I have added MANY DECKS so far this week...

Also, to keep post #1 from growing to gargantuan size, I'll post released decks in individual posts here as they come out instead of there.

Almost 900 views already? Good job making one of the fastest most-popular threads on the forums Don.

Thanks, bro!

Adding two more decks to the "released" list:

Bicycle Alzheimer's Association released July 31 - LINK

David Blaine's White Lions Series B blue released about twenty minutes ago - technically, it, too was released while it was still July 31 because the sales page went live about ten minutes early. - LINK

Still awaiting word on the White Lions Black Label deck - same deck with silver metallic ink on the back. Same topic as the Series B, above.

EDIT: Adding new info on Bicycle Coffin Fodder - it's a Diavoli deck by Noah Whippie. Info courtesy of CBJ

2ND EDIT: I just updated the hell out of that first post - there's linkage all over da place! Introducing - links to the people/companies making these cool decks we go crazy for.

Don Boyer · « **Reply #378 on:** August 04, 2012, 05:40:43 AM »

Added new topics for:

Bicycle Transducer Night Sakura
Bicycle Green Dragon
Bicycle White Tiger

Links are available in the first post. (Or will be, in a few minutes!)

Don Boyer · « **Reply #379 on:** August 06, 2012, 06:45:44 AM »

A quick update on the active Kickstarter projects.

Galaxy Cards ends Saturday and is less than $500 short of its goal. It's a near certainty.

Genesis crossed the threshold and closes Sunday - in addition to being nearly out of decks on pre-sale, so if you want them, hurry!

The Great Lazarus deck isn't doing quite as well - it needs a bit over $1,400 by the same date, Sunday. Could still make it, but it will be close.

The Creepy Doll deck stands a far worse chance. The project closes Thursday next week. The goal is $7,900. The funds raised so far: only $80 from four backers. And get this - I didn't even realize it at the time, but in addition to the creepy photos of dolls on the front, the backs actually have DIFFERENT EXPRESSIONS on them, making them unique! Not the biggest feature I look for in a deck of cards... Prognosis: don't hold you breath...

Thanks for this post, Don, it's very interesting, and I'm glad you've been able to continue CBJ's work.

Don Boyer · « **Reply #381 on:** August 06, 2012, 08:07:46 PM »

Bicycle Transducer Night Sakura is no longer in pre-order - BMPokerWorld has them in stock.

Another deck off the list!

Also, Galaxy Cards is just barely over the funding threshold. Congratulations to AlieN InK!

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #382 on:** August 07, 2012, 12:28:02 AM »

Congratulations Galaxy Cards! Now I hope you won't have too many credit card failures so you can succeed!

vmagic · « **Reply #383 on:** August 10, 2012, 07:28:45 AM »

Just a quick note, the decks from Illusions Defined, which are the Defined Decks and the different colors of Maiden Backs are cancelled because they didn't get enough people buying them. However as far as I know the Yellow Standards are still coming.

And as I mentioned in another thread, a new deck is coming from Kayne Magic called the Compass, may want to add that to the list. Kickstarter starts October 8.

Don Boyer · « **Reply #384 on:** August 11, 2012, 02:04:34 AM »

VM, thanks for the news. I was under the impression that the Defined decks were already in release. Oh, well; been wrong before, will be wrong again...

Hornet Playing Cards are now in release.

I'm adding Pr1me Sketch Edition to the pending release list.

I'll be tweaking it a little here and there, making sure all my ducks are in a row...

EDIT: now the Oriental deck is out as well!

VM: can you clue the rest of us in on who or what Kanye Magic is?

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #385 on:** August 11, 2012, 10:05:14 AM »

I don't know who he is other than a magician, but here is his facebook page:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Kayne-Magic/181545671959642

He had a contest a little while ago as well.

If you'd drop that information in the topic for the deck, I'd appreciate it.

Adding Bicycle charity deck for the Humane Society of the United States. (Thank you to CBJ for the information.)

Bicycle Faith is now on sale at AceKing - remember we have a discount listed for him.

The Magic Castle, in conjunction with the Magic Apple, is offering limited edition 2012 versions of their deck - now made by USPC, with an all-new back design that's far more attractive-looking.

Thanks to 52cartes.wordpress.com for the info.

This weekend:
Two successes at KS: Genesis and Galaxy Cards.
One failure: The Great Lazarus deck

Don Boyer · « **Reply #388 on:** September 04, 2012, 10:14:07 AM »

I still have a few discounts to add, but the list is pretty much updated. I leave for two weeks and the card world has an epic shift...

Don Boyer · « **Reply #389 on:** September 05, 2012, 02:59:12 AM »

Two KS updates.

Fixed an oversight - "Quicksilver" is live, funded and ends in two weeks.

New launch - Bent Castle's "Deck of the Extraordinary Voyages" went live yesterday. It's steampunk, but slanted to Jules Verne specifically rather than the genre as a whole, making it a bit more unique.

Don Boyer · « **Reply #390 on:** September 06, 2012, 02:10:02 PM »

Made some tweaks to the report.

Was going to add the Bicycle Zombie deck, but Wingra Direct is already selling it for $3.99 a pack.

Hey Don!

Because some Kickstarter decks had already been funded and some deck are in release, do you think you could remove them from the list?

Which ones are in release? I leave funded decks up until the decks get into people's hands. To my knowledge (as imperfect as that can be) none of the listed KS decks are in release yet.

Vända (Crimson Edition): KS begins Sunday 09 Sept!

Don Boyer · « **Reply #394 on:** September 10, 2012, 01:59:55 AM »

Added Vanda Crimson to the active KS projects and added two new upcoming decks from Ellusionist.

Don Boyer · « **Reply #395 on:** September 11, 2012, 04:29:47 AM »

Deck of Extraordinary Voiages is now funded at KS, and there's still time to get in on the action.

Removing the Ellusionist "Red Scare" decks!

Closing this topic, reopening it with the chart in a new one. Why, you ask? I want the new simplified URL to read /new-deck-report/ instead of /new-deck-report-updated-01-august-2012/ and I don't know that the URLs can be edited once they've been created.

Looking forward to seeing everyone on the new topic!

The cut-n-paste process of moving the chart went FUBAR. I've just manually fixed it.

For those who didn't see it on the old topic, the deck mentioned above has hit its funding and has roughly four weeks to go, so this is a good time to jump in and help Bent Castle/Ben Crenshaw make some OVERFUNDING goals...

I've also removed the Ellusionist "Red Scare" decks - yes, Red Artifice v.2 and Red Arcane are merely rumors and a Photoshopped image. Though perhaps Ellusionist, known for at least attempting to make their customers happy (when it can help them rake in the big bucks), will take note.

I moved the New Deck Report topic to here so I might present you with the simplified URL for this topic:

aethercards.com/discourse/playing-card-plethora/the-new-deck-report

The NDR will be the happy, smiling playpen of information it's been up to now, but with a neater and easier-to-remember web page address. You could practically type it from memory, if you have a decent-to-good memory, unlike me...
