Hopefully, they'll stay away from skulls...just personal preference.

Whatever happened to the Karnival Khaos and Karnival Suicide Kings?

I googled Earthtone9 and it turns out that it's a band...

And if you look... Owen (from BigBlind) is on guitar

Well I guess that answers that question. It's a deck for Earthtone9

another wicked design by Sam Hayles

Pretty neat...I'm wondering, though, how the somewhat floral designs on the box are going to match the theme/back design...one can only assume.

Woah. This looks beautiful! I love this design. Will it be more limited than the other karnivals or what?

It shouldn't be considering all the other Karnival decks were not limited, but, hey, you never know. They might have a change of heart because this deck is promoting their band, like the Blink 182 decks.

Khaos: not sure.
Suicide Kings: was supposed to be co-branded with some retailer, but the deal appears to have fallen through - it's on indefinite hold.

I just posted this on the NDR, and will also post it on the topic for the Z-Ray deck:



Owen Packard of Big Blind Media (home of the Karnival decks) was kind enough to pass me a promo code for 15% off orders made by members of the Discourse!  I'm posting it into the NDR now.  Just in time for their two new decks, Bicycle Z-Ray and Bicycle Karnival earthtone9 (that's Owen's band)! They're taking orders now for a 10 December release, and preorders should arrive on or near the 10th as they're shipping out before the official release.




If you check out the website, you can get peeks at the art - Z-Ray has cool looking tattoo art while the Earthtone9 deck has all black face - but still has black spades and clubs!  Take a look, it's pretty cool!

And lest we forget, they've got a fairly awesome selection of magic, too!

And for all of us in the US, you can also find the preorder at BM Poker World.

Why shouldn't you use BBM's website?  Their discount is bigger and they have a shipper here in America.  If they didn't, how could they offer USPS as a shipping option?  There's no US Postal Service in the UK!

If you're put off by all the pricing being in pounds sterling, there's a pulldown in the top right that lets you change pricing to US Dollars and Euros.  If you let PayPal directly debit from your checking account, you won't pay additional currency conversion fees.

If that's not enough to convince you, BBM is charging as of right now $7.83 per deck, while BMPW is charging $9.95, over two bucks more.

[MrMollusk]

Oh, good point.
I didn't know they offered shipping in the US.  Guess that means I could have picked up The Assassins when they were in stock.
