Hi guys, I recently just joined and looking to expand my mini deck collection.
Oh yeah, I'm from Australia

Welcome, mate!

Welcome, Howdy! Welcome. Lots of great cards around to build a collection.

Does it still count as a collection even if they haven't arrived yet? XD I've only begun my collection, and recently I have been on a shopping spree for a handful of minis, so they're still waiting to be delivered. Currently I only have these four in my possession:
Waddingtons - Orient Line to Australia 1924 dual mini deck The 'Piatnik Vienna - Austria dual deck' is a micro size deck but I still consider it in my 'mini' collection. Ellusionist Artifice Tundra mini I do also have 'Air deck' black slim deck. But I will make another post soon in regards to minis in one of the other topic sections. Thanks kevork.

Thanks Timothy! Thanks for the purchase by the way. Looking forward to them when they arrive in a months' time haha.

Thanks GandalfPC, I believe it will not be growing that big since it will mainly be minis .

Welcome aboard!

I really like the idea of only collecting a very specific subset of the vast array of possibilities. It keeps the hunt very interesting. And, even though you'll likely spend more per deck than most other collectors (because what you're collecting is typically much rarer than standard-sized decks), you'll end up shelling out a *lot* less money than those of us poor bastards who feel the need to get every deck by a given designer, producer, etc.

There's another fellow on the boards here (GavinWongMagic) who usually collects only cards with green backs. What a fantastic niche!

Cheers!

That is one thing I'm glad about the minis, which is that there aren't too many being produced currently by indivduals or kickstarters . So hopefully my collection doesn't get too big before I have to start selling some off haha.
Thanks for letting me know about GavinWongMagic. I checked out his youtube channel!

In case they escaped notice - Black Tiger mini’s

And some Ink Beast mini pics, as mentioned in your marketplace thread by kevork…

Thank you GandalPC for the deck photos. The Ink Beast has a nice chrome shine to it, but I'm not too sure whether I am going to get it.
I have it on my wishlist on Penguin Magic. Maybe if the store goes on sale during this final quarter of the year, I'll probably snatch one.

I don’t recall seeing all of the Artifice minis on your list.

Welcome man!

Nice is that your collection :0? I think it would cost too much for me to collect them all XD.
