Fair enough, bro!  Moving it back.

EDIT: Forgot - I can't move squat in the LOLAQ!  Alex?  Curt?

The box looks pretty sleek. I think we are moving in a period of simple boxes: NOC, Black Crown, another one recently I can't remember the name of...

The box looks pretty sleek.

As sleek as a brick of mud with a skull stamped on it...

[Joker and the Thief]

This is... Interesting. I'm sure that they won't go down the road of Big Blind Media they're too professional for that...
But skulls from conjuring arts? It's new but I'm sure it's got a back story from way back in magic history.

THIS deck, from CARC? Something doesn't seem right lol
Maybe the cards are completely different from the box?

I think I meant to say slick.

I doubt it. After De'vo, I don't know if people would fall for it again.

WTF is that skull of? Because that is not a human skull.

I'm not sure, but I could've sworn I have seen a similar skull before. But according to this website, it kinda looks like a squirrel skull.

Those are not squirrel teeth.

It looks like someone either doesn't know how to draw human skulls, or it's a deck based around some early human ancestor, though I have never seen early humanoid skulls like that. Usually they have a smaller, more elongated skull, and a jaw that juts out further.

So this is just a silly sketch methinks.

Besides the teeth, it looks like a sloth to me

Sleek or slick - this deck's box is neither!  +1 for Moon!  So far, that's the most accurate description of this box.

Guys - this looks like what it appears to be: a simple, hand-drawn pirate's skull-and-crossbones.  This could be a pirate-themed deck (the gods help us) or meant to evoke something poisonous or otherwise toxic to humans (the second-most common use of a skull-and-crossbones).

[redtank151]

It really really looks like soil people buy from that gardening store, shaped it into a cuboid and stamped the skull and crossbones, although I guess the box lowers your expectations of the cards inside.

[Noobmachine]

It kinda looks like those old poison bottle labels, I'm gonna guess its some vintage styled deck probably with a minimalist design. Kinda 'meh' with me, I'm not a fan of skulls and 'dark' stuff on my cards.

Updated OP.

Then what was the first picture of? Some sort of prototype or what?

I have this gut feeling it will be an extra deck with the purchase of a brick. Like they did with the black and silver acorns.

Either that, or they decided to change the design of the box entirely.

[jmrock]

Well if that's the only way they can get people to buy bricks of cards, then so be it, but I'm not down anymore... They got me with the Silver Acorn, which was a big flop... Not that great and not much interest... What everyone is forgetting is that lightning usually doesn't strike the same place twice... It's so hard to stay relevant... There's a few companies out there that have quite a few hits under their belts, and though I'm probably good for a set, these decks are really mediocre...
