One way to resolve it is to have a very thin white border around each card. It would be a major change to the whole artwork. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Ran a survey with the backers, but there are very few folks who want a refund for the uncut sheet, and I've already processed the refunds. In case, the issue gets resolved, they will get a chance to add an uncut sheet again.

Thanks sunish. If I understand you correctly, whatever you do for the uncut sheet may affect the cards?
I would prioritise the actual playing cards over the uncut sheet, so option 1 is out for me unless it affects only the uncut sheet (ie the actual cards will proceed as originally planned, with the uncut sheet printed as a second run).
Option 2 is a possible idea, but I wonder if the white borders can be a bit wider to minimise the problem further.

+1 to this. In most cases I vote for borderless over borders, so option 2 is definitely preferred over 1.
I don't really see any upsides to option 1 at all, but maybe I'm missing something.

I may be misunderstanding the options but please no borders on the playing cards.
Yes, borderless -99%
The subtle difference is that the art is complete on each card while the white space on the border and between the cards leads to complete removal of the issue that happened in first instance. In the second option, you will still see some issue outside the edges of the cards (and won't affect the cards).
I am still prioritizing playing cards and highly liely, they will be borderless.

Both options ruin the uncut sheet effect imho and the first one also the playing cards. I wouldn't choose either.
Like I wrote in the survey comment, go for the art print route or just print the uncuts with the mistakes
You spoke what I've been feeling. It ruins the uncut sheet effect but sometimes you have to generate and compare options side by side. Let's see.
Finally, the decks reached GW's facility and with that, everything is there now to start fulfillment. Somehow, they counted 200+ more decks than were sent, and when I got this rechecked on both Legends and GW's side, I found it to be an error in counting at GW's end. Phew...
It is a long weekend here, and looking forwards to the 4 days break now. I should be able to get the shipping started once I compile the address survey details at my end, will try finishing it next week.
Seems like GW has started fulfillment. The tracking notifications via email are sent by them some time later after commencing shipping. This might mean that a few of you in US could recieve their rewards way before the email tracking notofication arrives in your mailbox. You might want to put a note here in case you have got your package. Thanks.
Bosch has arrived! Gamblers ship notifications remain weird. Sometimes I get the email about 30 minutes before they are already in my mailbox. Other times (like this one), I got it about a week early.
In any case...the deck came out exactly as hoped! The precision of alignment for the images are on point. And the artwork is perfectly bizarre. Thanks for a fantastic deck!

Are these/will these be available for purchase?
Still wrapping up fulfillment...most non US backers are yet to receive the decks and so, I will wait for 10-15 days or so, and then will open it to the public through my site. Hope that helps.
I just got mine, my ghast has never been so flabbered
These are absolutely incredible. Spent ages going through them looking at all the little details. Put them away and had to get them out to look again.
This might just be my deck of the year so far.

Got the decks as well and they are incredible! However the un-cut sheet tracking link has been dormant for about 2 weeks. Anyone else receive theirs?
Uncuts were received first by most and then came the decks. I can see yours hasn't shown any progression for about 2 weeks. I've notified USPS about it, let's see.
Glad to hear that you all are loving the decks. Thank you for the feedback

I got it and it is glorious!!! Thank you for following up!
Wanted to post a quick note here that early June, I received my uncut art print, and it is truly amazing. A stunning work of art. Sunish, you did great work with this project, and I'm always happy when I back your projects and add your cards (and extras) to my collection!

Thanks @Rousselle. Just finished sending the details of last few backers who submitted their address details in the last few weeks to GW. Should be sent next week.
