Ehm... no. Production volume and history speaks for only two real big boys. Cartamundi and their newest daughter USPC. Legends is definitely on par (or better?) when it comes to the quality but saying they are a big boy is like saying Koenigsegg or Pagani is a big boy car company.

ur wrong tho

Quality > Quantity

Campaign has been sitting at 37% a couple of days now, slowed down completely.

I wanted to see how the glitter would come out so bad. Now I'm sure these won't even fund, which blows. It's a sad day for those of us who appreciate Randy's whimsy: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=16130&start=20#p183766" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Big boy is referring to production volume and/or revenue (or a deck series ). Quality has nothing to do with it. If you personally take quality into account and even make it your key factor, well then Legends is a big boy for you and Princess. It's not for Piazza and me. Just a matter of perspectives. There is no right and wrong, lol.

TwoPiece’s favorite Decks, the KING of TIGERS Decks, will relaunch tomorrow at Noon EDT!

I have some of the finished Decks (while the rest are on the slow boat).

They turned out beautifully!!

The Holographic Effects Foil is super cool (printed by the same printer as the Holographic Legal Tender).

Only 7 days, small goal. 24 Hour Early Birds. Here’s a KS Preview Link:

Wohoo, i'm so happy that this decks get another chance.
Count me in for a half Brick

Took the words out of my mouth.

LIVE! OP Updated.

KS search is on the fritz again. I hope they get their act together soon.

I'm In, of course I am. These candy coated sparkle shimmer shine must be mine.
I've never seen anything like this on a card back.

Kinda seriously wants me an uncut. How would one go about accomplishing this feat? I'm starting to wonder and beginning to form a plan.

Backed

I'm actually going to open one of these decks! The EB trio averages $12 per deck including shipping. Hell yes. If this doesn't fund then I don't know what's up or down anymore.

I don’t mind The Tiger King and his one man circus but this deck doesn’t really appeal to me. That being said I’ll probably back it because Randy is a cool dude. I like to support the artists as much as I can. Same with JR, I support him for a small portion of the decks and the endless hours of entertainment on his live feed.

I have never and will never see that show. And I'm in for 3 decks. I look at them as a nice, glittery tiger deck that has nothing to do with the show. I'm so happy it funded!!

I am in for 2 pair and also excited to see it funding this time. It looks like they were planning to put some of their money up to get it to fund with the very low funding goal. It looks to be a very bling deck at a very affordable price point. Great bang for your buck.

That was fast, Randy - congrats!

It's still a mystery to me why this didn't fund on it's first attempt.
I'm so happy that it did it this time and can't wait to get these in my hands

Btw. i would love to see a black/red somewhere in the future
(sorry for stealing & editing the photo from the campaign page)

In for the pair. Congrats on funding!

If you're poking around looking for a gem. There's an a bit less than an hour left on this campaign and some EB's available.

He's locking down backerkit tonight. Get in on it if you missed the campaign.

Got my pair of Tigers today. Damn they are impressive with that "sparkle" holographic backs. Well done Randy! Thanks!

I agree they're impressive. I've never seen, nor felt anything like them.


(Photos will never do this justice. Should be experienced, really.)

I got mine today too and I purposely got an extra gold deck so I could open one. Randy: you out did yourself! I seldom open decks but I'm so happy I opened this one. They are awesome! Pictures do not do them justice.

A snap of the blue deck even though photos don't do it justice at all.
Not in any way. These should be experienced in my opinion, they're really very nice!

Super happy with these decks. I think if they had metallic inks on the faces they'd have been perfect, but at this price point, really can't complain about the inks he chose. These backs are totally boss, and I'm super happy to have these in my collection. Randy is such a class act and such a good designer. I'm adding one of these to my "decks in rotation" for my nightly games with my kids.

Nice! I bet you get some positive reactions from all that magic shimmer shine on the card back. I'm trying not to mess with mine too much right now as I'll be adding one of the KoT decks into my EDC for next month. I don't know which one yet but one is definitely going in for October use. The coin is going in now though. Heads on both sides is always great for a gag.

I just got my decks in today. These were done by Legends. I kind of always thought Legends was basically the same as EPCC. However, these cards had great foil bling on the backs, but not the fronts. The handling was much better than what I saw from Legal Tender. They were great right out of the box and mostly standard thickness. Anyway, from a handling perspective, they were really good for a hot foil back deck.

I love these decks. They feel great.
I recommend this deck. Color doesn't matter.
Seriously, pick a deck up and try it out.
(it even cleans up well!)
