Considering the cult following bacon has I feel like they could have done more with this. Did the Vanda ones ever get made? The ones that were bacon-scented

[Yashi]

I hate the back. It's painful to the eyes. I like the pips though but I'm not sure if they'll look that way once printed.

[Mike Ratledge]

Lordy... I'm speechless, to quote another user here. What is there to say?

Oink...oink...

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

I promised myself I would become nicer when commenting on decks, but this is hands down the worst one from CPC so far. I almost hope it doesn't get funded so they'll tighten up their criteria for decks they produce.

i like the piggies!!!
the back design however is not appealing.

[Becky C]

I like the pips and the piggies crack me up but that back is very hard to look at.

[Bikefanatic]

I hate bacon but I might get this deck. That's a strong might!

Call me a Swine...

But my wife and I both really like this deck!

Her adult daughter, whom died of cancer two years ago, collected everything that related to pigs, and I think that this deck makes her think of her daughter with a smile; and that's a very good thing.

For me, being the Swine that I am, I just found the cards fun and funny; and I could easily use them for any kind of card game or themed tricks for young and old alike.

So I am in for these; and I may also send some of these to my other adult "step-kids" in memory of their lost sister too.

Many Thanks for the heads-up, and for making my wife have a happy memory of her daughter!

Anybody old enough to remember a pig-rolling game called, "Makin' Bacon?"

[SBurk49]

My wife put me in on these.

"Aw those are so cute! You HAVE to get those."

So... I dont argue.

Well this failed miserably and has now been relaunched on another site with only a goal of $1500, they aren't digging themselves into a hole with this one are they? Now they aren't only copying other decks, like day of the dead and Excellence, but they are using Jacksons idea with Crowdtilt.

[volantangel]

why bother with $1500 ? they have the ability to print these decks on their own if they wanted, it hasnt stopped them before..

[Bikefanatic]

Kind of shocking this one didn't fund like the rest. The main reason I pledged was because of the re-done backs. Not that crazy about the deck but on the fence about still getting one.

[StanKindLee]

Let's face it - Bicycle branding with a delivery date just two months away... the printing of this deck was paid for a long time ago.

I really don't know why people keep insisting on "CrowdFunding" things like this that are clearly nothing but retail sales. Mike G knows what he's doing, but I wonder sometimes if he is listening to feedback from people like us. The new "Day of the Dead" deck is likely headed in the same direction, I suppose. It would be different if there were not already three pretty large campaigns just done in the past few months with the exact same theme, but - there have.

[Cbkimble]

Not for me. I refuse to pledge for another gamblers project till i receive the double black decks.

Seriously? This is not amateur night at Kickstarter. This is a commercial company. Using your logic nobody would have ever bought a single deck from Elite, CollectiblePlayingCards, etc, etc. They purposefully dovetail projects one on top of the other. You have nothing to worry about except the fact that you might miss the few nice early bird tiers where they put stuff for people like us that are professional collectors...

Well, Mike, here's a reason.

This came from the GW occults thread.
