Gold would look pretty good, And 3 decks isnt that much. There are alot of series that come in 3 decks.
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.

I just knew that they'd be out sooner.  The timing could be better, though.  E has the Black Friday weekend now, this hits on Monday (and the Archangels are out, too - sweet deck).  Then there's Blue Crown's big Tuesday releases.  And has anyone heard "boo" about Blaine's new decks?

Man, I hope these Blaines deck won't be out until August, or I'll have to pass on them. Imagine not being able to pick these up. Would be awfull. And for the Steampunk. These will be a pass too. Only if they lower their shipping costs, which I doubt...

The shipping for domestic orders wasn't so bad, but I wish I had known these two decks (Archangels and this one) were coming out so close together.  I would have ordered them at the same time, maybe save a few bucks in shipping.

Sure, but when you know that overseas, you have to pay more for your shipping than for your decks (6 sample-pack = $32 --> Shipping = a whopping $34:(

With so many new decks coming out just this month, I'm going to pass on these. Plus, the back design looks terrible in silver IMO.

With this latest entry into mass market sales, I think that I can officially declare that the steampunk meme has jumped the shark.  Perhaps by the fall you'll see "steampunk" fashions at Old Navy, and you can probably already get them at Spencer's and Hot Topic...  After that, SEARS...  :))

And the bicycle Hemp as well. 3 decks in 3 weeks. That's a lot!
