UnitedCardists.com - The forum for Cardistry, Magic, Custom Decks and All Things Playing Cards.

I saw this on FB, but there is not much information. I know she was involved with quite a few other decks on KS that I picked up, so I am interested for sure. Once it gets launched, I will update the thread with that information. (EDIT: Updated since it is now live)

Looks interesting... hope it has a bunch of killer clowns like the Bicycle deck had in 2014 [MURRAY]

PIC Removed to avoid more confused kids hehehe

Marianne Larsen as in Isolated Thunderstorm? Can't wait to see more. Could you share the link?

That artwork is absolutely diabolical, and I love it. Is there anything creepier than the carnival/circus theme? Not for me since I read Bradbury's Something Wicked this way Comes. Mr. Dark and that creepy balloon flying witch still terrorize me lol.

Will these be done by Nicolai? If so, I'll certainly be in for them. The backs look nice.

I have no other information other than that picture, which was posted with her FaceBook account to a couple of the playing card groups on FB.

Count me as another curious to know what "By Marianne Larsen" means exactly. I was under the impression that she manages projects for Isolated Thunderstorm, but if she's the artist on this, that would certainly be interesting.

This stuff is sick ....I'm in!

So everyone isn't confused - the pics shown by badpete69 are not associated with the one picture of the Circus by Marianne Larsen. They are already available and are part of the Bicycle Killer Clowns deck that ran on KS in 2014.

Thanks for un-confusing me. I'm out.

I didn't think 1 sentence would confuse so many people hehehe... Yes the pic I included is an old Bicycle deck... I liked that one so much I even got the uncut sheet

They're not from the same deck.

I removed the pic.... that will teach me to bring in an old deck pic [BACON]

Frkin' Pierre.

I'm sure they'll be NPCC printed. Doesn't matter to me though.

[deleted due to existing topic - OOPS!]

Numbered seals are on the bottom, much like Parlour. I like that!

I like them and I am in.

Updates now that it is live.

Merged topics.... Bacon was asleep at the wheel hehe

These look great, how could I resist

Same here - getting one of each. But what is up with KS lately? I noticed the same thing occurring on another pledge - it won't get added to your pledge dashboard or even show up in a search for hours. But if you have a direct link, you can get there and of course, they will immediately take your CC information no questions asked. It is annoying.

Backed for a pair!

I would be lying if I said I was not a tad bit disappointed that these were not done by Nicolai, but these are f#$%ing amazing!! This deck checks off every box for me. Amazing art on the cards AND the tuck, especially the Black Mosquito edition. Metallic inks. Great theme. COPPER foil! And last, but not least, bottom tuck seals!

Yes, AND that half-brick/brick box. I saw how nice that looked and checked out the price for a half brick - so reasonable I could not stop myself from upping my pledge to a half-brick. I'm loving this art.

Aaaaaand, it's funded. In four hours. Fantastic first project already!

Anyone realize that the Black Mosquito edition has a one-way back design?

Yes, it specifically states Deluxa is two-way and Black Mosquito is one-way.

Yup, I know the faces were one-way as highlighted, just find it odd to also have the back one-way haha, the image provided for the back was more subtle.
