Awesome job from Jay and AV, and pretty fast shipping to Spain. Also, the bag is a nice addition!

I've had to cut way back on my new purchases so it was nice to have some old Kickstarter projects show up recently:

Image

Top row: Omnia
Middle row: Omnia bonus card, Middle Kingdom black coin, Omnia coin, Middle Kingdom gold coin
Bottow row: Middle Kingdom

The Middle Kingdom coins are really amazing. My crappy picture does not do them justice. The black coin with its raised gold dragon on the front and spade on the back, is just spectacular.

Omnia Antica and Magnifica added to Portfolio 52

Thanks Gio. I haven't had the nerve to open them yet, but judging from the bonus card, they are going to be amazing. :drool: The coin came out beautifully as well. I'm glad you went with the figure on both sides instead of "Omnia" on the back like the first one. Excellent job, as always. :D

PS: Sorry about the lousy cell phone picture. It really does not do your work justice. We need to get Kai to take some of his amazing photos to show the world just how beautiful Omnia is.

My Omnia decks also recently arrived and they look terrific. All in all, I'm very happy with the results (and to boot, they're done early).

The other two Omnias are great but that Magnifica tuck is magnificent. The triangle seal kinda gets in the way of the top view but I don't wanna peel it off yet.

Thank you, guys, I'm very happy about the positive feedbacks for Omnia: The Golden Age :)

I and EPCC did our best, we tried to make the project smooth and fast and awesome. We agree'd from the start to deliver early, but I wasn't sure so I didn't promised :)

We want do Dedalo even better, I can't say anything now, but I saw a preview of the foils and they look incredible :mrgreen:

Been bad with taking pics, but I've gotten in some beautiful decks recently. The Omnia trifecta, ICONs sacred, Now You See Me 2 Monarchs, Devastation, and of course my favorite series, No 17 Le Chat Rouge. Brilliant work from all the creators. I've been wanting to cut back on my purchases, but with decks like these coming out all the time I just can't.

A quick question about my purchace from ebay about 15 minutes ago. Soooo... I just bought an offical, sealed deck of Jurassic Park Playing Cards, printed by USPCC in 1993.

Anyone here that owns one? Are they rare? I have never seen one, and it is printed in 1993 by USPCC, so one would think them to be worth something right?

I can show some pictures once I actually get it, I actually haved it ship for Sherman in California, who will ship it out to me with some other decks sometime in the future, so I won't have it in my hands for some time. I paid 8,90 $ and about 7 $ for shipping, so it wasn't that pricey either. Let me know if anyone knows anything!

I dream of a world where wars are fought only by having dance offs. I also dream that a Finnish playing card designer would exist. The former seems more likely to happend.

I'm fairly certain that I bought one of these back in '93. I don't recall the courts being custom, but I could easily be wrong there. Are they "worth something"? I'd think that they might be worth more to a Jurassic Park collector than to a playing card collector, but not very much to either. YMMV.

6 people on P52 have it, assuming you mean this one - http://www.portfolio52.com/node/2409

As for rare/value, just check ebay sold listings, seems you got a fair price, but so have a number of others recently. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R4 ... &LH_Sold=1

Thanks ecNate and RSLancastr. Damn, I thought it would be worth more than I paid... Oh well, maybe someday if I just keep it sealed :D
