Ace-King has posted some of these for sale...

It's nice to see a simple basic deck come out among the chaos.

Yeah, it's the same as rider back green. Just an ugly standard box.

Actually there are many colors out there.
Black, orange, pink, Yellow. Really a lot.
But I'm not fan of bicycle, so I have only the standard colors.

We're talking about a basic nearly-inexpensive deck, not a major life investment! Sooner or later, all the fun colors and concepts that USPC wants to put out under their own Bicycle brand will have the funky new boxes. Like it or not, they appear to be here to stay.

I might get two. No major investment, but the actual cards look cool enough, I'm sure.

Post by: Kanped on December 07, 2011, 10:44:17 AM: I think green backs work really well for lots of card tricks (especially for doing tutorials; makes everything nice and clear... maybe not what you want for some routines). They're pretty inexpensive to boot, I have to say I'm in favour but I probably won't be getting any because I have lots of lovely decks already, including a nice green back Gemaco (that actually handles well). If they put out a few more colours, I might get a half-brick of all different colours or something, that'd be nice.

Post by: Lushbob on December 07, 2011, 03:33:55 PM: Isn't this just the same as the normal green rider back deck, it's just in a different box?

Post by: xZEROx on December 07, 2011, 05:04:15 PM: was the green rider back ever printed in KY? i thought all the old box colour series were all printed in OH, and when they moved to KY, they started with this new box design and printed so far the red, blue, fuchsia, turquoise and now green.

someone correct me if i'm wrong.

That sounds pretty feasible to me.
