I agree a custom brick box would be pretty cool. But I have to question exactly how much more money Alex would need. 3 or more times as many v6's were printed than the Vortex will be and given that USPCC has worked with D&D in the past would allow me to assume that a much larger run would be required to have a custom brick box for the Vortex. I could be wrong but then I don't see why every new deck on the market would not have a custom designed brick box.

Guys, the reason D&D can afford a custom brick box isn't because they're generous enough to take a huge hit in profits and make it for you guys. It costs quite a bit of money to make them, and since they create 15-20k decks, their cost per deck to produce is less than HALF of what it costs me to print a 5k run.

I'd love the idea of doing metallic inks, Bee stock, custom brick boxes and embossing - but that is something that future decks will have to wait for.

It will be quite a struggle to even make enough money to fund this deck.

Sorry guys. :/

No worries Alex, that is exactly what I had figured. I really doubt there is going to be anyone extremely disappointed because there is no custom brick box. :p

I can think of it now, a awesome looking alien on the top of the brick, only a man could dream though.

Depending on how well this deck does, it may happen on his next one.

They aren't going to do a custom brick box for the first deck. Maybe in future decks we will see it.

Not sure why people would buy more of a deck because the brick box is custom - that seems like a waste of money on my end and something totally useless for you guys that also ends up hiking up the price per deck.

If there is enough interest and our funds allow for it, I'm not one to reject the idea, so we can do a custom box for the second Vortex (which I've already named, and it's hard to not use the name!)

With the next iteration, there are several things I plan on doing to increase their quality as a priority. If we can surpass our $22,000 goal by enough on Kickstarter, I can actually add amazing things to the next deck without raising the consumer costs.

I would much rather see better features on a deck then a brick box. I didn't know it cost that much, and it is a waste if that's the only reason you buy it. I just thought if it was cheap enough, it would be cool and all, but deck features come first.
