Odds and Ends

EDIT/PREFACE: Odds and Ends is for EVERYBODY to post their Odds and Ends
I think decks that have indices with all the denominations in black but the pip index in the suit color look good
The first pic has a comparison of Jaren Barlocker's Cactus Standard deck and his Desert Design deck (but overall the all red DD may be the better deck)
The second pic shows the Bicycle Ghost deck (no doubt the index pip being the only thing red helps it stand out brilliantly) and the other Ellusionist deck is the E deck (or Team deck) which was probably referencing it as this deck contains many references to past Ellusionist decks
I am sure I have another deck with the black/red indices mix but I am still looking for it

Ellusionist's Rockets do have it as well.
If I remember correctly Daniel Madison toyed around with that on his hellions and saints decks.

Fantastic - do they taste any good?
Raspberry and possibly a Yoghurt one too
I don't think I am going to be able to get them in Oz

Soft chewy texture, similar to a Laffy Taffy. Very artificial raspberry flavor, which isn’t for me but not bad by any means (I usually love raspberry flavored things).

There is something Odd about this one of my favorite decks

Lol. I never compared the numbers. Seems like they didn't update the faces when the printed a new edition. Is that the only edition where they don't match?

I just checked, 17 and 18 are both correctly marked
Looks like I can get 15 and 16 as a two for one

Or they didn't update the tucks
The only mismatch although the recent No.23's were obviously intended to come out in 2023

Played around with the Childhood playing cards from Lunzi and realized that they’re one colour for all suits but the hearts. I didn’t realize that at first. Nice addition to the Odds and Ends
. Would be interesting to know if that is intentional or a mishap.
Plus the “power ace” being the QoH… another oddity.

It makes sense considering they are themed around Alice in Wonderland

I didn't even realise Fulton had a new deck up. With that tuck design - rather boring - should I check for the cards?

I figured I add this example for reversed coloured suits.

Yes, I bought them for their oddness (and the simplicity and color of the back)
Just like I bought the Lefties deck which is also very off-putting

One of our posters is trying to lead me astray as he sent me the following beauty
I think I will need to do a GoFundMe for the €480

The Odd Fellows: Dr. Crow (#110/300) is being auctioned on SoCal right now
The bid is already over $400
I am thinking that this going to be one of the more expensive MPC decks in existence!

I'm more surprised by the final price of El Sapo for $255, about double what I would've expected. Crow is super high in demand so it's not over yet! Curious where it'll end.
