Can we just lose control?  :karrit:

This look amazing!!!! I bet they are going to be out on Black Friday...

So any opinions on the deck?

I suppose this are going to be just like the red Gators, extremely limited and a 1 time chance.

In like Flynn on these.  However David Blaine's "coming soon" sometimes takes months.  Hopefully not the case with these.  Fingers crossed for a Black Friday release.

If these are priced like MetalLuxe decks, they're likely to go for no less than $20-25 a pack.  They're pretty sweet-looking, that's for certain.

They are out now at $20/pack, but with additional 20% off for Black Friday.

If you bought a brick, it was only 176 plus shipping with the discount...now that's a great price for Metalluxe!

Why be sad? A lot of people will be able to have these in their hands now. That's a good thing in my opinion, they won't be coveting mine!  ;)

Gorgeous photo Anthony, wow.

My Golden Gatorbacks arrived last night. I haven't spent any time with them at all, aside from four minutes with a tuckbox. I'll get to them later this week, I hope. I think these will be my second favorite Gatorbacks though, I love the Green Gatorbacks just the perfect color for the deck in my opinion. These tucks are great though. Fence sitting folks out there, if these are still available, grab some up! I really don't think you'll be sorry you did.

Not a huge mystery. $100.00 and the set is yours  ;)

Yep, these cards brought me back to collecting from a 1.5 year slumber. Maybe a little pricey for not being a limited run though. Certainly gorgeous. Anyone get their hands on the ABCs?

Starting to get better...have to stay dedicated...can't lose any more cards in the middle of a trick.  Literally, completely lost a card.

  • Charm gets you quite far. Guile gets you the rest.
I have a signed one I am happy to sell if anyone wants (I'm actually looking to let go of my whole set of the gatorbacks if anyone needs a red or green for their collection.) I just wanted the ABC deck
