Been a while since I've seen that name, I was a backer of the original Seven Seas decks which I later sold when cleaning out my collection. This appears to just be more of the same so it's an easy pass for me.

I didn't get the seven seas as it was a little before my entry into this crazy hobby. I think I have a few of them though. Anyway, I enjoy Brain Vessel, so I am in. Hoist the sails. Just was watching again a group's show of circumnavigating Antarctica below the 60 degrees south for the first time ever in a sail boat.

They’re also doing the Colorized Sea Creature decks. If you never picked up the original, they’re worth a look for sure.

That's a good way to re-print the colored Sea Creatures deck...as an unbranded version or Brain Vessel branded instead of Bicycle.

Nice to see Brain Vessel doing a deck again. Always great quality decks. I'll have to pass as well. Despite being nautical themed and well executed still not making the cut for me.

As an owner of all his other decks, this deck would be superfluous to me so I'm out.

I think it's going to face a funding challenge. It should fund though and a lot of folks who missed out or didn't know about their pirate and fishes will now be able to snag some. :)

It's not a bad thing but the self branded tuck isn't as cool as it should be. It's a bit.. I don't know. I think it could be better, if they're going to do it really do it up. Want some self branded, cool, now get off the bike bar.

I am part of the group who missed their first nautical launch, so I am excited to jump in with this one. I think the artwork is superb and sincerely hope this one funds, though it didn't jump right out of the gate. Fingers crossed!

Their Bicycle Seven Seas deck is the only deck I have as an AIP bottle, I really wanted the squid & whale display thing but there were limited. This deck, I'll also pass since it looks the same as past decks.

I don't have any previous iterations, and I do like ocean/nautical themes. If this was unbranded, I wouldn't hesitate. A full-color, unbranded Seven Seas Master Collection would be a yes, please. If I do go in, it'll be for the Pirate & Sea Creature pair. Price seems modest, for a Kickstarter. The cards themselves are appealing.

I'm confused. Isn't this unbranded (ie, not Bicycle branded)?

The actual name of the deck is in smaller letters, underneath the company name. Compare against the decks shown here. Though in looking back at the unbranded-tuck Kickstarter, now, I prefer the way the whale pops out in front of the tuck's 'frame' in the current Kickstarter. Hmm.

I've decided to ditch. I was in for a pair because, why not be in for a pair? Then I took a good look at it and decided Naa. Here's the why for the Naa. These are just reprints and they're over priced in my opinion. The tucks won't be embossed, you're not going to get foil or any other bling. They'll do the cheapest thing they can do, custom seal. (it's a sticker) There won't be any metallic ink on the cards backs and those swords would look cool with it, so would the flintlocks. These are at most $8.00 USD decks but they want half again that for retucks. Naa, I'm a little tired of KS backers having to pay a premium for someone to make something they sell later for less. In this case, I'm real tired of it. What is this the third sea creatures print? I think so.

I love that they're using KS to get what they want over and over and over. (same deck) I'm just not willing to help them do it with this one. These should be self funded retucks in my opinion and if they can't self fund the bloody things then I don't think they should be made. No hate, just taking a realistic look at this thing. They've sailed these seas.

New product? I'm all for it, lets have a look and maybe I'll pay the KS premium for that one.

I did check their decks lately because I'm looking for an old deck and like Fes, just realised that the artwork is mostly recycled from their older series. Gave me a good chuckle.
Was never in, so I can't back out but surely would if I would have been in, haha.
