Kings Wild Equinox and Solstice decks inquiry

[mtsedwards72]

Hullo, collective! Another request for clarification and advice, please.

TL;DR - Did the Equinox I deck ever come in a standard edition?

As a fledgling Wiccan, I'd love to own a set of decks that reflect my beliefs. I looked at Jocu's Wheel of the Year series but - although stunning, affordable, and available - they don't quite hit the mark. I discovered Kings Wild's Solstice/Equinox series and am vibing more with that, but it seems that the price for these on the secondary markets are a bit steep. I did get a bead on 3 of them (Summer Solstice, Winter Solstice, Equinox II) with matching plain, standard tucks but the only Equinox I versions I can find are the 2nd edition ones with the fancy tuck. Did KW ever make Equinox I in a standard tuck that matches the others, or should I stop being particular and scoop up that red/gold embossed one?

Also, as a hail mary addendum - does anyone have the entire matching set they'd love to give up to a new home?

TIA for any help/advice.

If you check out the Master Deck List, there is an Equinox I printed by MPC in 2018.

I believe it to be this one here, printed by MPC: https://portfolio52.com/deck/6571/view

Not to be confused with Equinox I 2019: https://portfolio52.com/deck/8407/view

Many thanks! Are they just reprints? So the faces and backs are the same?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this to be the case.

The only ones to my knowledge you don’t see there is the 2018 Display deck with blank tuck case, and below par LTD and Standard Winter Solstice decks. I could have added them as well but I believes it looks better like this!

The original Equinox is one of my very favorite decks by dint of being the very first Shorts deck

Yes, Equinox started off the Kings Wild shorts deck and was just amazing. I think I have a few boxes of I think a gilded error version for something crazy like $2 each. If you want a carpy gilded error version, PM me and I will se if I can find one to send you. I forget all the different versions that have come and gone over the years, but it has been a bunch. It was a great series for sure. For the record, love Jocu's stuff as well.
