I'm in.

About time this is announced...

I'm really liking this shade of green. I hope I can spring for more this time around.

Yep, can't stop now

Seriously, if the prices last time are any guide, I hope Jackson doesn't have too many more children.

Plus green was one of the rarest Tally Ho deck out there with only that special magic deck being the Tally Green. I know Aloys made one reverse green but in the end it's a beautiful color. Damn this is going to be expensive again

I've given up any thought of retirement. When they come get my cold stiff corpse it will be at work. Probably still on KS in the act of pledging.....

Anyone up for a trip to see the Wizard of Oz?

Maybe I can get a gilded deck this time if they would exist.

Getting A deck this time would be nice. The Scarlets sold out in no time at all. (ISO BTW)

Hopefully it will cost less this time around, prices are getting a bit out of hand.

Victor - It's always more never less. Prices in making cards always rise. Besides Jackson likes his bells and whistles on his limited decks. He is always doing new and interesting things.

Oh yeah, I'm totally in on this one. That green is just fantastic.

*opens wallet and is met with a puff of dust*

Welp, looks like I'm finally going to have to sell one my kidneys...

Prices aren't dramatically rising and maybe we don't need all the bells and whistles, just some of them. Either way others offer all the bells and whistles and for less. I would like to know how much extra we are paying on these decks.

You're right Vic, we are paying extra for these and I don't have a problem with that. I like how he did his last campaign with limited numbers per tier and refused to budge. He didn't add fluff items such as prints, art book, etc. to make more profit. Maybe he is charging a little more each deck, quit whining so much.

I'm in!

Just tell me when!

I think prices have risen. Ever since Kickstarter separated shipping, prices have increased a lot. In addition, printing companies have also raised their prices.

I might pick this one up, would have to see what they look like though.

Didn't go with JR's early Tallys but did go in on the last ones. This looks interesting. Hope it plays off the last.

Is this going to be the released before Fed 52 2nd Ed. and Legal Tender?

I'm sorry if I prefer that decks are more affordable. We should all want that.

I'm getting sick and tired of you. It doesn't seem to matter what I say, it seems like every time I make a post all you do is accuse me of whining, enough already! I'm sorry if I prefer that decks are more affordable. We should all want that.

Sure you can want that, but Jackson likes his bells and whistles. He likes to do new and interesting things. If you don't like the price, don't buy it. I think Sher had a question? Damn, now I have to scroll back. Well, that's just great. Thanks Victor.

Not really sure. I know he was putting one deck on hold while he was moving so he may being putting everything on hold till he gets moved.

Wow, I really like this, very nice idea, very, very nice coloring. It will be interesting to see the price. Jackson has quite a following so he can get away with charging quite a bit, it's simple, supply and demand. I don't fault him for his pricing, it takes balls to start a business,vid I think something is too much, I just won't buy it. Especially playing cards, I have so many I see no reason to overpay for a particular deck. You see one you like but don't like the price just don't get cause you know something else of interest will be offered in a day or so, or maybe five minutes. Either way, great idea for this deck, I hope I'm able to pick a couple up. Nice job Jackson. I like your intricate work but something like this hits the spot.

Few pics that JR has released over the last few days. And it looks like he will be making 50 Legacy decks again. Not sure if I want to get one again but probably will try for it just to get the complete set.

What would this corner look like in a fan? On his Back of Card, he is going with a big center element with a duel mirror elements with corner badges. This is the most popular theme today. I still see his skinny clubs. I'll call that a Jackson trait now; I have accepted it, but his suit index is getting smaller and smaller. He does have the suit indicator which makes his cards..... When does the suit index size matter?

That's exactly why I don't get one in the first place, because I know I'd be thinking the same

It's easy and less hassle to collect all the "normal" deck versions.

True, but I think it's a crossover from my comic collecting mindset, I love getting the rare variant cover editions more than the regular ones. And while I wont outright say the rarer the better, I will admit it plays a part. Though there still has to be a quality design for me to pick up a deck. Someone can toss a limited edition 1 of 1 unique sticker on a turd but it's still going to be a POS no matter how much one tries to polish it. Conversely if someone puts in a great amount of effort and puts out a quality deck in virtually unlimited numbers I'll back them over the turd any hour any day.

JR definitely puts some serious effort into his decks and I have no issues backing his stuff to the limit, even if it is just a simple recolour. I think I'm making sense, though there is a haze of NyQuil right now. Maybe Sprouts can translate if I'm too far gone?

Doesn't look like a recolor to me. That's a fresh back and the courts are different from Scarlettes.
