The first deck in the "Pi Slice" series the Plum Pi is a fun colorful playing card deck great for both collecting and cardistry.

Available Friday, September 13th at 7:00 pm Central Time to subscribers. $16

No pics of the cards themselves, though, just the tuck - it's recolored and has a new plum design on the back

I see it in the subscribers page too. But I think it'll be available to to the public a day later after it comes out to the subscribers on Friday, so don't think it matters as much?

For this series, I think I'll skip the standard edition and just go straight for two gilded decks and build my collection this way (or on 2nd thought, may possibly pick up one standard edition also..). I'm really hoping Jackson can get the gilding done based on the color of the 'pi' for all of this series!!!

These look cute, I'm sad that I missed them

From the KW facebook page.

I'm rather looking forward to these and I'm glad that sticker collection thingy doesn't require you to buy the gilded version, but I guessed it would be that way.

I've always wanted an original Pi deck but the resellers I've come across have been asking too much for my wallet; these will scratch that itch instead.

*scritchyscritchy*

Woo got 2 gilded and 1 standard, with 3 sticker pages!

As of this post, there are 109 gilded pi's left for subscribers. Good luck everyone!

EDIT: down to 98 gilded decks remaining 5 minutes into launch!

Still quite a few gilded still available. I got one of each and a couple more Back to School standard decks (one of the better shorts decks this year).

I'm just interested, are these eligible for international bulk shipping with the short subs?
And yes, just became a newbie to the KW short sub.

While I can't comment on the international bulk shipping, congrats on becoming a KWP short sub! Welcome to the club!

The folks at Kings Wild are great to work with. Email Nick. If it is possible, Nick and team will do it for you.

Only 44 gilded Pi decks available for subscribers!

EDIT: 3 hours in from when it was released, and there's still 17 left.... surprising, i thought these would get sold out faster..

What color is the gilding on this deck?

This is the sheet the stickers will go onto:



Between these and the Table Players next year, I might have to stop getting standard editions of the Shorts decks and only order the limited decks....

I also really like the tuck color for the gilded Plum

I honestly am not certain about the gilding, but I am fairly sure it is purple gilding. It should be sweet, but not opening the deck. I really want to open one of my gilded Back to School decks, but just can't bring myself to do it. What is the point of having these beauties if I will not open them? I am as confused as anyone. I just can't do it though.

You should've picked up an extra gilded deck so you can open one..

You and vasta can probably start a support group for this

Brad - don’t tell me you became one of them tuckers...[emoji4]

Oh, I am most definitely a tucker. I am just not an extremist never-tucker! I mean I respect my tucks, but will occasionally open one.

Seriously, I opened one of my Las Vegas Ultraviolet decks the other day. In the case of Jackson's decks, I'll open the display decks, but to open a very limited deck in a series in which all the other decks in the series are unopened just to see some cool gilding? That isn't happening.

Plum Pi's now available for everyone. 15 minutes into launch, there are 109 gilded versions remaining. Good luck!

I like the color profile on the orange deck. I'm a sucker for sets but like the Planets set I'm afraid I will not be able to afford the whole set though I would love to. Anxious to see the rest of them.

EDIT Still hoping JR finishes the military deck series, too.

I just can't justify spending $31 shipped for a single Plum Pi.

What if it was Blue?
Would you by a Blue Pie?
Or maybe a few?
A few Blue Pies?



Seriously, I get how international shipping can suck the life out of this hobby. It would be nice if KWP could consolidate shipping for International orders, and not just short subscribers.

I'd probably take advantage of that, if he did.

I have been debating for two days... If I get two gilded and one standard... It's another $80 per months on top of my short sub... $200 per month for kwp decks is hard for me to pull the trigger... Well I was hoping the gilded one get sold out faster so I don't need to hesitate...

and sadly they do not combine shiping with the short subs as well..

I got one of each, I like the standard Plum tuck than the gilded Orange. I really wanna see how the Chicken Pi, Pumpkin Pi and Mud Pi will look.

Glad these didn't sell out immediately Just grabbed a standard - is there a note somewhere indicating how many there are? - and a sticker sheet (so I guess the Mud Pi deck is technically $5? ) Jackson please make all the stickers different colors so the sheet will end up as a shiny rainbow

You have more than one? OPEN IT NOW

$200 per month for kwp decks is hard for me to pull the trigger.

Welcome to my world! And, if you also add a pair of Artist Proof's, that raises your total to basically $300 per month just on the subscription decks...

I have opened a Back to School standard deck. That is the closest I will come.

I was just checking his website and there are still 62 Gilded Plum Pie decks. There are 755 Plum Pie Standard decks available . I forget how many were available, but there may be fewer of those out there than the gilded version! That also doesn't bode well for the series if KWP can't sell most of the decks of the first deck.

I opened up my gilded Back to School deck, and HOLY GUACAMOLE it is AWESOME!
