Just dropped by to post the deck photos, but looks like Justin beat me to it (thanks Justin!)

The decks turned out great; I'm hoping to get a head start on fulfillment in the coming weeks as it will be a pretty major undertaking (currently looking at close to 4,000 orders). Thanks again to everyone who backed the project!

Was surprised to find this deck in my mailbox when I got home today! So anyone waiting on these shouldn't have to wait long.

They are fantastic, the color of some of the face cards isn't as vibrant as it looks in the kickstarter on the whole the colors are more muted on the actual cards. I suspect the difference is partly due to the power of my computers brightness though. Its a very minor complaint though and over all it is a fantastic addition to my collection.

Via Wylie's webshop, this just arrived at my house this past weekend and there is so much to say about how wonderful this deck is!

One aspect that I think was not commented on previously was the design decision to carry through the Aces' artwork as background/watermark to each of their respective suit's number card faces. Of course, we've seen that idea before, but I don't know that it's ever worked so well as it does here. The slightly muted coloration still re-presents the ace in a way that unifies each suit nicely, but also allows the (outstanding) unique pip designs to really sing. And the Aces themselves are also certainly among the most beautiful to appear this year.

I could go on about this one, but it's definitely worth another look if like me you weren't a backer initially, IMO.

Awesome to hear that people are liking their cards! I've been thrilled and a little caught off guard by the overwhelmingly positive response to the deck... and I've already started sketching for the next one :)

All orders received prior to this week are shipped as of today, so if you haven't received yours yet, you will very soon! Here's what the 1-bedroom apartment looked like mid-fulfillment - just over 4500 shipments total, packed and shipped (almost) single-handedly!
