Evil Deck and Good Deck by Giovanni (TWI)

[Thirdway Industries]

Just a quick update on the Evil/Good Deck.
I decided with Expert Playing Cards to start printing only the Evil Deck. Unfortunatley it will be ready only in early 2015 (jan/feb). The Good Deck will be produced after the Evil. Stay tuned, I will keep this thread updated when I have more accurate informations.

[ecNate]

Was just going through my 'on order' list and saw this was still on it. Obviously it's dead and planned for Jan/Feb, but is that still on track? Any new news to report? Obviously focus now is on Delerium, but I'm antsy!

[Thirdway Industries]

Hi ecNate, no no Evil Deck is not dead

EPCC is a bit late on this, but they are coming. We are planning to relase it with Delirium, so we can use a single shipping from factory to fullfilment center (I hope this mean the both decks will be availabe a bit early).

The only thing I'm not sure at the moment is the Good Deck. I may do a kickstarter for it in the future, or maybe EPCC will produce it automatically if the Evil Deck sales will be good.

Thank you, I'm really happy you are waiting for it so bad as I am

I'm silent but I'm working hard on my decks...I have a big thing coming the next days/weeks

Cheers,

Giovanni

So Evil Deck is now available for pre-order (http://www.thirdway.it/wordpress/produc ... _category/), but what does that really mean? Is this being self funded if needed, what if only 100 people pre-order, are you personally covering the rest of the printing costs and resell those yourself later? $13 + $4 US shipping ($9 Intl) is hardly a sale compared to KS projects. Am I just paying more for the privilege of being first to order and there may be a KS project for it after as well if things don't go well here?


FYI - There's also a 2nd chance for Delerium (http://www.thirdway.it/wordpress/produc ... _category/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) and Good Deck prototypes (http://www.thirdway.it/wordpress/produc ... _category/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

Evil deck is already under printing at EPCC, Giovanni won a contest over at pcf that allowed his deck to be produced.

[Cbkimble]

Looks like Giovanni is having an evil deck brick special. Is anyone here interested in buying any if I grab a brick?

Evil Deck Sales



I'm going to remove the sales from the Evil Deck in the next days. If you are on the fence and want one at a special price, the time is come! Here is a link of the Evil Deck products on my store:

EDIT - why is this thread title still based on Card Launcher? Seemed silly to create a new thread since it's not really new anymore though.

[Thirdway Industries]

ecNate is faster than me in posting those updates
Thank you!

The production of Evil Deck and Delirium is "near" (well, two months...), so I'm going to remove all the sales in the next days.

Yeah I think we need to change the title up there.

As I said in the Delirium thread, Evil Deck will leave taipei the 31th of march, headed to Michigan. Probably will be fullfiled in may (the slow boat take ages to cross the Pacific). The good news is that EPCC sent me a pic of the final, producted Evil Deck (the only I have, so far).

[badpete69]

Great new Giovanni. My prototype needs company

[Thirdway Industries]

@badpete69 - Ahah that's great! Are you are keeping it closed?

[badpete69]

Yes for now it remains sealed

[Thirdway Industries]

Oh I see

Now you need a "regular" Evil Deck to open. That crazy cards are made to be seen :p

Hope our ship will move fast.

[volantangel]

Cant wait for these ! =D

[Thirdway Industries]

A couple of Evil Decks and Delirium are in my hands!

The decks will arrive in US harbor tomorrow, I think they'll be shipped the first days of may.

Stay tuned on Thirdway Industries Facebook page for more pics.

Nice pic EcNate
The Evil Female joker is probably my fav one, I printed it on a pillow.

About the Good Deck: I'm 100% focused on Omnia now, I think it have a different potential than Good Deck.
Anyways a lot of people asked me (I was already working on Omnia, so I just responded vague) so I may consider to Kickstart it. I want to see how Evil Deck sales will go (I'm assuming that every Evil Deck owner want his Good twin).

I'll also respond public to a question you asked: we printed 2,000 Delirium (more than 1,200 already sold) and 2,000 Evil Deck. I have only 432 Evil Decks, others will be sold by Expert Playing Cards co.

So EPCC is gonna sell these Giovanni? I didn't jump on the preorder coz I wanted to save a bit on shipping.

Any way to get them here in the US for now?

[Thirdway Industries]

Hi Eoghann, yes, EPCC will sell them, I think they'll ship directly from Taipei.
I really think retail price will be the same of mine (14,95) , but no idea about their shipping costs.

Sorry if someone already posted this information

[Timmargh]

I saw this on Reddit and meant to post it here but it slipped my mind. I bought a few for *ahem* future purposes.

Looks like EPCC has reprinted GIo's Evil deck after all. Available for only $14.95 at their Conjuring Arts store with discount of 30% if you buy a brick or more. If I recall correctly, this was the deck that started it all for Gio. I highly recommend this deck for those who love semi-transformational decks and art decks.

https://store.conjuringarts.org/product ... ni-meroni/

[Thirdway Industries]

I guess that those are the original Evil Decks, not a reprint
EPCC printed some more to sell on their own, I've got only 432 that were sold out long time ago.

Yes, Evil Deck was my very first deck, took 1+ year for design - not because I've designed it endlessly, just because I've took long pauses because I was not sure if I wanted to finish it or not.

[theCapraAegagrus]

The Evil Deck is probably my 3rd favorite Gio deck.

[Räpylätassu]

The Evil Deck is probably my 3rd favorite Gio deck.

I think it's an okay deck... And when compared to Gio's other work like Sins, Dedalo or Omnia: The Golden Age, it's about worthy enough to carry the groceries and wash the toilets of those decks Should not be even mentioned in the same sentence.

It's very unusual to wait 4 years with >1000 decks in stock
