Some highlights include: Federal 52 Legacy (6/7), Tally-Ho Black Diamond Tactical Legacy (7/10), Black Gilded-Black Reserve Note (39/50), Tiger Legacy (9/12, also want to give my thanks to Dentyne), Christmas Edition Verum Videre (xx/30?), Labyrinth Gilded Solved (12/25) and Unsolved (15/25), and Pi Craft (13/25). I have a few prototypes, displays, "crappys", artist proofs, and overruns as well.
I've focused mainly on the rarer stuff first, and trying to snatch up reasonably priced decks and other miscellaneous items as they come.

Well, twist my nipple-nuts and send me to Alaska; that's a hell of a collection.

Shall we tell Daisho about the green Six Foot Five f&f edition? Lol.

Plus side of being a KWP completionist, you don't have to care for any other designer at all since, you're busy to catch up with all the releases.

P.S.: What does that DB Dell deck doing there?

Jackson did the back design

Federal 52 legacy edition? Where's that from. I don't see anything about it in the first two fed 52 kickstarters

Do you also have the Federal 52 Letterpress Edition?



Probably my most-wanted super-rare JR deck

Well, the really rare ones are the Intaglio decks that were printed on the Intaglio presses using copper plates. I think he still as a one of one version. I think you might even be able to get a White and Gold deck from KWP directly. I'll settle for a stray card from the red and white deck...

Hey guys, is there any way to tell if a Labyrinth deck is the solved or unsolved version from the sealed tuck?

Dunno about the other editions, I only have the box set. Besides the limited label on the bottom you can tell that the tuck box of the solved edition (right) is a bit darker since, the stock is pearlescent and the unsolved edition (left) is more white since, it is matte stock.

Well after subbing to standard Shorts this year and getting El Toro I'm now fully indoctrinated with an order placed for VHS, 20/20 and Postage Paid. AND subbed for Limited Bicycle sub as well.

2020 stickers / certificate are / were only available on Shorts limited subscription decks?

That's right, it's for the Short subs only . That month's LE deck will come with the corresponding sticker. Sometimes he'll sell LE decks or other special decks that come with a Joker sticker that's good for any month. You don't really need the cert as sometimes they got lost, but you do need to show 12 stickers.

However he's also having a different sticker and pie chart for the Pie series, which is available to everyone who buys the Pie decks. Each complete set gets a special pie deck at the end of the year.

Thanks Eric

Might not be the correct place to post this but: will the Solstice Limited and Gilded have different tuck boxes?

And while we're at it, does the Equinox I v2 Gilded have a different tuck to the standard? And the blue Equinox Limited and Gilded?

I've looked at photos but without seeing them side-by-side it's difficult to be sure. Plus my ability to gauge hue, depth etc. is awful.

Based on JR’s IG post, yes, they will.

That's what I thought at first but then I noticed that one deck is reflecting the light and the other is in shadow; they could still be the same, couldn't they?

Wow. So glad you've decided to do this weekly updates on YT and actually take the trouble to have it posted here as well! Always miss your IG updates due to time difference and busyness. Now we'll all be able to be updated without worrying what we missed.

Thank you!

Signed up for May and beyond. Excited to see what is to come.

There are some really good Subscription decks coming out the rest of this year, especially the Robin Hood and General Admission decks.

Yeah the RH deck sucked me in. It’s not cheap for me (limited deck ~$70) but I’m a sucker for folklore-centric decks. Solstice, however, made me pull the trigger. I liked the Equinox decks but was broke. Hopefully I can back order some of those I missed. JR (and this is going to sound meaner than I intend) doesn’t often produce decks that appeal to me (Arthurian KS was the last one I bought) but he’s knocked these out of the park.

I bought a VHS limited last week and it actually came with the February sticker. Kinda tempts me to get a limited sub and try filling in the other limited decks I'd need for the complete set - but can anyone confirm I'm likely to get the remaining stickers with individual decks like I did the VHS/Feb sticker, so I can finish the project?

If you buy limited decks from KW then you should get stickers but a lot of them are sold out at this point. No guarantee you'll get the stickers from other retailers. Except I know Murphy's sends out Pi stickers with the pi decks because of the deal they have with Kings Wild.

Every 2020 limited deck is still in stock at KWP, that's what led me to consider this in the first place. I could, in theory, sub now and buy up the three decks I need to get the 13th deck at the end of the year.

Yes, if you get the previous limited decks from KWP for 2020 and get the remaining ones, you can get the limited 13th deck. I would suggest going forward you seriously consider subscribing. If for no other reason than a lot of the remaining subscription decks this year that I have seen are going to be great. However, you can most likely get the standard version of the 13th deck when it comes out. If last year was any indication, then you also can get a gilded version as well.

Ah, yes indeed. I thought you meant for 2019 as well, sorry

I'm already a standard subscriber since Feb. I might have actually gone for limited to begin with but I didn't know all about the stickers etc then and was just dipping my toe in the water so to speak. Kind of thinking I might just want both subs, you can never have too many good decks of cards.

I've seen some of the previews and the KWP list with upcoming decks, and as you mention, it's very tempting.

I pulled the trigger on this, bought all 2020 limited decks to get caught up and picked up a limited sub to keep the standard sub company.

Interestingly, I actually have delayed shipping and the VHS limited got shipped anyway by mistake, but I would say it worked out well in the end. When I saw that I actually got 020/500 and a sticker too, it is what made me want to go ahead and get the whole year. My June quarterly shipment is going to be pretty sweet!
