  • Pick a card, any card...no, not THAT card!

Hmm...

Mostly standard faces - not necessarily a bad thing if you're making a card worker's deck, but "card worker" and "limited edition" don't really go hand in hand, especially since these decks are clearly targeted to collectors.  Overblown back design - lots and lots of details that add up to a blah pattern, as exciting as a generic Persian-esque rug.  Custom pips - but the spades are nearly identical to the clubs, making them hard to work with.  Not a single spot card to be seen on the project's home page.

This is not on my Christmas wish list.  But it's already 2/3rd funded, so they must be doing SOMETHING right...
