Bicycle Skull Playing Cards is another deck scheduled for release later this year.

The back design was taken from USPC archives, to reproduce a theme that is currently very popular. This back design is almost identical to the Bicycle Skull & Bones Playing Cards released last year by Conjuring Arts. Those decks featured a standard ace of spades and this one has a custom skull & crossbones ace of spades. In addition the skull on the back is slightly different and this deck will only be available in Air-Cushion Finish, where as the conjuring arts version was available in Air-Cushion Finish and an Ivory Finish. Release date is tentatively scheduled for August 1, 2013.

It's no secret that I love the CARC versions, but I am going to pass on these. CARC are printed on Bee Casino, I assume these are on Standard stock.

The CARC release wasn't that long ago. I wonder why USPC would do this

You can still get them on amazon

It is true these are nicer but this last releases fever reminds me Merz's craziness...

It wasn't very smart of them to release these so soon after the CARC Skull & Bones deck. I'm going to pass on these.

I understand all these decks are unlimited. Am I correct?

A plain pure total ripoff... Don't know why, but as said not a very smart move.

Looks like they're still in stock at CARC.....

The front of the tuck case is probably the best part of the whole thing itself. However, I think the playing card community has seen it's fair share of skull cards and are probably sick of seeing so many. I'm also confused as to why the art doesn't seem to match together.

Now available

In case anyone else had their order delayed by Bicycle, I heard back from their customer service today saying that there was a delay in production and they are expecting to receive and ship the cards this Thursday.

We now have these in stock and the should be on our website in the next few days.

Thanks!

These are now on our website:
