I would say no duplicates because otherwise I can just put 6 Smoke v1 and 6 mirror v1 and there is no point to this.

Do you have those though? You need to have the decks to make the brick haha

This ultimate brick also gives us a glimpse of who you are!! If you like to stick to one deck then hey that's your thing!! Do it that is what truly is YOUR ultimate brick. If you like a combination like me then you mix it up. It's going to depend on the person haha

they're sweet, u'll be happy with them for sure. they're so nice that i wanna get the uncut but since it's 60 plus shipping and im in canada it'll cost over 80-85 bucks for the uncut so i'll pass on it for now. the decks are worth it tho.

More of a vintage brick eh? I'm probably gonna come up with two, one for modern/contemporary decks, and one for my vintage.

Kanped · « **Reply #41 on:** March 06, 2012, 07:24:26 AM »

Lots of Brown Wynns; that's a bit odd, isn't it? I wouldn't have expected them to be so popular but they're great so... yeah, I guess that makes sense.

Knobz, I think you're 'winning' right now.

how do the broken spell playing cards look like ?

Look up "broken spell" on Kickstarter. You'll find the project there that paid for the deck's creation. From there, you'll find a link to Jisuk Cho's website that has images from all 54 faces - each is a different piece of art based on a folk tale/fairy tale from different cultures. The page for each card gives a brief version of the story it's based on.

It's a very hard deck to find, as was his previous deck project. If you ever catch him putting out another deck, pounce on it like your life depended on it! (But tell me first!)

They're very nice cards, bro - works of art! There's probably only a few hundred decks in existence. I only got mine by inquiring with Jisuk Cho - he told me that he'd just placed one up for auction in a fundraiser to help the Japan tsunami victims. My deck, if I remember correctly, was somewhere in the ballpark of $40.

And you PASSED on them while in the KICKSTARTER PHASE? I would give my left testicle to have gotten in on the Kickstarter!

Frost · « **Reply #48 on:** March 06, 2012, 12:49:15 PM »

I saw them in his website right now and i liked them, its to bad i missed out on them i didn't now anything about custom cards at the time and i almost didn't get the vortex deck neither good thing Alex made a second sale for them .

THE Ultimate Brick... 12 Jack Links Jerky WSOP Decks all together in one brick box... hahaha!!! Really I just was getting a kick out of that deck and meant to bid on it, but forgot... I guess someone on here picked it up for the original bid of $7.50 (I happen to think a good score)... Wondering what his top bid was... I would've gone $10 or $11...
