Wonder where the rest would be available. Apparently it's a full print run but only 80 of each on their website.

I like the back design and pips, don't like the re-colored courts and the plain tuck box. If they're going to charge the prices they're charging, we need to see better tucks with embossing, foil, interior tuck printing, etc... Also, I don't like that phallic thing going on above the word Unicorn.

Aloys decks are starting to all look the same to me. Don't get me wrong- I generally like them, including these. But I think they need to spice it up. Maybe with a jazzed up tuck finally like sinjin said.

I agree 100%. Boardwalk Papers is just a standard recolored deck but this one looks better. I like just the copper deck.

The design is good, but it's just not my cup of tea.

They are getting redundant. I like these two but don't see any immediacy to get them. They'll be on eBay at a good price. I didn't even get the last ones and used to be all over their decks.

I need more on the tuck if I'm paying $10 a deck. Just saying.

Same here.

Also I dislike their need to have the back design with non-white borders on the back of the box, because it usually looks better with black or colored borders, and that makes taking them out and seeing the white borders somewhat of a disappointment. Taking the cards out of the box should never be a disappointment.

Just ordered a split brick. Shipping was a little high, IMO. Just under $10.50 shipped so not too bad.
