Compared to the real photos, your renders of the cards were pretty spot on. Very cool!

Can't wait for these to arrive, I guess we can see the light at the end of the tunnel reflecting off of the cold foil. I really hope we have everything lined up so that we can actually get the UC 2020 Annual Deck in 2020 instead of 2021.

Montenzi - Dude, Batman lives near you? So cool. The cards too.

As for the 2020 UC Decks. I thought Jackson Robinson was going to do it this year. Maybe something Lord of the Rings related?

As you may know, I run the largest NZ's playing card shop :D Sometimes I put one or two of my cards into a parcel. One of my customers sent me a link to this unboxing video.

Look at her reaction to the card from the Purple No.7 deck and prepare yourself as fulfillment should be started anytime soon! :D

Like and subscribe! This young lady is a new super-star of playing card reviews! :mrgreen:

p.s. I'll send the Purple deck for a review! Let's see! :ugdance:

Good grief, that card looks fantastic, Alex. You could tell she was VERY interested in the mysterious purple card.

I can't comment on YouTube anymore. I hope someone has contacted her to let her know what that mysterious deck is. It is an expected reaction if anyone hasn't seen a fully colored foil Montenzi creation. Now, I want to see her reaction to the whole deck with the court cards in full foil. I think her socks will start smoking. :lol:

Yes, today I'll send the Purple deck for a review :twisted: Most likely she will be the first who review this deck on youtube :lol: I'll post a link later. I asked to post a video after 24th of May.

Ok. Some good news.

EU and UK fulfillment centers received their parcels. AU/USA parcels are in transit

UK fulfillment will be handled by JacksandJokers
EU fulfillment by 52wonders
AU fulfillment by BuyWorthy
USA fulfillment by GW

EU/UK: decks will be sent to backers by Friday.
US/Asia: TBA
AU: there is a delay due to the reduced capacity of air traffic between NZ and AU.
NZ: fulfillment completed last month :D

After UK/EU fulfillment, I'll have one brick of each in the UK and two bricks of each in the EU! It's a chance to pre-order and get decks delivered without customs charges.

Ok. I sent tracking numbers to all UK backers (except one as the number is incorrect). Decks should be sent this week. Big thanks to JacksandJokers! :ucstar:

EU: today is a public holiday in Germany. Decks should be dispatched on Friday/Monday.
USA: decks delivered to GW. I'll send a list of backers today. Fulfillment should be started anytime soon.

:ucstar: :ucstar: :ucstar: And there is a surprise for those who ordered more than four decks (>=4)! All such backers SHOULD receive (no guarantee though) one of each flat box. It's still subject to availability in the US and it's not available in Australia :D You can now assemble such boxes and post an image on Instagram/Facebook to prove that you are not a tucktist :lol: or use it as spare if your box was damaged. So please open any damaged boxes and DIY.

UPDATE: parcels within the EU with >=6 decks will be sent today (Friday) via UPS
UPDATE#2: the number of Green decks is correct after the final count, so I do not expect delays with EU fulfillment.

I hope that some UK backers will receive decks this week! Thank you so much! :ugthink:

p.s. Most likely next week due to COVID delays. But it's still a significant improvement vs. EU->UK and USA->UK.

They knew that you are backer #7, so your parcel was the first delivered in the UK. :D

I did not expect this, but 40% of UK parcels were delivered on Saturday! wow.

The No.7 Purple deck review by @WinkMagic :D BTW, she registered on UC!

The lighting is not ideal for the cold foiled deck, but she is not a pro! All good :D I had my reasons to send this deck to a young youtuber with 19 subscribers.

Everything is for real! The deck has got its rating of 8.5 out of 10! :ugdance:

Some cardistry inside! :twisted: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1__CIQIDPpc

Glad folks are getting them. Hopefully GW will get mine shipped out this week.

I liked the linked review. A nice solid “B”. So, good. :lol:

I think I will be a bit kinder.

Nice! :ucstar:

I have one deck shipped from GW on 28th of April, it's still in the US with the "Shipment Received, Package Acceptance Pending" status. I hope to receive it in a couple of months.
It was a good experience, so I will definitely use local fulfillment centers in my next projects. It was very convenient for me and for backers!

Yes, they should do it asap. As for the review - cold foiled decks are on the light side (daylight) ;) Electric lamps are not the best lighting source for them, though. But I recommend one cool test - use your monitor to light up a card under 45-60 degrees! It looks so crisp and unusual!

Received the decks yesterday in Slovenia.

Kudos to 52 Wonders for the fast dispatch and very securely packaged box and to Montenzi for using this EU friendly option.

The beautiful tuck boxes hint at the amazing cards inside, appreciate the extra boxes added.

Card backs are incredible, the pattern and foil plus the great handling of Cartamundi stock produce such beautiful fans. It's a cardistry friendly deck, for sure, but it will also make a poker night special as it's perfectly usable for gameplay.

Love the contrast between the background colors and foiled courts.

When you spread the down-facing deck a millimeter to one side, like you're preparing to make a fan, the foil makes it look like it has colorful gilded edges, just wow.

I think Montenzi needs to prepare for some awards on this year's DOTY :ugking:
