Title: (New Deck) Coterie 1902 - 2014?
Post by: Siegismyname on December 02, 2013, 08:16:27 AM
No sign of a name. Just a picture from Coterie's FB page. Will change title as the year progresses

Resembles the Magic Con 2012 deck, don't you think?

Yeah, I was just gonna say at first glance it reminded me of the Magic Con V2 deck.

Yep.

It also looks one way, like the Magic-con V2s.

It should be interesting, though. Can't wait to see more.

It's just a picture, doesn't mean it is ever going to be made.

So far, Coterie's been pretty good about that sort of thing.  It could be a New Year's Day release coming up.  Maybe even Lunar New Year.

It's done, on the way to Hong Kong and China right now...not our design but will be available on Coterie in very early 2014....
The success of Gold Edition Coterie Bee inspired a Bee craze in China, therefore we see a lot of customized Bee decks designs recently from China.

We would have been released more Coterie Bee decks (I probably have mentioned this at some point, but I designed different gaff cards and themes for each edition in Coterie Bee series in 2011)
Unfortunately, USPCC decided not to print Coterie Bee after Gold Edition, so we had to discontinue the series,
but somehow they released an edition of Blue Metallic Bee using the exact tuck case material and nearly the same Blue Coterie Bee card back/tuckcase design that we wanted to use,
kind of a similar situation to CARC's Skull and Bones...

We have some remaining credit at USPCC and decided to use them up for another Coterie deck that is coming in early 2014 as well...after that...hmm...

I can't say that I blame you, after all the hassles and mistakes you've dealt with from them.  USPC is attempting to get as much of the custom market share as it can, while at the same time treating some of the designers paying for their services with either resistance or indifference.  Oh, and there's that whole stealing of ideas thing, too...  One would hope they will become more responsive when more and more designers find suitable alternatives to their services; only time will tell.
