Rise and Shine by Jocu x Octofly

[Timmargh]

So, I've just read back thru this thread and I have zero recollection of making any posts before yesterday.

*feels old in an old way*

Blimey, we're in very similar situations.

Also, you should've italicised "very."

I have been in a general malaise, a funk one might say, when it comes to buying decks recently. A lot of decks I am passing on. My buying has decreased quite a bit. Seems fewer and fewer decks really get the collecting juices going. These two decks do that and I am looking forward to them!

[Timmargh]

My rule of buying only one deck from a set is negated if the artwork between decks is different and not simply a recolour.

I'm sorry, wallet, old friend, but you're going to get another hammering.

[Bradius]

I am not a big fan of black card stock. However....I will make an exception here. Yeah, this is really nice stuff. Count me in as well.

[mtsedwards72]

Okay, I'm in too, zombies notwithstanding. Jocu, man. Gotta catch 'em all...

[Honeybee]

I too am not a fan of black stock but they look good - is it a grey/charcoal ?

[Harvonsgard]

I’d say so. Looks like charcoal.

[GandalfPC]

slate gray or charcoal blue

We have our preview link live Launch date TBC soon but pretty imminent

Back design in for Dusk Till Dawn

[Harvonsgard]

Not enough dinos on the back for me personally but still both editions have become no brainers to me and will be definitely decks that I'm excited to purchase - a rare feeling I currently have when when it comes to cards.

[Jocu]

We have a launch date!

It's this Tuesday 28th May at 19:00pm CET // 13:00pm Eastern // 10:00am Pacific

There is an 'all-in' tier for all four campaign decks (Rise and Shine, Dusk Till Dawn and their respective gilded KS-exclusives) in a custom box with all the goodies at a great price. So be sure to catch the early birds.

[brownsl]

Looking forward to these!

[shermjack]

Fun tucks! Look forward to the launch!

[Timmargh]

Fun tucks! Look forward to the launch!

I had to read that twice …

[Harvonsgard]

Not that this will change my purchase descision in any way - cards are just too - but I tend to dislike borderless or wraparound design tucks. These are no exception. Of course it makes sense for a graffiti artist to treat the tuck like a mural but I would have loved for it to be more like a crossover between graffiti and classic tuck box design.

See you there folks

Yet another "if you want the gilded deck you have to buy something else first" campaign.

If there is anything I want to see ended its that tendency.

Actually I'm gonna do it more!

There are no gilded decks without the main project. The bundle has all four decks with a big discount - the prices are certainly fair. Alternatively 1 standard can have a gilded one added, so we're not asking much.

Backers coming in just to grab a gilded deck with the hope that it goes up in value one day is not really who this campaign is aimed at.

And your error is assuming that everyone who wants a gilded deck is a reseller. Im going to open the decks as soon as they come in and put them in a storage box never to be sold.

If I was reselling then adding $16 to buy a deck I don't have a use for so I could pickup a bunch of the decks I want to resell would be cost of business.

Eh, alright it is what it is.

This is a happy day we're not looking for critiques on things like this to be honest. If it's not for you, I get it. Don't worry about it.

Gilded decks are KS-Exclusive and we're just doing them as an extra thing for those who support the campaign. We want to get these decks made - the gilding is a small part of it and it wasn't even mentioned during the pre-campaign so if that's all people want I'm not sure what to say, it's just an extra and the cost involved means it's available only as an add-on, or at a big discount with the bundle rewards.

It's not locked behind a stretch goal or an expensive tier. You can literally get it with the base €14 tier.

Anyway, thanks for everyone whose supported so far

[Timmargh]

I was only going to pledge for one, but they're too cute to choose between.

out of curiosity, which was your first choice?

[brownsl]

I went with the Mixed Megabrick. I think the gilded decks look very nice also.

Rise & Shine. I'm not a huge fan of horror/zombie type media or items, but I do like the contrast of the bright colours on the dark paper.
