about it.)
But I don't know why, but no one mistakes Jackson Robinson.

I was wondering if everyone who posted here was able to buy one?
I have been interested in the Kin-dza-dza deck since I saw it on Instagram. I'm glad I was able to get it and look forward to receiving it.

I could have bought one of each! It's 4am, I fell asleep a while ago and it was close.

Sorry for the confusing, it's a manufacturer of TURIP playing cards.

This deck was now available for delivery outside the US and Canada. Yay! I'm in. By the way, on the KS page for Tulip. "Printed in Taiwan, using German paper and the latest "Thin Crushed" process, thinner and more durable." It says. Is there a notation anywhere that it's made by ...

Okay, I'll try not to get my hopes too high. But it will be great deck even if it is 10% of the quality compared to the rendering.

Confession.
I used to love looking at the recently add list while I was at work and thinking, "hsbc bought clearance sale playing cards at Socal again." I can't stand not seeing it for two weeks.
I hope it come back.

Thanks again for your detailed reviews.

I wondered for a while if there was some special meaning that I could not read due to my poor English skills. Eventually it was made by LPCC, am I right?

Madame Laveau has arrived. The color of the court cards and the foil accents are much nicer than the picture shows. I bought 2 decks and now I want another one.
Yes, I have joined the Patreon, which I couldn't decide on until the last minute.

I have received the email. I like cartamundi paper quality, WJPC is not bad, but I was willing to pay almost $100 for 2 decks of playing cards +α, partly because it was B9 Slimline paper, which is my most favorite stock. Personally, I'd rather wait, but not knowing when it will happen can be a burde...

This has been on my mind as well. I thought I could review the v2 I purchased because it was on sale at a discount in the SoCal and I received it just today, but the v2 is the EPCC version.... I guess the unmarked was the new Chinese version, I should have checked before buying. (I bought it thinkin...

Version 2.0 in now live!

I don't know how to link to kickstarter.Is it appropriate to discuss ver 2 in this thread as well?
Hope this project gets funded.

This is probably my favorite Ace from the jocu deck so far. I want a full deck to match the design of this Ace.
All the cards are really nice. I know this is totally out of the Frankendeck concept, but I wish they would make a regular deck...

Often cards with customized pips are difficult to determine what suit they are when viewed alone, but this one is identifiable on its own despite being highly decorated. I love this one.

so 1 in every 6000 decks are going to be gilded? (thats a joke). I hope it isn't a joke lol. That's a thematically appropriate idea. Maybe not gilded, that would probably just ensure a future inclusion in the "eBay cracksmokers" thread, but maybe a certificate for t11's store, or an item ...
