It's another awesome theory11 tuck box. The name however is awkward. Hard to believe these are unlimited with Black Artisans still available. Maybe they customized the court cards?

Actually the hint was dropped in the JAQKs thread that these are Full Custom  8)

The tuck box looks amazing, however I'll have to wait and see the rest of the deck first before deciding.

Tucks look pretty nice. I don't need to see any more. I will have a lot less money in my pocket after Friday.

Box looks great and the possibility of a fully custom deck is awesome. They are definitely stuck in a rut lately with their design motifs though. Squint from 10 feet away and I doubt you could tell a blue Monarch, Artisan, Rebel or Medallion apart.

You've seen all four Black Friday releases by now. The year, however, is young!

I don't see it with Rebel or Monarch. Its going to be tough for newer decks moving forward not to be compared to each other. Theory11 likes to bling their tucks out with foil and it looks great. I see Paul's point however with regard to this latest release. I made a similar comparison with Medallion and Artisans earlier.  Let's see the cards!

T11 never disappoints… They offer the nicest lineup of playing cards available… What I like about T11 above all others is that their decks exude class and style… Monarchs, Artisans, Jaqks, Rebels, & now Medallions… Don't forget the Rarebits…  They established and set the bar with the Sentinels and Centurions… Even the Titanium editions of the Bee, Bicycle, & Tally Ho add sophistication to already familiar decks… As always, hats off to T11 for continuing to produce wonderful decks I feel add value to my playing card collection… Happy Thanksgiving everyone… -J.

  • You only go around once - spin hard as you can!
Mo' money, mo' money.  I can foresee that I'm going to be broke before noon on Friday.  Heck, CARC isn't even letting us get through Turkey day: those Legend v2 "Black foil" and "Exquisite" red & blue decks both look nice, and they are reasonably priced.  (and yeah, I know - I'm on the wrong thread, really, but "Let the games begin" (tomorrow)!!!

We will see about that. We don't go in planning additional colors, but we do try to stick with designs that look classy and could potentially work well for aditional color runs in the future. This always depends on how well the deck is received. This deck is actually brown and gold. It looks great (from the photos I have seen), and mine will be to me tomorrow to check out in person for the first time. I am stoked.

Drop by and give us some performance notes, if you would.  I'm sure everyone would love to know, though these days most USPC-made custom decks seem to feel the same - though at least it's a good "the same" rather than a terrible "the same".

Looks like the deck is online a little bit early, but no bulk discount yet: http://store.theory11.com/products/medallion-playing-cards

No pictures of the pips shown so I'm curious as to how they will look like since the deck is full custom.
