Yeah this one didn't make the cut sadly. Maybe one day in the future they'll come back to it, but that's not very likely

I think that looks ugly and cheap.
Doesn't sound like D&D theme at all.
Glad they didn't print this.

Ye gods, man!  That D&D concept deck looks like Godzilla ate Disneyland, got an upset stomach and puked in Technicolor all over the cardstock!  It's, er, "interesting", to be sure, but the deck would be insanely distracting to see in action.  Cardists might enjoy the attention (assuming they didn't go blind practicing with them) but I'd have a tough time using those for magic - the spectators' focus would be completely on the cards and not on the performance.  It hurts just thinking of looking at them!

Those D&D decks would probably cost a fortune to produce, due to the immense ammount of colors used.

I think you get these "master-case" boxes if you purchased a dozen sets of these...







But I could be wrong

That first coin from the hydro page listed earlier looks a lot like the back design of the new decks the Blue Crown is releasing, coincidence?

Same designer.... similar designs. I don't think The Blue Crown would sell a coin looking like that. For magic, it would be very suspicious. But its possible!

I don't really think it's for magic, but mostly as like a prized possession. It's the same thing as De'vo's coin!

No coincidence possible, that is the exact same artwork. ::)
Has the blue crown ever sold coins before?

Nope, they've never sold coins. Are you thinking this could be an item they sell?

That would be interesting... Out of all the non-card-related goodies, I gotta say I have a soft spots for coins ::)
It could also be a card guard, seeing how the design is related to a deck.

I bought a set - they're pretty cool, though you'll go crazy if you try playing any solitaire game that uses the normal suit colors...  For magic, they've got a real visual appeal to them.  The rumor is that, in terms of production cost, this was the most expensive deck USPC ever made because of all the colors and ink that were using in their manufacture.

Yeah, I read somewhere that these coins and the new TBC deck were made by the same designer. I spotted the heavy coincidence a while ago with the first playing card pictures on this post, I think.

Some cool King cards I came across a while back





I also looked through this artists page, and stumbled upon some free vectors that were used in some Diavoli decks.  You can see those here:

Pretty cool! I like how it looks kinda old and that adds to the theme. Not a deck I would buy if it was printed, but its still cool
