I think the price and limit also has something to do with it. These are expensive decks right out of the gate. I'm very interested in checking out the black stock too. My gut feeling is they should be pretty good, I don't think Lotrek would make an attempt at these without having faith in the stock. Time will tell of course.

I would consider the price and limit of this deck comparable to gilded decks. I like gilded decks as much as the next collector but they're getting a bit too standard for me. I liked them b/c they were an added bonus to amazing decks but they've lost their allure with every creator/project doing them. Black stock is different and I would like to see more in the future. I just hope it doesn't become like gilded decks.

Launching in the next few days on KS, probably MPC printer though.

I hope this gets a higher quality treatment than MPC. While MPC has improved quite a bit. This kind of charming screams for a Legends print run.

Natalia is planning on having these delivered by Christmas. MPC is more likely the printer. I think I saw that's it's only going to be a 20 day campaign.

Here ya go. Looking good from the pieces I see already.

I nominate the boardwalk papers brick box. I do t have a pic on hand but I can get one if anyone needs to see it. I really like the deck tuck and the brick box.

Well he'll, why don't we get a group together and get a group discount.

I nominate The Aquila deck Diptych.

Do you recall which deck had the diptych?  I recall that only one of them had it, while the other had an extra joker with a reveal on it: "THE ARTS" instead of "THE MYTH", and the font used also made it look like "7HEARTS".

I wonder if anyone's going to nominate that one for the "reveal card" category?

The Limited Edition deck has a diptych and a QoC with the 5oH in one hand. The standard edition does have the two jokers you mentioned but also has a gaff card, the AoD with the gaff being the three card back.

Starting Dec 5th, The Theory11 Wheel is Back!

WOOT! I love the wheel, I think that was one of thebest promo's last year 

What made it rock was the fact that you didn't have to make a purchase to get a crack at it - you got one free spin per day.  As long as that's still the case, then yes, WOOT indeed!

from what I just saw on the official rules, yes, there will be one free spin daily and each item purchased will add another spin.

I'm not interested in the box at all. It's a good way to force people to buy a box that holds only 6 decks. I'm just gonna wait for them to release just decks.

I can understand that you tried creating a "staple" deck that was affordable and many complained about and that a majority of your fans want LE deck, but why such an extreme? The majority of your decks funded well over 100k with a single print run but you have never had a project with only LE decks. Aren't you cutting your own throat by limiting the amount of funding you could get by not completely limiting the decks? I'm sure you're making plenty with the prices you're charging but having a standard deck, you could fund higher.

Gonna throw my vote in for option A. I know you've said before that most of your fan base wants to ultra limited decks but I for one prefer lower costs to lower quantities.

I got my Sharp decks today. Does anyone know how to learn the marking system? Was I supposed to get an email or discover it for myself?

Its not a marking system. Its a recolor. Email LPCC and they should send you the answer key. I remember reading that it typically takes up to six hours for your eyes to adjust to the discoloring.

Personally "Limited Edition" has become $$$$ in many eyes. There are several people, including companies, that buy all they can get there hands on for resell purposes. The resell market is kinda faltering, IMO, at the moment due to the dozens of designs coming out. People either aren't able or aren't willing pay to the high prices for the moment. This will probably change around mid-February to March when everyone is getting tax returns. I'm willing to bet there will be a surge on decks again.

Artists are trying to make better and better decks, ex. Lotrek's Gold Venexiana. This serves as example of both limited and design. These were a limited run of only 212 decks(200 released) and made with actual Gold foil. These decks cost $100 each and are worth it, IMO not because they're limited but because of how beautiful they are. I was really surprised when they didn't resell for $200-300.

Hello everyone, my name is Brent and I live in Carthage, MS. A year ago I had no idea people collected cards, I mean come on it's cards, you play with them, lose a few, throw them in a drawer or cabinet but you don't collect them. That's what I thought then. Around January of this year(2014) I had backed another kickstarter project (unrelated to cards) and I was browsing different projects when I came upon the bicycle Steel deck. I knew then that I had to have those beautiful cards. That got me to looking through other decks and I was blown away by the amount of artwork and design of decks. That was it, I was hooked and haven't looked back since. I've known about this forum for quite a while but I've mainly been on the United Cardists forum. I decided to participate more here after the 52+ joker convention.
