Lorenzo's Bicycle N° 17 - fulfillment done (except Crown)

Unread post by Mike Ratledge »

Basically a place-holder & conversation starter, but expect to hear (and see) more soon after the Heretic decks get from Miami (yesterday) to port of NY & NJ to Kalamazoo and on to your mailbox.

Thoughts, anyone? (Hammer you are disqualified...)

To start with, I actually really preferred the old tuck, it was cool though with the awesome joker, the new one is a bit boring by comparison.

Otherwise, I'm glad he's making a lot of changes because parts of it did feel v1. It will also be neat to see the comparisons side by side and will enjoy having both. I'm really looking forward to it.

I'm glad I "waited" for these. He said they'll be better designed than the first version and he's right.

No question that v2 will be an excellent improvement!

The design phase for v1 was as quick (honestly much more) than Lorenzo's ever going to spend on a deck, that's a fact.

I might have jumped the gun a bit because Heretic decks just floated out of the port of Miami last night, headed to JAX and on to the port of NY/NJ and then truck (and rail?) to Kalamazoo for fulfillment, but there are a lot of changes still not shown.

Just an "oh, by the way" - I still have about 80 of the CardLauncher promo Deck N°17 available if anyone is interested.

Be carful you might have some of that red creeping over on the top and sides. It seems they want a clear border on the sides with tuck boxes...

Hello!

an update for you guys.
I think I will have to launch in February, not in January.
because...
USPCC is taking more than one month to make a quotation. That is RIDICULOUS.
I am not ready with a short presentation video.
I have a surprise, but it is not finalized (mystery item).
and I want to follow up the Heretic fulfillment

Estimated launch, 17th of February LoL
cheers
Lorenzo

So far i really like what i see. Fully customized with a nice tuck.
I don´t know but there is no need for foil or embossing...it looks great they way the mockup is made up.
As a magician i would love to see a blank face & double back card as gaff cards. :)
I can see me ordering a brick of those, depending on the price tag of course.
Good job Lorenzo :drool: 8-)

I'm not much of a Bicycle fan anymore. :o I'll probably go for unbranded version. These decks would look great embossed. I want a shiny red box.

Another truly amazing deck from Lorenzo! Just take my credit card will you!

BTW... I took some of my Heretic decks and a Brick XI to work and everyone was floored.
