Unfortunately... this is real. Not a KS.
I guess this cute bear is really famous in Japan.

I thought the USPCC wasn't allowing people to make custom rider backs anymore.

I don't think a simple color change is considered "custom"; I believe that was more about alterations to the design.

Why unfortunately? I do like this deck and it follows in the footsteps of the BAPE, Tokidoki, Johnny Cupcakes, & Bearbrick Bicycle Playing Cards... They could be amongst worse company, don't you think?

I really like the tuck colors. I wonder if the courts were mirrored, would they look odd? Puts me in mind of the Come To Chew Deck.

It's got my interest. Do we know what sellers will have it yet? I.E. will this be an Asian market only type thing, Bicycle direct, or will our local vendors be carrying them?

I know someone that has Rilakkuma everything, bag, pens, pencils, phone case, umbrella, bed covers, posters, slippers. It was pretty common around Tokyo and Sendai when I went there as well. Picked up some decks there looking forward to uploading pics this week.

I preordered these myself on amiami.com and they were only about $6.65 Canadian although shipping is yet to be estimated.
