Yeah, seems a bit ridiculous that this isn't the type of stuff they would put on the Club 808 newsletter. It's perfect.

Anyway, I'd love to hear more about this deck.

I could not believe my eyes today as I received shipment of my LONG OVERDUE Type Deck from Chris Cavill.

Re: Amigos Playing Cards (KS)

After many delays, this set of 3 decks finally arrived. A little disappointed to be honest. The tuck box seems like it's of the lowest quality possible -- not like other EPCC decks I own. And there's something very odd about the way these cards feel. I don't have the technical expertise to describe ...

Re: Bicycle® CMYK Playing Cards (USPCC) now live on KS

I think this is off to a good start. I wonder however if the dots in place of traditional suit symbols makes the cards a little less useful. In my opinion playing cards should be instantly recognizable in terms of what card it is and somehow the dots makes that a bit harder.

Keep up the good work!

Re: Bicycle Forest and Minty Green Playing Cards

Saw these recently as well. I know these aren't anything special beyond some color changes, but I tend to like these "normal" Bicycle decks better than most that have been coming out branded as Bicycle lately.
