Not a huge fan of Mentalism but I find Richard Osterlind to be very pleasing to watch

I like these. I love the whole asian culture and asian genes playing cards.
I had a look at the tiers. I noticed they had half a brick for $75 with one slot. I don't get that, cos they have a tier with half a brick for $71 with unlimited slots. What's happened here?!
KS doesn't allow you to change a tier once its set. Most likely he realized at $75 for 6 decks was more expensive per deck than the lower tiers. He probably added the $71 tier, and locked the $75
Not intending to side-track, but Rarebit copper will be out on Black Friday from T11.
I cannot be the only one who finds the whole "let's pretend to be the most badass people who have ever walked the planet" thing beyond lame. Come on. You're selling cards, not making a Hollywood blockbuster. Don't get me wrong, Madison and McKinnon are tremendously talented performers and deserve all of the respect that they get for the skill they have, but I really wish they'd just drop the whole "badass, way cooler than you'll ever be" attitude. Let's just see the cards and let them speak for themselves- as far as I'm concerned, Madison and McKinnon should ditch this whole charade, Corona included.
I dunno... In that first picture, Daniel appears to be holding a pistol in his right hand. That's a little badass...
The image helps sell products, plain and simple. You're tired of it, others are tired of it, but yeah, they're doing it to sell products. "If cool people are using it, maybe I'll be cool if I use it!" It's a fallacy that advertising has been promoting for decades.
I met Daniel and Peter at the Ellusionist event last winter in Brooklyn - he's a pretty down-to-Earth kind of guy, the furthest person from being an egomaniac you're likely to meet.
And remeber - we've had no solid confirmation that it's a deck - or just a deck - that's being advertised here. Could be their new wardrobe line for all we know...
