P52 Debut Deck 'Odd Fellows' by Stockholm 17

[Strag]

I was really HOPING that The Emperor Playing Cards made its ways as addons, rather than a new edition with edge printing…

PS: While I appreciate you do Free Shipping to Indonesia on Penguins webstore, but how in the world I can checkout if I don’t have the option to choose the country - as it is not there?

There was enough feedback from a small amount of vocal backers for stretch goals, so after much conversation we decided to offer an additional option.

This is the part that I don’t like - “demand” being part of the problem of too many decks, because some people are asking for it

How is it a problem to have it as a different deck vs "adding on" edge printing. I mean, they are both different decks at that point? How is it different from gilding? I really am puzzled at the negativitiy around it. Paying $17 for a deck plus $5 for edge printing vs $22 for a deck with edge printing is the same thing no? I'm beyond confused.

At least for me, I'm in the early bird which already has a standard deck. I want the edge printed deck. If I could pay $5 to upgrade it to edge printing, then I would. But I wouldn't pay $21 for a 2nd near identical deck. Part of the reason is the good early bird pricing people got. If they want a tier with 1 edge printed, 1 gilded and 1 mini for example, they lose early bird pricing.

How much does the early bird save someone? It varies quite a bit from campaign to campaign. Some campaigns it is only $1, $2, or $3 which I never really care that much about as it is pretty insignificant. At least compared to my overall spending. Other times it is $10 or so depending on the reward level.

For this campaign, it's $3 for the EB - Trio, or $6 for the EB - Trio x2.

[bdawg923]

Right $3 for the eb. The edges are $4 more than the standard. So switching means paying $7 extra I think

Edit. Wait I might be wrong. Gilded = 27. Edge printed = 21. mini = 13. That's 61. The edges are $4 more than the standard. If it's an addon then eb + edge print = 52+4 =56. So $5 more by dropping out of the eb. Not a big deal, but I'm fine with the standard personally.

Need a math wizz to figure this out for me pls. How'd I get $7

[Evilgamer]

There is a inconsistency in pricing, except the UV deck, all the decks are $1 more as a pledge than they are as an add-on, so snowflake is $26 vs $27.
This means the UV deck is the cheapest to buy-in to make your own bundle.

There is no way to get it on EB without just buying the edge printed

EB trio $52

UV $21+ add-on snowflake $26 +addon Herr INGO $12 = $59

$7 more than you started with.

or $8 if you choose the snowflake as the base pledge

[bdawg923]

Gotcha thanks. I missed the price discrepancy

[Bikefanatic]

I think I would back if there was a foiled front and back with no gilding version. Don't like gilded decks, the handling, the flaking off, the tacky look of shiny gold paint all turn me off and I already have a couple of decks in the range so I feel my interest in the Odd Fellows is no longer piqued.I'll wait for Lorenzo's next project.

I'm also with you on that I don't care for gilding, I like foiled fronts and backs. I think the white tuck deck that's what we get anyway including the gilding which is good enough for me. I'm not dropping my early bird Trio pledge.

Lorenzo posted the Odd Fellows family in all their glory:

Dr. Crow will always be missing in my house
Unless someone super generous to call him to come into my house haha

I sold mine; not sure what I was thinking.

On the latest Kickstarter update, these were supposed to be in fulfillment (along with EOTO2) to be shipped. I have not got a tracking number yet. I guess these are the last of the Odd Fellows crew. I might get a carat case to hold all 12 of them.

[Evilgamer]

I haven't seen anything from either, not guaranteed that we will get a notice.

Do we know that for sure? I just don't remember Lorenzo saying that.

[laitostarr777]

I just hope there’s no more of its member that Patreon exclusive ;3;

Lorenzo does a great job of trying to give value to his Patreon but gone are the days of low print runs.

You're gonna need more space homie

Thanks, I'm fine with him making more! I like to display mine with all of the faces showing, the back of the tucks. Here's an example of the first seven before I got all the recent decks.

[KGthePrince]

The decks came in today and they are great. The edge printing on Underwater vibes edition is a deep, beautiful blue. And the cold foil on the Golden Snowflake edition really stands out. I think Lorenzo should offer classes on how to use cold foil in a deck. It's one of the best in Odd Fellow series imo.

I completely agree, mine came today, and this is basically when I mean when I say that it takes someone of Lorenzo's talent to prove out whether a printer can produce a top tier deck.

Anyone else still waiting for the Penguin version of these? Tracking hasn't updated since a week before Xmas. Not too worried, yet, just trying to gauge whether it's worth an email to support.

I had the same issue. I emailed them and they quickly resent it and the new one is tracking along just fine.

Sneak peek! 2 Odd Fellows characters are in the making: Sister Merry Gorda and Father Firkin (Patrons know what is this about). I am making mug-shots colored with watercolors on handmade cotton paper. When ready with everything, I will run a Kickstarter campaign as the production is quite costly. You can follow the work in progress on Patreon and find out how the project is evolving (High tiers will be closed around the end of the month).
Gosh, last time I used watercolors was in the previous millenium LoL Stay tuned!

Don't forget to sign up for Lorenzo's Patreon as there is another Odd Fellow that won't be part of the Kickstarter.
