I love the box for the deck; it is very simple and feels much thicker then the fulton tuck box. The deck faros very well right out of the box face to face. The edges of the deck are also smooth right out of the box (at least the one deck that i opened). Also, the faces are very off white. All the colors on the deck seem to be desaturated compared to a brand new normal deck of circle backs that i also opened up to compare the two.

As for the backs i opened a blue deck and i love the way that it looks. At times it may mess with my eyes, but that doesn't bother me at all.

Of course i will have to play with the deck for a few days to give my opinion on handling and durability. what does everyone else think of the deck?
have you heard the word???

That sounds awesome. I might actually buy some now.



EDIT: You might want to change the title and change it from "Tall Hos" to "Tally-Ho's", although "Tall Hos" made me chuckle ;D

With my order i got 3 of bother colors and 6 blue circle backs. right when i started playing with the u.s. regulations i instantly thought, "damn i shoulda got more of these." but i am trying to stop buying bricks of custom decks and only get a few for my collection. this way i have more for decks like tallys so i can practice without fear of dropping cards or ruining decks.



if anyone would like a side by side to see the difference between the court cards of a regular deck and the u.s. regulations just say so

I am sorry about the quality, i snapped these very quickly with my phone cause im about to go work out. I do feel that they show how much darker and desaturated the colors are however.

the picture of the spread is the U.S. Regulation deck. some of the cards are obviously lighter then others. i dont feel this matters at all but id thought id share :)

Ahhh...now I see it. It isn't a huge difference, but it's nice they put though into it.

Actually these decks don't impress me.
But I guess I gotta get a few because of D&D name.
But not for now.
I don't have any more money.

That's okay. I think I'll get them directly from D&D someday.
I want them to sign the decks.
