Please tell me these aren't all convention exclusive?
The convention this year was AWESOME - I loved all the decks that debuted, and of course getting to make so many new friends and reconnect with some old ones. In a couple of cases, I got to finally have face-to-face meetings with people I've worked with via email for 3-5 years! I am without a doubt going to be attending the convention every year that I possibly can.
Here's a little more info for everyone about the Honeybee and White Tally-Ho decks. They will both be launching very soon. You won't have to wait until 2016 for either of these.
The Honeybees are another great piece of work by Randy Butterfield with a custom back design, 2 gaff cards (No ad cards, hurray!), custom jokers, a custom Ace of Spades, a custom tuck, seal, and courts with custom texture and color. The cards are printed on Bee stock and have a traditional cut for all you table faro and gambling demonstration folks.
The White Tally-Ho are the classic Fan and Circle back designs, with inverted Black and White color schemes. For maximum mix/match with classic Tally decks, we kept all faces fully traditional and unaltered. Duplicate jokers, plus a Blank Facer and Double Backer. Again, no ad cards. And where these decks really shine is with the tuck. We used a premium matte white tuck stock and did the design entirely in Black Foil. There is no ink used on the Tally tucks.
Also, if you (or a friend of yours) has a solid following on Instagram and/or YouTube and you want a chance to get your hands on some decks early to review and show off, please PM me or email me kevin (at) penguinmagic.com to discuss.

There will be a new club deck introduced each year - at the moment the plan is to do this for 8 more years making a 10 year series by established modern designers.
We loved meeting you too, Kevin and seeing your presentation along with the other 5. This will be a yearly event at the convention and we are hoping to feature even more decks next year.

Stay tuned!
I love it. It's already been cancelled. I'm sure by year 10 this will turn out to be a Friends or a Seinfeld. Modern designers can go on forever. Who is making the next deck? Randy or Alex?
