I have found almost all OPC's other releases to be cute. Except these. I don't know what it is about them but I'm not fully on board.

[Eric Lee]

Same here. I'll have to see the courts before I can decide.

[shermjack]

Totally agree...for me, its the milk splash that doesn't look right

[Harvonsgard]

Milk splash... that's a relief. At first glance I thought it was the creators being very excited about their new design.
Felt like it has been a while since their last release. Still not a long enough break to peak my interest.

How do you have "Whole Grain Gluten Free"?

[MagikFingerz]

How do you have "Whole Grain Gluten Free"?

I guess that's the joke? Maybe?

[STLBluesNut]

another easy simple dual logo deck by OPC. probably standard courts holding a copy paste bowl, spoon, milk etc. not for me.

[vasta41]

I'm hoping FFP continues their "food & beverage" series with a better version of this. "Milk & Cereal" would be a nice addition to their line, IMO.

[shunterino]

Is Far-Os meant to be a pun of some kind? I'm not American so maybe I'm missing some sort of US specific cereal. Cheerios is the only that sounds close to me. What am I missing?

[STLBluesNut]

probably a pun of faro shuffling

[vasta41]

probably a pun of faro shuffling

That's what assumed as well. But that pun doesn't quite land with me. How I feel about this deck in a nutshell. A nut-free nutshell if you can believe it!

[STLBluesNut]

especially when all their other decks have been 'ers' decks. sqeezers peelers snackers etc. the whole line is pretty bland and generic to me anyhow.

[shunterino]

Yeah, I guess so, although the different pronunciations sort of makes it fall flat, imo.

I don't think any of their other decks have used card move puns before have they? Seems a little odd they decided to try one now and such a tortured one. Would have fit their brand better if they named it something generic non-specific like 'Loops' to go with slicers and peelers. Mind you I know nothing about marketing and these guys have been selling old rope like hot dogs so I guess they know what they're doing.


Edit: Maybe Spooners, Crunchers, Milkers... wait, maybe not that last one.

[Harvonsgard]

Definitely the last one, haha!

[STLBluesNut]

lol! yes milkers definitely.

[STLBluesNut]

yep, called first pic of courts released, standard king holding a giant spoon

[justinls1]

As much as I love OPC, this deck is just not for me.

Far-Os, $8.95

Breakfast is the MOST IMPORTANT meal of the day! We are thrilled to introduce you to our newest line: The Far-Os Playing Cards! We have had this idea kicking around for a while and we are so excited to see it become a reality! Printed by USPCC on premium crushed stock this is the perfect deck to start any day with! This deck is a limited 3k print run, so set those alarms! This deck follows the usual OPC theme with a fun yet simple back design clever tuck box and slightly custom court cards! When you buy 6 decks you get them in a fun cereal box-inspired half brick box! There are even games on the back!

[Harvonsgard]

While still far away from being for me, the price point is nice during these days.

[hsbc]

GILDED FAR-Os are HERE!!! Those of you that bought a brick will have access to buying 1 gilded deck per brick you bought THIS SATURDAY at 1pm EST. At Midnight EST Saturday night we will then have the public release! This will be the ONLY TIME the program works like this! After community feedback we will be changing it to qualifying for 1 gilded deck purchase per half brick with no public release.

Also the original amount to be made was 100 but there were a lot of bricks bought and we wanted to have some for a public release. So that is why it is 150.

[Harvonsgard]

White gilding and I would have been interested.

[kasuma99]

White gilding and I would have been interested.

White?

[Harvonsgard]

Yah white, as in the opposite of black me friend.
Would be a meta joke symbolising and how not suited this deck is for gilding.
