And you should have corrected me that the pronunciation of Zenneth's surname is Kok (in Cantonese) not Hao (in Mandarin) >:(

Lol. Wait did I ever mention I speak Cantonese too? o.O
But well you're not wrong, it is pronounced Hao in Chinese.

Anyway, just so that my post isn't completely irrelevant to the topic, I'll put together my brick.
Cause I'm studying abroad, I don't actually have most of these decks with me, so it'll just be a list. Modern/contemporary brick first, I'll think of my vintage brick later.

- Bicycle Garden Black
- Bicycle Garden White
- Bicycle Black Ghost 1st Edition
- Bicycle White Centurion
- Bicycle Blaine prototype Hypnotic deck White/Red
- Bicycle Blaine prototype Hypnotic deck Red/White
- Bicycle Grand Opening
- Bicycle Tall Stacks 1992
- Bicycle Tall Stacks 1995
- Bicycle Pink Cupid Test Deck
- Bicycle Berry Cupid Test Deck
- Bicycle New Fan Back (White)

It was hard to me to select 12 from my collection, several strong candidates that didn't make the list:
- Gold Arcane
- LTD.
- Bicycle 1984 Los Angeles Olympics Set (Red/Blue)
- Bicycle Santa Set (Red/Green)
- Bicycle Pilipinas
- Bicycle BAPE
- D&D S&M V1-3
- MSM Moth/Myth

Nice set of decks there - looking forward to seeing the vintage brick.


Have you opened a pack of Cage Gardens?  I've heard alternating good and bad comments about them.  What would be your assessment?

I would have if its value isn't in the hundreds. I too have heard talks of both sides, but I really can't say much even if I opened it. I don't do flourishes or perform magics so I don't have much of a chance to handle my decks. Finishes and stocks really aren't what I'm concerned about when it comes to adding on to my collection, it's more of the designs (and whether it's Bicycle branded).

Sorry I wasn't of much help. Maybe someone else here who has opened a deck would inform us of more useful information.

@xZEROx
Is there something visual about the Blaine Hypnotic deck you really like, or is it a rarity thing?

Like CBJ, it's the rarity. Most people could've gotten the Decoder (Black) and Deception (Blue) decks from the DB variety box. However these two aren't available for the market, at least not yet.

Should I make a thread for Your Dream Brick? I think that would be cool to see everyones responses even though they will Jerrys, Black Ghost, and White Cents.  :P

That could be a cool topic but I feel that many of the responses would be the same. I can't see it being to interesting

I'd have Jerry's but not BGV1 or White Sents.  I guess you need to imagine that the decks are worthless otherwise everyone just lists impossibly expensive ones (if you don't like 'em, sell 'em!)

Oops, forgot to post mine.
There's a few duplicates but I'd rather have more of my favorites than a lot of different decks I don't like as much. ::)

Derp.  I was thinking 'Sentinels' instead of 'Centurions'.  Ah well; I wouldn't have either.

White Sentinels? I'd love to see that.

Umm... sentinels are already white... Maybe Black Sentinels would be cool.

Here is mine. I am aware of the fact that I only have 11 decks, but I'll keep it that way (my sign brick box kinda counts as being 1 deck).
Try to guess (hint, I have no duplicates, and all decks are sealed).
Thx,
Nathan :D
PS: To make it more difficult I reversed the image.
Hehe :D

People say nothing's impossible, but I do nothing everyday.

Today I found something that reminded me of you. But don't worry I flushed and everything went back to normal.

Almost everything so far is correct. The Split Spades Lions' colors are wrong though. I wish I had a red one...

- Bee RJRTC RED
- Bee RJRTC Blue
?
?
- Jack Cellars
- Black Crown
- Black Bee Stingers
- Black Split Spades
- DB deck (guess the color and type) <---- HINT: I got it from the March Deck of the Month Club
- S&M v5
- S&M v6

If you need a hint for the two ??s, just tell me. I have two hints for each.

Yup, you got it.
That's totally right. And its a blue and 1 black Split Spades! I think we should make a thread called the "Mystery Brick" where we have to guess the decks. That would be real fun!
