If the red deck is reached, it'll definitely need some gold on it somewhere.

I hope so too. Those shades of blue and red just complement each other so well.

The project will definitely fund... at this point, how high?

I think your shipping to the US is great too.

This allows me to include all the costs and have free shipping worldwide.

Launch date will be on 12th November 6pm GMT!

I want to thank everyone that had their input for this deck to create a better design. Now I need your help to spread the word!
Can I just walk over to the fulfillment centre and pick them up?
Woah another Hong Konger? I used to live in Discovery Bay.
Well, there will be free shipping worldwide, so why not wait at home instead? :lol:
For the opportunity to say I got them first? :D

Well you would probably be getting them first since HK to HK shipping would be much quicker than the rest.
We are almost funded! Really want to push it to 10k to get the red deck as well

Alvin, I remember talking to you last time you gave these a go. I thought it was a travesty they didn't get funded. So glad to see you are having such success this time around. It truly is a beautiful deck. You deserve this success and I hope it continues.

Hey Walrus, Yes indeed! Well thankfully it got funded this time, I think the artwork got more mature and its much better this time around.
Hopefully, I can make this an ongoing thing for me. Would love to design more playing cards for people!

So I'm assuming if you back a pair, if the red gets unlocked, you can pick 1 green and 1 red?

First of all the color is CLEARLY teal. You're ignorance in regards to color is insulting.
:lol: Juuuuuuuust kidding!


I sincerely hope i can do 1 and 1. Otherwise I'll have to back off and pick 1.

Hey Stacey,

Thats awesome! Thanks for posting a picture. Even I haven't received the decks yet!
Glad they landed safely to backers.

I have learnt a lot during the process and hope the second deck will go much more smoothly.
Once again, thanks for those who backed Sishou Four Beasts!!!

Nooooo, I got mine before you? I'd be going wild with anticipation if I was you right now. They look nice, believe me, the cards inside feel smooth too. They are obviously in the UK now so you shouldn't be far behind for postage. :)

I told LPCC to airmail the decks to all backers. As for the remaining, around 144 decks they will be surface mailed to me, so will take a while.
I guess I have to stick with looking at the pictures from my backers!
