I will most likely pick up an uncut.

I had a vision of getting it framed similar to this...

Holy crap, I'm jealous! I now wish I had been collecting all these years! Very nice sheets CBJ

Thanks to YOU Nathan and those like ya! Yes hit a milestone, 200 backers. Maybe I shouldn't say this, and please don't ask.... but I've been giving out bonuses for various milestones, so far several have gotten a free deck or something.

Unreal... Unreal.

Hey Cosmo,

I need a bit of clarification... did you get rid of the "rainbow" cards in the corner? is the uncut sheet 56 different one colored cards?

I don't believe those are CBJ's. I'm pretty sure that they are Chin's from Season's playing cards.

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #157 on:** February 24, 2012, 07:35:16 PM »

^^ I second loldudex2's statement. I know for a fact that those are Alex Chin's, creator of the Season's playing cards.

Does that mean I will be able to know how I can get some of the bonuses when we hit 12k?

I think the box looks much nicer with the cutaway of the backs of the cards... Classy and good looking... I'm glad the Joker was removed from the box... Although I'm not overly critical of any artists work, I must say If I had my way the creepy looking Joker would be replaced with a more classic style bicycle Joker... Being this is a true Bicycle 808 Rider Back, it would be nice to have a classic Rainbow style Joker... I'm just saying... Am I alone that this joker looks a little like a reject from a Batman comic???

When I first saw it I thought it was like a vintage joker art from batman :L

Cosmo Solano · « **Reply #160 on:** February 25, 2012, 08:09:47 AM »

Thanks for you're thoughts on the joker, this joker in fact is modeled after the joker from Batman. Its my trademark joker from the effect I have on the market called joker Monte, a brilliant effect created by David Neighbors. my favori te joker has always been the classic arrco joker from way back, so I took my joker and modified it as short of a tribute to the Arrco Joker. (the collar with the bells and the hat). I've always gotten compliments on it, in fact I've been asked to make t shirts with it and stuff, one guy even asked me if he could use it for a tattoo! To me all jokers jesters and clowns are creepy, but then I kinda like creepy.

When I saw it I instantly hought of Arrco, and the Batman joker, so you hit your target right on

I bet its trademarked or something, but even it it isn't it would look way to cheesy on this deck.

hazofhorsham · « **Reply #164 on:** February 25, 2012, 11:02:07 AM »

I was being sarcastic :L I always wanted one of the cards from the films but I think films and other things have their own place... I would never want a batman deck :L

digipunk · « **Reply #165 on:** February 25, 2012, 11:08:59 AM »

Actually several of my friends said this is a variant of the Arrco joker and unfortunately that's why they don't pledge this deck :'( :'(

jmrock · « **Reply #166 on:** February 25, 2012, 12:16:33 PM »

I'm just glad I don't have to look at the joker on the box...

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #167 on:** February 25, 2012, 12:35:31 PM »

Although I like the old box's back design better, I think the new one is almost as good, and I would much rather have that than the joker!

Aaron · « **Reply #168 on:** February 25, 2012, 12:39:21 PM »

The of the boxisn`t very attractive to me. It just doesn`t look good to me.

I agree, but I also think that it's really hard to make a good box for a "rainbow" deck!

hazofhorsham · « **Reply #170 on:** February 25, 2012, 02:16:45 PM »

Why not just have a rainbow riderback as a representation? And did we establish why it was black? To me the box isnt a deal breaker, but I must admit the black box thing is a bit... Throwing off - it's too aggressive.

Agreed! I thought of those two as well. It's different but it doesn't look bad. I think it works really well with this deck

Russell CircleCityCards · « **Reply #172 on:** February 25, 2012, 05:48:40 PM »

I think the standard Bicycle 808 box but in black/grey/white would be awesome. It would be like The Wizard of Oz, startes out black and white (sepia really) and then becomes color.

Still asking....
Are the 'rainbow' cards on the bottom right of the uncut sheet still there?
I see on the Kickstarter page they are but I am not sure if it is up to date.

Ah that's a brilliant idea!! That would look fantastic. I don't think any Bicycle deck has done that yet. It would be very Wizard of Ozish haha. I think many people would love that

Cosmo Solano · « **Reply #174 on:** February 25, 2012, 09:44:17 PM »

I'll be posting the proof of the uncut when I get it sometime this coming week...

the routine that will be on the DVD will use the rainbow card(s) you saw, so at this time there's at least one of the rainbow cards.

I've come up with a couple other routines which could use a double backer, so the gaffs are still being decided.

The art dept. is working on the setting up the colors right now, so I have this weekend to make up my mind about the gaffs.
The gaffs are based on the routines for the DVD.
