Re: Bicycle Scarabs from Crooked Kings - now LIVE on Kicksta

Hi Mike, Of course I've seen "Jackson's high-end wooden boxes". I think they're great! That's why we decided to use the same manufacturer, but we've been waiting to have a project that they would fit for, and Scarabs seemed to fit that ticket. I see no issues with using the same style box ...

Re: Bicycle Scarabs from Crooked Kings - now LIVE on Kicksta

You're mostly correct. I do all of the design work for the projects. However, we have folks on staff that will work on updates, shipping, messages, etc... in this case, I designed the elements for the box, but on a flat design, and sent them over to be put in an update graphic, which is when the iss...

All, I'm terribly sorry and embarrassed that this happened. I don't have an excuse for this and we take full responsibility for this making it through our vetting process.

sms69x, I'm sorry you feel burned about the viking king deck. That's actually one of my favorite tuck box designs. You didn't really give specifics as to what you were expecting, other than that you were "burned by it", so I'm at a loss here. As for you not having received Feudal and Full ...

Victor- we're not launching this until Feudal is complete (which is almost done). Our business model is to try to have one in production, and one on KS. Full Moon will go into production this week, and once Feudal is done, we're launching Jaws.

Re: ***Bicycle Full Moon Werewolf Deck - LIVE!!!

So, your back bleeds black out and so do your Fronts. They bleed black out on the top left of the card. I like the way you anticipated the bleed by making the the Hearts and Diamonds bleed black on the top. It's all black. You should have some interesting black bleeds on your top and bottom of deck...

How's that a thing? If something is limited, it's limited. It can be "artificially limited", because then it's not limited at all. Then it's standard. :lol:

Yeah I was thinking that as well. It's definitely a clever idea whoever brought it up. But we're talking about less than an 1/8 of an inch on each end to play with so accuracy is imperative. A template would definitely help but I don't trust drywall anchors so I tend to use toggle bolts so there's ...

You hit it on the head. Mold creation, engineering, and tooling are by far the most expensive part of doing something like that. It would actually be an entire new KS project. lol!

So, I knew this would come up, so let's go ahead and address it quickly. In Version 1.0, it cost $59 to display 10 decks. In Version 2.0, is costs $6...
