Nine months? It could only be one thing, they've been developing a set of magic tricks using a baby as a primary prop.

Yeah, those skates were very cool. There's a lot of photography product design on Kickstarter, I just need to buy a decent camera before even bothering. The skates give a nice effect, albeit only on really smooth surfaces.

I've noticed a majority of the kickstarter projects are films, shows and music groups, which is a little annoying. It's not too easy to find newly added product design projects either, which is what I'm most interested in.

$8?  I regularly pay way more than that for non-international shipping
Yeah, which is why I wasn't so deterred this time haha.
Not a fan of situations where I end up paying more for shipping than the product itself, unless it's cheaper than local costs anyway haha.

Ayo! Hey Bolt, it's awesome to see people outside of the immediate magic + card community find us via Kickstarter. Thanks for the kind words.

It's actually been eight days now, with tomorrow being the start of our ninth. Very exciting to reach our goal so quickly, but of course now the goal turns to getting funds for future decks and improving this one.

See you around the boards!

Thanks man :) Also, subliminal pokeball in your profile picture.

Tell us about the other Kickstarter projects you've funded here.

I put some money towards a Minecraft documentary a while back, getting a collectors set with it when they finish making it.

Australia for me

Close enough. I may be one of the only New Zealand backers. International shipping can be enough to deter a lot of people :(

The Conversation Parlor / Re: What got you into collecting?

I'm not a collector, but I can appreciate classy design of things. One of my recent purchases was a Sherlock Holmes Leatherback Classic book from Barnes and Noble. Vortex Deck has that appeal to me.

Has anyone seen the deck of cards that came with some collectors set of Fallout 3? Very cool.

Mix n' Match style.

Fine at university, there's no proxy or anything there. I'm surprised it's blocked at some places but that shows the reach of some filters. I think the keyword blocking is a bit on the ridiculous side though. I had a lot of trouble researching for a video games essay I was writing in college because of this.

Introduce Yourself / BOLT IS HERE

So you probably don't know me.
I've frequented another forum for years, Darkdemon.org, as Bolt, and used to be a frequent animator of Pivot Stickfigure Animator.
So anyway, I'm here because I respect Kickstarter projects, and this is one of the better ones I've seen lately. I've backed for a deck, so there's at least one of these coming over to New Zealand :)
As for magic and tricks etc, I don't have any non-primary school experience. I just like flasher decks of cards.

Very nice to see the project reaching funding so quickly. Has it been a week yet? I know it's been at least 5 days since I backed.
