Re: HELLO TIKI: playing cards from NZ. Live on KS
So, this new design is for the 'White Tiki' design.
Is that deck no longer limited to 500 decks? i.e. is the 500 deck limitation for the 'White Tiki' design only in the original tuck, or this tuck too?

Gareth, yes for the "White Tiki", limited to 500 decks but ... 250 +250 tuck boxes (or 200+300).Gareth wrote:So, this new design is for the 'White Tiki' design.

We have just created 4th tuck box for the "Red Tiki". We are trying to lower our original stretch goal. More news tomorrow.

Re: HELLO TIKI: playing cards from NZ. Live on KS
Finally! All 4 tuck boxes will be printed. Inner printing in all tuck boxes unlocked.
W1+W2 for the "White Tiki" Limited Edition deck (250+250 or 200+300) and R1+R2 for the "Red Tiki" (unlimited edition).
More options for our backers but a price increase for us (30-40% ) Not a big deal as we love all 4 designs and we want to print all 4 boxes.
+ new level: 80 decks (4*20). Shipping to US, NZ, AU.
Please visit our Kickstarter page to review all designs/renders and support us.
thanks

Create your own deck of cards first. I can't take ALL your comments seriously. It's your 3rd comment about our "tuck swaps". What's wrong with you?jerichoholic wrote:Tuck swaps are so 2015

Re: HELLO TIKI: playing cards from NZ. Live on KS
jerichoholic should try to create his own deck as his comments about "money grab" is something... 60% of our backers need 1 or 2 decks. As we have 2 styles it is easier to make a decision. It is almost impossible to think about profit in such tiny projects. One day we'll create a project with 500 backers and I hope it will be done this year. it's just impossible to invest HUGE efforts and money into big projects without established brand/style/history. Everything will be ok...))

Re: HELLO TIKI: playing cards from NZ. Live on KS
Tuck swap ?
So purile it is pathetic.
This is the second small project from this Studio, it is a challenge to compare these nice campaigns to something of the expectations and entitlements of an ellusionist or a d&d come t11 issue which victor will slavishly rate pathetically about.
Behind the scenes now, he bags and berates, devaluing himself more than he knows/understands.
Poor form victor .... very poor form.
Again.
But certainly, everything will be OK.

Thanks Bruno!
BTW, we have just finished W2/R2 boxes back design. We'll try to print them sooner than cards as we want to try embossing.

Re: HELLO TIKI: playing cards from NZ. Now shipping.
I received my deck today. I was always been a fan of the art but had openly skeptical about the possible quality coming from a Chinese printer. I have to admit that I was pleasantly surprised . I think these are on par with the cards produced by the EPCC/LPCC printer in Taiwan. I really like the tuck even without embossing and foil. For me, the artwork and the colors are enough and it will really stand out on my display shelves. I now wish I had bought a few more but then one never knows until the product is finished (see Legal Tender for the opposite result). Well done, guys. Now pardon me, I have some crow to eat...

Re: HELLO TIKI: playing cards from NZ. Now shipping.
Have to agree, the decks themselves are good. I wouldn't put them quite on par with EPCC/LPCC, but at least equal with MPC or slightly better (don't have many recent MPC, so hard to be definitive). I little embossing may make the design really stand out, but in terms of cost vs reward, I think the right decision was made.flashcards wrote:I received my deck today.

Re: HELLO TIKI: playing cards from NZ. Now shipping.
Thanks )) MPC is ok ... but they print on a digital press so thin lines and shadows/gradients cannot be printed correctly. Offset is always better and crisper. Another issue with digitally printed cards - color correction. It is harder to reproduce correct colors. I've printed 3-4 prototypes and they are very different. They use bright French paper 305gsm (Diamond/Master finish) with oily surface. Our Classic stock is different and nothing else.
For your information - I've just discovered that Haere Mai deck was printed on a 300gsm paper (long story) and if you compare both decks you'll see a a slight difference in handling.
Our next deck will be printed by USPCC or Cartamundi as we want to try them out. It doesn't mean that we are not going to work with WJP anymore! They are really good! Now I am waiting for samples to test new experimental coating. And I'll prefer to use 300-305gsm paper for our next WJP deck as well as foiling/embossing on tucks. Embossing is not that expensive but this time we didn't want to risk and delay the project. BTW I love how they print tucks ))

Re: HELLO TIKI: playing cards from NZ. Now shipping.
Got new samples from WJP. Master/Diamond finish with new(!) coating... Incredible! They are awesome! It will be very hard for me to decide where to print next decks (as I have two more options only - USPCC and Cartamundi).
Anyway I hope to present my new deck next week and this deck will be printed by USPCC. EB prices - US$6 USA and US$8 INT + $6 flat rate worldwide shipping.
I will definitely print Black Tiki with WJP (September?) Cards and one tuck box will be redesigned. Second tuck will keep W2/R2 style.
p.s. EDIT: they call this new coating "Great White Diamond" The difference - more complicated process to apply and as a result better handling. I (!) think they remove additional moisture during the process...but no comments from the company as they don't want to disclose details.
p.s. OLD projects: I still have about 10 decks each edition (Hello Tiki: W2, R1, R2) and Red+Grey Haere Mai in GW/USA for those who wants to save on postage. Current backers can send me a message through Kickstarter to buy at Kickstarter price (limited to US based stock).
