Really liking these so far. Different enough from anything else I have from widdak. It will come down to price and timing. Any idea when these release and/or fund?

I really like these, but the Jokers don't seem to fit in with the rest of the deck...quite different style than the courts and such.

The widdak courts are starting the look too similar to me. It's almost as if the style is so distinct that I see each iteration as widdak instead of Shades of widdak. Idk about this one.

No further info from @marvelousdecks on instagram other than "soon".

Not saying this is accurate at all, but it reminded me of Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V.

I understand. It may be similar to other things he's done, but not similar to anything of his I own. I'll need to see the other courts etc. to decide for sure.

They're released? Not quite my cup of tea personally but a very solid deck with great foil usage imo. Most creators should take note here on how to foil.

The Kickstarter for this one hasn't gone live yet. The pics are from their instagram.

This deck is a home run. Loving what Srdjan and Kellar put together here.

These look great but I'm a little confused by how the campaign page is organized. There seem to be 4 different tucks pictured ( drawer box style and a normal tuck for both decks) but the campaign only talks about the drawer style ones.

My understanding is there are two decks, with outer sleeves that look like this...
...under which are these:
And then if you open those up, you get the two "actual" tucks:

I think the bottom picture is the underside of the drawer box. You might be right about the sleeves, I'm sure they'll clarify.

Yeah, I think the cards just sit in the drawer box. No regular tuck box.

And in this picture you can see the "sleeve" in the background

They just clarified ( and updated the text on the pic) and as HSBC said, it's an outside sleeve that goes outside the drawer box.

I've seen a lot of Chinese decks implement this style of card enclosure. I'm looking forward to the implementation. The walnut box looks a bit odd with the decks just sitting in there free to move around. There must be something missing there. Steve could have done a better job with the photos so that people could make sense of what's what.
It's hard to say if this campaign will fund, and I can't quite put my finger on the reasons why as I do have a few criticisms, but so far, I'm liking it and have been a strong supporter of Kellar's decks. I'll do my part to try to spread the word and if it doesn't fund, I'm confident it'll come back more refined if need be.

This would be a crime if they didn't fund.

I get it, there's some extra material with the box within a box within a sleeve, but isn't this a little... costly for what it is? Roughly $30 per, including shipping and that's EB pricing. idk.

I'd be very surprised if this doesn't get funded. We'll see about the stretch goals. I think the campaign page was holding it back a bit. They've updated it now though with extra pics, text and videos that make it much clearer. I'm in for a HOW deck, debating on whether to upgrade to a gilded version.

Now to decide the punishment that fits the crime. I'm all in for this campaign as I have all of Kellar's works so far. I'll have extra decks that I'll likely need to sell/trade after the fact, so I'll try to give good deals to people who miss the campaign.

If I read it through the campaign description, THANK Goodness it's just two editions - all the showcasing makes the illusion there are a lot XD
Although, seeing the stretch goal, there might be two additional editions X.X - but at the speed of the funding, think it will just stay at two (and I'll be relieved)

decent designs but not unique enough to me to justify the price.
