Ah damn, I was hoping for the red blue inversion of the first decks back, but still count me in for one.

Most were ad cards but I had to sacrifice a few jokers here and there to get the end result.

That would be the A Bandit deck. Bit quirky with some custom courts and a nice back.

I actually quite like what you've done with the pips, but the back design is a bit mental. I would prefer it a bit toned down, would like to see more.

In terms of playing cards  I wouldn't think there's too many truly rare decks. Something like the pre release monarchs with gold ink on the backs, of which around 144 were made is what I'd consider rare.  I agree with sher that there's a distinction between rare and limited to be made, you have to consider that there are some limited edition  decks, for example Jackson robinsons Sherlock ones, which are still quite easy to get hold of if you have the money. Rare decks are ones that wouldn't be commonly available/ would be hard to find. For me personally that is what makes something rare.

I thought the back design looked a lot like the sultan republic no. 2 deck, but that might just be me.

Are there multiple bricks available? I wouldn't mind grabbing one.

Thanks for the info Don, knowledgeable as always.

Have you done a mock up of a ten of any suit. I think that might be an issue when it comes to fitting both numerals inside the suit. Do you have any plans to fill the large blank space in the centre of all the spot cards, I personally feel there just needs to be something holding it together.

Don although it has a slightly different tuck the cards are virtually identical with the exception of a 90th anniversary ad card. As far as I can tell it's the same paper.

Jackson posted a pic of the tuck so here it is for you guys.

Is that exclusively for 808 members? Or will they eventually be released to the public?
