Is there embossing and foil on the tuck box? Custom court cards and pips, or just minimal customization? The pictures don't really show much except for a blurry box and an AoS......Typical bullshit teaser photos.

What are you talking about? These pictures are as clear as it gets! As for the customization, the tuck has foil and embossing. Not sure about the cards.

Fully custom, 100%. You will love the "court" cards!

Thanks for the reply, Russell, I'll be looking forward to these, then.

To the other 2 eagle-eyed posters, I only see two pics so far. The first picture of the tuck box is focused in the center only, the rest is off-focus, just look at the top flap and you can barely make out the letters. The second pic is in focus, but the AoS blocks the box.

You guys murdered the original Heraldry Deck designers just to take their name didn't you?... and you would've gotten away with it, if it wasn't for those damn kids and their mangy dog. :mrgreen:

He murdered himself! No updates, poor pricing, and not contacting USPCC beforehand sounds like suicide to me!

There will be more pics and info tomorrow!

HOPC will be selling it (at an amazing price!), we kept a few to fill out our store, really.

The uncuts look incredible and vibrant, I'm really proud of them.

If you are on the fence about picking up a pair; you should know two things...
1. Wait until you see the courts and all 4 aces, you'll love them!
2. They will probably sell out out this week.

These are awesome! Maybe your best yet, Russell. And that's after starting off pretty damn good :D

The only thing I'm slightly on the fence about is the roman numerals, but I might just need to get used to them.

You have to see them in person, the detail is incredible.
