I remember watching that go live in the instagram auction. I think it went between $200-$300. I miss those live actions. They were fun. Pretty good ROI to say the least.

Overprized? Kinda. Would I do it without hesitation? Heel no. But if I would be that much into the Dark Green version... who knows. Luckily I didn't see the listing so I didn't had to contemplate about it and I still prefer the standard version. But I have to admit the dark tuck is growing on me. At the end of the day it is just money and it is hard to put a price tag on a 1 out of 7 collector's item.
Christmas KWP long-sleeved shirts are up on the site. There is at least one of every size, with several sizes having a couple or more (as of 3:45 PM, Pacific Time) Pretty fun!
There is a 13th day sale going on on KWP. If you have stayed away, you might want to grab something quick before they go away.
One interesting offer is a $20 package for Premium Tally Ho Overrun + Red Equinox Numbered + Signed Intaglio Card. I just got a set in today, and I can confirm that the Intaglio card is one of the Intaglio impression cards. I am sure it will be a number card (mine was at least). However, I am not going to spend $675 for a set, so $20 for a sample card I can have and the other stuff is a nice deal. Other stuff are also nice. Most of the deals are still available. I am not sure how long the sale will continue, but it is currently open.

I've just ordered this - thanks for the pointer.
Is the Red Equinox just another name for the Equinox I reprint they did a while ago? If so, I wish they'd stick to the names; it gets bloody confusing!
Yes, it is the Equinox I reprint (800 issued and numbered). I have several as well as the Olive Tally Ho. I was mainly going for the Intaglio card and considered the other two decks as nice extras. From the description, I was unsure if it was the Intaglio impressed card or not, but from the photo I was fairly sure it was the Intaglio printed cards. Still, I was not sure others caught what included, which is why I mentioned it before the sale ends.

Jackson has several December 2019 Limited Artist Proof decks for non subscribers. They are now for sale on the main website. There was a problem and no extra standard decks were available to anyone other than subscribers that had them preordered.

I got lucky on the start of a new decade. I've just received a $252 + $15 (shipping) package from KWP (Shorts + some delayed shipping decks) and no VAT or customs hit my package. Just got it from the post office with no charge at all. That's a first time that happened and with one of the most expensive package from KWP I ever had.
From what I understand, the gilded Nutcracker is delayed along with the green gilded Reserve Note and copper gilded Invocation. I am a first-time gilded subscriber as of December, so I think I read it is usually a month delay automatically from the limited and standard counterparts. With the gilding backup, it could be into February at this point. *sigh* I really want to hold those Invocation decks in my hand!
I was really surprised by the Nutcracker deck by the way. I didn't expect it to be so shiny! It quickly became one of my favorite 2019 shorts deck. And it has a really interesting scent, is that scented on purpose or is it just a byproduct of the production process?

Jackson pulled some strings!?
I don't know if I should risk it. I'm eyeing some stuff but it would hit with a minimum of €120 charges+taxes if it get caught by customs .

I don't know. The customs declaration on the package seems to be same as before.
I just got back to work and picked up several packages waiting for me including the KWP December Subscription decks "Nutcracker". Can anyone tell me who printed the decks? I was thinking EPCC, but not certain. They seem stiffer than other examples of theirs I have. Also, does anyone know if they used cold or hot foil on the cards? I thought it was going to be cold foil, but it looks like they used hot foil stamping for the cards.

I'm pretty sure it's EPCC and epcc usually uses hot foil i believe

Yes they were printed by EPCC, it IS hot foil but made in a different way. We complelelty laminated the gold foil onto the cards (explination for the extra stiffness cuz there is full foil on both sides) then we printed ontop of the foiling. There wasn't a hot foil plate used so thats why there is no bruising of the card stock like with normal hotfoiling.
Thanks for the explanation Jackson. I was comparing them to The Entertainer cards EPCC did in cold foil, and both the foil and handling looked/felt noticeably different.

Thanks for the clarification. Let's put it this way, if you are willing to spend the money, EPCC can print just about anything that is possible. Except maybe multiple hot foil printings. They probably will leave that to Lotrek from now on.
At least I was correct, EPCC does print using cold foil. Most importantly for me, they can print CMYK over silver foil.
