Had an arrival today. It is really incredible, and yes the decks do come out easily so I can switch out for other patriotic decks.

Hat would be a good fit, but I don't have that deck. I'm thinking maybe the crown and continental decks, along with Union & Rebels. Options are endless really.

Wow! Disney has a playing card deck. We should have known about this earlier. We are not using the force enough. We like the Dark Side with custom decks. Feel the power of the Dark Side. Commercial decks just suck ass...

Top: Christmas by Natalia Silva - to be given as Christmas presents, naturally.
Bottom: The Black Lions finally got here Saturday after 15 days in limbo, De'vo's Passion XCM - took advantage of JP's Playing Cards sale. Got here from the UK faster than Lions from Texas (is that a saying?).

I got these all in a week's time.

Also how come most times I upload an image, it's starts off sideways then I'll have to turn the actual pic around multiple times to get it straight on here? I know it comes up straight when you click the image but didn't feel like adjusting it this time.

The Olympia collection by Steve Minty. This is the first project that I went "all in" on, at least as far as my budget would allow. And I have to say that I'm very happy that I did. I know it's supposed to be all about the cards but I just love the coin, and dice, and t-shirt too. Even the cool sticker at the bottom of the picture. For me, it just increases the joy of the collecting experience.

Image

The picture doesn't do it justice but the printing on the t-shirt came just beautifully. It's a gorgeous orange color and the design is really striking. I guess I'll have to up my pledge on the Anubis/Osiris project to include the t-shirts. If they come out as well as these (and there is no reason why they shouldn't) they will be awesome. Great job, Steve.

I got something unexpected in today. No notice other than my standard note I get from USPS when a label is generated to my address through them. It came from Cincinnati if anyone sees something inbound from there.

I had a small order, just the one deck. Still waiting on my large Mana order however. :evil:

Hi all, I just started collecting this week!

I really like the karnival sets with the foil packs and seals.

I have an assassins foil deck coming soon too. Plus chasing some necronomicon action.

Look what arrived just in time for Lunar New Year on Monday the 8th. The three decks in clockwise order from top: Bicycle Gong Xi Fa Cai, Three Kindoms Lu Bu, Bicycle Zodiac. The large box is a Chinese tarot deck that is just beautiful. Many thanks to our own Shermjack for going to a lot of trouble to get those to me. Gong Xi Fa Cai everybody!
