This is looking like yet another deck that has one whacky pip on each card.  Tired and lame.  I'm glad I "pre-passed" on this deck.  I liked the concept of the Fulton's Clip Joint deck despite the whacky pips, but it's been downhill since.  They aren't "new tires", they're just "newly retreaded".

You are probably correct! To me, the index looks a bit smaller.

It has been like that since the clip joints. Some of the numbers are slightly different. Go check out the the 3s, 5s and some others that i cannot think now. I was wondering why reviewers did not notice that fact when reviewing as most reviews I saw mentioned nothing about this fact. I might have missed out some though.

It's kinda hard to see clearly, but I also noticed the shape of the pip looked different. Maybe they'll be using arrco pips?

Probably not. They haven't used Arrco pips on any of their decks (as far as I know) and definitely not on any of the decks on the Fulton's decks. I really hope they don't use Arcco pips, I'm not a fan of them.

Here's another pic of that 5!

Not sure where you found that picture but how do we know it is from the Vegas deck and even if it is, it's too hard to tell the size of the pips from such a terrible pic.

They probably won't use Arrco faces, but they have been known for using "Perfect Pips TM" in the past - like on all the Smoke and Mirrors decks.

Looks like its getting close to them announcing the release of these. I just got an email with the whole background of ace fultons casino. I guess it actually was a real place in Vegas. it didn't mention anything about cards though.

what do you guys think we're looking at as far as when they'll be released factoring in all the hype we've been getting lately from Instagram??

Would you mind posting pics of that email? I didn't get the email... maybe it was for people who have memberships? Do you have a membership?

Reading it over again it was actually a notification that they posted the same thing in their blog on their website. Here's the link

I'm really not all that impressed with what I've seen of this deck. You can tell when a distributor is ashamed to show the whole product. It feels like we are getting the NOC deck treatment.

I knew those guns had something to do with the deck. I find the designs pretty nice. I see the hype-machine building already!

I think what you guys saw was an elaborate fictional background story complete with Photoshopped image.  There was never an "Ace Fulton's Casino" in Las Vegas.  I did a little research on old Las Vegas and there's no mention of it anywhere.

I did find that weird that I'd never heard of it seeing as i've been in Vegas my whole life. I just didn't think someone would take the time to fictionalize such a fanciful and elaborate tale...

There is, however, a fultons fish market here in Vegas... haha maybe that's what he's referring to

Marketing, marketing, marketing - it's no different than "the most interesting man in the world" in the Dos Equis beer ads.

The Fulton Fish Market restaurant at the New York New York hotel likely got it's name from the original Fulton Fish Market, on Fulton Street in lower Manhattan.  Chefs and their assistants used to go there and pick out the freshest fish available, all caught within the last day, some only hours old.  A few years ago someone somewhere decided to increase the tourism aspect of the entire South Street Seaport area, and the Fulton Fish Market got moved to the Hunt's Point market in 2005.  At least the new location is a lot more modern - and you can get practically ANYTHING wholesale at Hunt's Point!  That's where the thousands of smaller shops around the city get their supplies from.

If a mod could update the name of this thread, that'd be great.

Aslo, Brad Fulton posted this pic and as you can see, the very top deck is the Fulton's Ace Casino deck or whatever it's called  :P

Actually, there's no need to update anything just yet.  We have clues about the deck, but D&D never came out and said "This deck is called the (something-or-other) deck!"  Until we have a real, verified name, the current title is just fine.

We know it's another deck from D&D, and D&D and Brad Fulton have only talked about Ace Fulton's Casino. I think it makes sense to update the title but hey, you're the one in charge.

I'm not "in charge."  Go ahead, have it changed.  But if D&D pull a De'vo and call it the "Fulton's Fluffy Bunnies and Unicorns deck", you're going to look awfully silly...  :))

I will tell you, the deck looks cool and all... However, marketing or no marketing, I could really do without the back story of uncle Jimmy and Old Vegas... Can you say... Overkill?
