Just found this on Kickstarter, you may like it.







These are designed with magicians in mind and will be printed USPC with magic finish and bee stock, should be good!

It kind of looks like a unicorn puked on a playing card.

I don't generally hate anything, but I'm not a fan of the back.  I could not picture any grown adult using this at a poker table, nor could I see a magician using it because it looks so gimmicky.  But a flourisher/cardist on the other hand might really enjoy fanning in Technicolor...  For collectors, they look for beauty first.  These just aren't my cup of tea, I'm afraid, especially when factoring in that there's so many new decks and only so much disposable income to go around.

I will say my opinion, might be a bit bias since I was working on a deck with the same theme.

To be honest I don't think you'd catch a flourisher for dead using these. I'm sure most cardists would agree that they wouldn't buy a deck just to fan it. All in all, these cards are in fact... Extremely ugly! Bleh...

No one said you shouldn't.  We're basically in agreement, you realize.
