There isnt even much to say about these. The giraffe deck is standard Merz crap, and the Santa back is a complete rip-off and a terrible version of the original santa backs.

Seems really weird to me that the USPCC would print something so similar to a deck they've already released.

I thought USPCC dont allow people to alter the bicycle back. But why Merz can?

To answer the question, this will end when people STOP BUYING THIS GARBAGE.

Pretty simple. If he spends tens of thousands printing decks that no one buys, it will end rather quickly.

Agreed. I don't understand why people spend 50some bucks in auctions for a crappy deck like this one, and then when a great deck hits the market, they complain about being short on money. What is this?

FYI, the new Santa backs are done using the new Maiden back design. They are not changing the Rider back so it is allowed.

Nice catch on that one!


Also, I know it isn't really necessary for me to point out that something doesn't make sense on a Merz deck, but why is the one tree Valentine's themed, when it is a Christmas deck?

Those are hearts.  And Merz67 couldn't design his way out of a paper bag.

They're true to the originals, with the exception that they're based on the Maiden Backs and not the Rider Backs.  It's not a huge difference.


It's the rest of what he messed with that sucks.

I feel the same way. Why he chose to put stupid hats on them though is beyond me.


P.S. Sorry. I accidentally hit the button to lower your fame, when I meant to up vote it because I agreed. Stupid touch screen phones!
