Bicycle 2nd Edition Lumberjack Deck

[jordandaaboss]

I can't find the Bicycle 2nd Edition Lumberjack anywhere and see people who have it.  I can find this deck anywhere. I have three of the 1st edition but I can't find the 2nd edition. I have searched online and at stores, but I still can't find it. Where can you buy it?

As far as I am aware, the 2nd edition of Lumberjacks did not fund (after 2 attempts), so I don't think that they were ever made...where did you see that people had these decks?

I was watch a random video of some channel by the name of "The Cardists - Playing Card Reviews" to see some decks I might want to get.
Then at minute 4:15 he pulls out the a prototype 2nd edition deck that he bought.

I believe that you answered your own question...he pulled out a prototype...I just double-checked the Lumberjacks site, which is where, if anywhere, you could pick up a Lumberjacks 2 deck, but to no avail.  Looks like the only way you can get your hands on this deck is to find a prototype.

That is what I am looking for it was just not specified in the original post.

Prototypes are usually made in very small quantities - not more than a handful.  Some would have been kept by the project creator and used for promotional purposes, while others would have been handed to reviewers and other influential people in the card collecting community.  Odds are against there being any left.  They also wouldn't have the same stock and printing process as the production decks would have - they're often a little more cheaply made, and rarely made using an offset press, usually being digitally printed instead.

That is true

Hey jordanaaboss,

Thanks for your interest, but as the fine folks here have pointed out, the 2nd Edition was unable to make into production (with two attempts). That's not to say that there won't be a third time (because there has been a lot of interest in the deck), but at it won't be anytime soon. I have a deck that was recently funded called Eminence which is now in production and will need fulfillment. So my focus right now is getting that deck to its backers.

Just to solidify what Don and Cardfool said, the deck you saw in that video was in fact a prototype. I make those with every deck I design to send to reviewers. Only twelve 2nd Edition prototypes were made and they are all gone

If and when I relaunch the 2nd Edition, you can subscribe here to be notified of the launch!

Thanks,
Vadim
