Looks like a promo item of sorts for MailChimp the email marketing company. Theory11 is apparently involved along with a marketing company. I like monkeys, I would be in for one if they end up being available.

"Very T11" isn't really a good thing in my book. I don't mean to complain or critique, I just feel like the boxes are always so over the top with colors and metallic inks and embellishments that opening the deck and seeing it being >%50 white is then kind of a let-down. Thin borders helps though!

File this in rumor mill, but not good news for those that want these. Myself included. Hopefully it's incorrect or somebody here will get an answer and we'll see some made available to the public. I've check quite a few sources and nobody is talking if these will be made available to public so that's a bad sign too.

They look to be mostly an internal promotional item though so for now, there’s no way to get your hands on one unless you know somebody.

I doubt that those will neve be for sale. Just be patient and dont jump the gun when those cards appear on ebay for XYZ amount of money.
Those cards doesnt look like a rushed job - in fact those cards look very good designed.
IMHO i think they were made to make profit.

Yeah, I agree with cosmicsecret. Also emphasis on not jumping the gun on eBay. Some examples include:

- Gold Private Reserve that sold on eBay for $349; Dan and Dave introduced a Variety Box for $150 with the Gold Private Reserve included as one of the 12 decks, only a few days later

- Sherlock Holmes LE Bakerstreet deck that is currently being listed on eBay for $189.99; Jackson will be releasing a few in late April for $50 (photos and prices are already shown on the King's Wild website, but are currently marked as sold out)

I bet it's the same guy who had the unbranded Black Reserve Note for almost 3 months before they were shipped. $200 fixed price as I recall. *smh*

That reminds me of the Ultimate Deck. Gilded versions were made, and a pair of them were given as holiday presents to employees of Stranger & Stranger, including a really nice box. I don't think the gilded versions were ever meant for sale, but people inquired about it so they decided to sell the set for $200 each.

However, the Dan and Dave versions that are not gilded were always meant for sale, as far as I know.

I asked how to get a deck and got this response:

Hi Andrea – these were quite limited, so unfortunately we don't have any available at this time. The best bet will be to sign up for our Marketing & Promotions mailing list so you'll be one of the first to know the next time we have any MailChimp swag to give away!
