Last three mails that i got in february, two orders from november and a KS project
The first one from Vanishing inc., the second one from buyworthy and the Third from Jack Brutus from his KS campaign

Very nice haul - especially the Culture Animalis.

Just picked up an extra Gemini Pollux set and this Bicycle Flight Deck Log Book from an old KS I missed in 2014.

Never seem this Bicycle Flight before, could you show how the logbook looks like closed? Just googled the deck, it looks really nice

There are a bunch of pictures showing the log book and other ephemera here:

Nice set!
the Brazilian currency lost 20% of its value internationally this year, so buying decks got 20% more expensive for me in about 2 months, so, before local stores reajust their prices I decided to buy a couple of decks around here from the KojiCards store, they shipped yesterday and arrived today, fast shipping, well packed and at the same price as in their official websites (for now). I'm still expecting a few packages from orders from last year, but will problably stop buying decks for a while now
The voyager from Theory 11, that I wanted for a while and the Antler Tobaco brown, that I saw for the first time this week browsing in ArtofPlay

Brazil you say...doesn't Copag print all their paper cards out of Brazil since that is where Copag was founded? I started collecting with Kem (hence the name) but I also collect Copag - but plastic only. I ran across someone from Brazil that collected their locally produced paper cards and they seemed to have a wide selection. Maybe we could trade some decks.

The plastic decks are made in Brazil, also the Standard (cheap) paper decks, the good paper copags are made in Belgium (They really should upgrade their Brazilian factory and produce the good ones here also, after all it's a local brand), I have a lot of the paper decks, but only two plastic sets (A few weeks ago I posted my Copag collection here).
Recently I looked at the U.S. copag website and you have a larger selection of plastic copags than we have here (and all of them are made here)

A friend of mine recently went to Indonesia and brought me back a lovely deck of cards:






Every single card has a different photograph on it:

I really like the style on the tuck box, would have been awesome if it were a regular deck in that kind of style. I wonder what the card back looks like?

I just came from customs and picked up my supply of 7-11s . I oddly like these decks and since we don't have any 7-11s here I have to import them.

I love the 7-11's also - must be the color or something. But even I have to order them off eBay since there are no longer any 7-11's in my part of the US.

Like this:

Just because I love me some Snoopy and I collect Bicycle, I had to pick up the Snoopy Museum Tokyo - next to my Astronaut Snoopy.

Let me know if either of you are looking for any 7-eleven decks, I can make a trip! There are like four or five 7-elevens within 20 minutes of me.

Much appreciated but I 'm fine with the 10 I have now. Count me in, in 2027 for 4 though (if they do a 100th anniversary ed.) .

Will do! Or if you need any Slurpee decks

The card back of the Bali deck is interesting, some designs of these souvenir decks should be made in a better printer
Nice find that Snoopy Museum Tokyo (I ordered the Astronaut snoopy from Japan, it'll probably arrive in a few weeks).
About the 7-11 decks. they were available only at the U.S stores? Last year I went to Canada and found only the blackjack deck (cartamundi).

Mail day from Japan! My first Nintendo deck, Studio Ghibli's Princess Mononoke (now I have Princess Mononoke, Laputa, Spirited Away and Kiki) and Bicycle Astronaut Snoopy.
I was waiting for these since November!

Oh those Ghibli decks... I NEED THEM ALL! I didn't even started to buy them yet. Where'd you bought them?

Got them in Amiami.com
Bought from them a few times, trustworthy store, Besides the ones I got, they also have Totoro and Ponyo decks
This is the store that I usually buy Japan-exclusive Bicycles

I can't either.

Doesn't work in IE, Chrome or Firefox. In short, stop sharing images that are hosted on a service/site that is not freely shared.

Wow, really? didn't realize that. I took the link from my google photos, apparently, Harvonsgard was able to see them.
I'll try to upload them again.
This was the last mails pics:
Antler and Voyager decks from Koji Cards
Mario deck (nintendo), Mononoke (studio Ghibli) and Bicycle Astronaut snoopy from Amiami
And all my Studio Ghibli decks, all from Amiami.

And just in case (I updated the last posts) my mails from February.
I uploaded the pics as attachments, could someone please explain how to upload as links? I was trying to open some pics from my google photos in a new window and posting . Thanks!

Yea, I can see them - but only after you initially post. After a day or so, they become unavailable. This is what everyone is seeing...

Good to know, Is there a specific place that you upload your photos to upload here? I appreciate.

You can use Imgur. For those that don't normally do this, here are the steps.

Just create upload the image to Imgur and publish/Post it to public. Open it up and right-click--> copy image location. Then use that with the "Img" option here.
Final Result

Final result of my last haul...

Arrrghhhh!!! That has been on my list for sooo long. I actually have one of the gold decks, but I want the case set and everytime I see it on eBay they either want too much for it or it just sold...lol! Good addition.
