I might pick up one, although to be honest nothing in there looks enticing other than the Rainbow Lions.

I wish it came with a deck of the original Split Spade Tally-Ho's.

Are we SURE there's rainbow decks in there? There's red White Lions deck boxes, but I can't tell from that photo if there's any rainbow/purple WL decks.

I think the rainbow ones are in there. If you look at the picture, the decks laid out on the table, are probably the decks you will get. If so, I see 2 deck boxes that are the Red White Lions boxes. So I would assume that one is the Red deck and the other is the rainbow one

He could have just put another red deck in there so he can balance the order, just the like two blue White Lions. There's basically two of everything (almost). Also, what color is the deck in the middle row on the bottom?

The Red Lions are also called "Rainbow" decks. On the bottom of all the red/purple decks it says "Limited First Edition Rainbow"

It is just a blue deck of split spades in a sepia box.

It wouldn't be the first time something rare, out-of-print or otherwise unavailable was included in a special deal like this. Like, oh, perhaps the Vortex protodecks or something...

Wait so one of the red boxes is really a blue deck with UV sensitive paper?

I don't think that's a bad price at all. I'm definitely getting one.

Evan · « **Reply #37 on:** December 19, 2011, 08:43:34 PM »

I don't own any DB decks and I really want the White Lions (Blue), White Lions (Red), and UV Lions.
So I will probably get it ..... but still not sure.

If I were you and I didn't own any of them and really wanted them.................this is your ultimate chance to finally have all of them! As long as you can afford it. I wouldn't let this one slip by.

Hmmmm. I really really want these, and I've always wanted to own David Blaine decks, and to buy each one individually would cost at least double this. I will try my hardest to get one for $100.

loldudex2 · « **Reply #40 on:** December 19, 2011, 09:05:29 PM »

Wait, I'm so confused.

Does it say blue split spades in sepia boxes? Why?

Evan · « **Reply #41 on:** December 19, 2011, 09:12:56 PM »

So can we just assume that the release is EST?
I really want to know because that could be a deciding factor for some of us.

I would for now. I'd rather it be PST, that way I will e home for the release, but hopefully, if it is EST, I can convince my parents to pick me up a box.

The blue split spades came in blue and sepia boxes. The ones in th sepia boxes were also blue backed.

loldudex2 · « **Reply #44 on:** December 19, 2011, 10:57:18 PM »

Oh, ok. Thanks! I still think its weird how all of these decks are having limited editions.

munro159 · « **Reply #45 on:** December 19, 2011, 11:04:01 PM »

Correct me if I am wrong but apparently they were going to produce a sepia split spades but decided against it. They had printed the tuck cases so they went ahead and filled them with blue. I also think I read somewhere the sepia split spades were meant for overseas markets (why I don't know) so more ended up overseas than in the US.

Back on topic....I hope I can get one of these variety boxes. I have a complete set of the Split Spades (even the prototypes!!!). Really hoping to get the Red Lions. Even though I still believe they will release them in the future...better to be safe than sorry! Though all of these varieties he is releasing (Rainbow, UV back..etc) is getting a little confusing.

I'm a little confused too haha. Not totally sure what the difference is between the two red and two blue white lions in the collection. I'm going to get this as well!! It's a great deal and I'll probably sell a few of the decks that I get that I already have. Should be an intense release.

Just out of curiosity, who is still in school? Isn't it holiday break?

The 2 White Lions (Blue) are the exact same. They're the ones that were released not too long ago.
There are also 2 White Lions (Red). One is the one that you would get in the AIP bottle, and are the same as the blue except for the color difference. The other White Lions (Red) is an Ultraviolet White Lion Decks. They are blue-backed White Lions printed on UV paper in a Rainbow Box.

Also, my school doesnt start winter break until friday $:-\$

I am really looking toward to the proto-decks. Although I am most likely wrong, I believe one of the Blue White Lions is normal, one is UB sensitive, one red one is normal, and one I the rainbow deck, but who knows.

Also, I'm still in school. My break starts this Saturday

Yeah, I am not as interesting in the protodecks as the white lions. I'll probably sell the protodecks if I score a box.

Really? How long is your break?
