Wonder Playing Cards - LIVE on KS

[crhage]

Thank you for offering up the render, I think you keyed in on it's hard to see in the minds eye. I still have trouble envisioning "hologild" even with the render. Just something that's hard to picture without seeing it I think. Seen lots of other gilds, not this though. Interesting, I may have to pick one up just to get me a looksee all up close with me own paws.

Tossing it out there, anyone know of a deck with hologilding? I'm the curious sort now. Closest thing I can come up with in me own collection is that bike deck CPC tossed out with the glitter shine whatsit (prism maybe?) gild stuff on and that ain't holo.

I believe Jackson Robinson did a hologilded 20/20 deck.

Well I'm most likely out on this campaign. The decks are going to be close to $20 with shipping factored in. If that included the holo tuck (without the gilded cards) I'd be in. But I don't want a gilded deck, especially a $40 one. I still think these are nice, just not for me at this price point.

TWI Gold Monoliths are holo gilded. Legal Tender will have a holo gilded release this Saturday as well and if I'm not mistaken, wasn't there a Bicycle deck that is holo gilded? I think it was the Unicorn deck.

gemini decks recently release holo gilded decks. the spud decks did it a while back. the 2020 january kwp decks were holo gilded as well

I’ll share the campaign this weekend so you can see all the tiers. The prices are comparable to other custom projects with high end custom tucks, so maybe you’ll find a tier that suits you.

Here’s the campaign preview link for you guys to check out.

If you like what you see, I’d love to hear from you and have your support when the campaign goes live!

Looks great!
Question: Aside from the numbered seal, is the only difference between the standard and limited tuck white foil vs. silver foil?

Great question!

There are three tucks:
1. Regular tuck with white and blue foil and no seal
2. Limited tuck with silver and blue foil with numbered seal. This one has a silver gilded deck inside. This one is only available in the Collectors Box set and there will only be 250 made.
3. Holographic Limited tuck with holographic gilded deck. This one also has a numbered seal. I expect this one to be limited to less than 200 made and might be less than 150 total. We’ll know when the campaign ends.

TL:DR I've condensed the novel into three lines.

This campaign has (the nuts and butter regular non-gilded) decks that are expen$ive. I don't think shipping is included domestic (certainly not international) and combined with Art of Play shipping decks are going to be even more expen$ive. There's loads of competition out there so I'll wish the campaign well and step aside.

Thanks for taking a look anyway. Yes, I’m charging actual shipping rates and coincidentally AOP has updated their shipping and it’s just about exactly the same as the competition. I offered free shipping on the last campaign for certain tiers and I can’t tell you how many shipments actually cost more in shipping than the pledge amounts. There were several. I do hope my international friends will give this a look even though shipping internationally is quite expensive.

[crhage]

If you haven’t taken a look at the page lately, go take a look. I’ve added another Early Bird Tier and increased the early birds available at the $35 tier. I also noticed an error on the collector box price. It should be $40.

Still making some updates, so let me know if you see anything or have questions.

Thanks for the interest and input so far. Much appreciated!

[crhage]

Ok, guys go take a look. The early birds are out there. Also included are a few tiers with free US Shipping.

Things are shaping up to be a nice launch! See you there.

[crhage]

Here are the stickers for the upcoming campaign. The holographic ones will be sweet!

Also, did a mock-up of a big W alternative sticker. Which one do you like better?

[Fes]

Hi Chris, I think you should go with your gut on your sticker. It's your brand, what do you think pushes it better and which direction to you want it pushed in? The big W reminds me of Wonka and it makes me want to see the second deck. The Spade sticker has a little section that strikes me as, grr, in the design but it's a more playing card-esque.


I prefer a nice smooth line there but that's just me. Other eyes probably won't care so much, I just think it's a bit off balance there. That's more of a critique and not much of a I like this one over that one, I know. It's a sticker though and I feel like that's more personal to your brand since they tend to get stuck places. Like having a little mini billboard smacked to the whatevers of the world in various locations.

[crhage]

Thanks for the input here guys. We're going live tomorrow August 15th at noon. See you on Kickstarter!

Also, USPCC already has the artwork so we're in the queue.

[Fes]

And it's live. Best of luck! I'm sure this campaign will do very well. It's loaded from tip to top with Wonder. It can't help but bring the smiles out of folks and that usually means wallets come out too.

($hipping is very nice by the way)

[shkorc]

I like the back design and tuck, but standard courts and not so nice shipping to EU make it a pass for me.

KS search is broken again, here's a link to the campaign. Wonder Playing Cards. Beautiful playing cards for everyday gameplay. Printed by The United States Playing Card Company.
Hope KS gets it's act together this has been happening more and more lately.

[brownsl]

I like the tuck and back a lot but I find the courts too boring. I think the courts don't really match the tuck and backs artistically. Seems like missed potential to me.

Thank you! I''ve reached out to KS for support. Let's hope it gets fixed.

I'm a big fan of the classic court look personally. I didn't want to change those too much. I did add the metallic ink and some other slight changes, but I certainly understand we all have our own tastes in what we like.

Definitely appreciate you being involved in UC and I wish you success with your campaign! I look forward to your future projects.

Doing well so far. Passed the 51% mark at 7 hours.

833 more hours to go.

[crhage]

80% funded in just over 24 hours. Update posted on Kickstarter.

[Fes]

Nice strong start with great momentum. I like the excitement.

[crhage]

We are sooooo close to being funded. Only $700 away. Who wants to make a big pledge?

[crhage]

Well we've blown past the funding goal and our 1st stretch goal! We're headed towards our 2nd stretch goal at $20K which will be custom half-brick boxes.

Also, we just announced the availability of holographic gilded decks. Camp

aign has 24 days remaining!

[Fes]

Nice, congratulations Chris!
The campaign is rolling a long quite strong.

[crhage]

We’re about to our $20k stretch goal.

Also, the collectors boxes are more than halfway gone.
