"Variety box coming tomorrow at noon. Only 250 units available"

Looks pretty sweet.  No Tally Ho Splits Spades, though.  It's possible, though unlikely, that one of those White Lions decks is a purple deck...

It's likely EST, since Blaine's a New Yorker.

There are only 250 available - It's going to be hard for me to pass on this, unless I can come up with like $200 in less than a day. I really like the idea, but I am going to have to harshly pass on this. Expect a price around the $150's.

Anyway, I have no David Blaine decks but would really like them so I hope these aren't too expensive. I mostly want the Red Lions deck but having all of them would be great!

Anyone know what time zone there elease time is in?

How are people suppose to deck decks at like 12pm, half of us are in school or college, the other half probably have 8-hour work days. Ah, I might of got it if I could, but I still won't be. I'll wait and see that Theory11 has to offer with their 11 releases.

Theory 11 has 11 releases coming out?  I think you're mistaken.

I think they have 11 prizes

Maybe being sick isn't too bad after all! I may not go to school because I'm sick... so now I can get the Variety Box!  :P

It's easy to come up with an excuse, but I've been having a clean record ever since.

@CBJ - They should be coming out with 11 release sometime this week. Zach mentioned it on one of this episodes of the Insider. Also they are having a contest with 11 prizes, the prizes that they will release later on. I have put up a thread on this somewhere on these forums.

I might pick up one, although to be honest nothing in there looks enticing other than the Rainbow Lions.

I wish it came with a deck of the original Split Spade Tally-Ho's.

Don't most 9-to-5 jobs and colleges have access to computers and the Internet these days?  Where do you think "Cyber Monday" came from?  And who here thinks "cyber" is sort of a dated term these days?
 ;)


It's worse for me - I work overnight and I'm usually asleep by noon.  But not tomorrow...

Are we SURE there's rainbow decks in there?  There's red White Lions deck boxes, but I can't tell from that photo if there's any rainbow/purple WL decks.

[/quote] I think the rainbow ones are in there. If you look at the picture, the decks laid out on the table, are probably the decks you will get. If so, I see 2 deck boxes that are the Red White Lions boxes. So I would assume that one is the Red deck and the other is the rainbow one

Cyber Monday is great because the sales last all throughout the day, where as this release will only stand for about an hour. Maybe two if we are lucky.

I wonder if he'll release v2's and v3's, hopefully, but maybe not.

There might be a purple one, there might not. I guess we will just have to buy one. It's like the AIP Bottle, we didn't know about the goodies until' we bought one/ he revealed it.
