New additions ...

Great additions. I love their 8-bit style. Did you notice that the dice are not traditional, in that opposing sides don't add up to 7?

Very nice collection........it's funny how certain decks just catch your eye, top row, dead center  ;)

Yup, the 4 and question mark are in each other's position. Not too sure why ..

Very nice chach, these were before my KS/Collecting days. I have looked into them since and I really like the artwork. May need to grab a couple from their site.

So far for this week, with a huge huge thank you to the Indiana-Jones-looking playing card supergenious Don Boyer, who is responsible for the most prominent deck in the photo.

You can thank William Kalush for that, actually - he donated it for free and was kind enough to autograph it as well.

Excellent photo brother -- better than even the promo photos done by the big companies!
With this signature I'm following the example set by Fes: There is only ONE letter L in my display name. "Holly" is a female name... and I'm a bearded guy who's into weightlifting. There's nothing feminine about me brother!

Don't hesitate - it's a beautiful deck.  If I'm not mistaken, it was a Lotrek design, made for RSVP Magic in the UK.  The Timeless deck is his as well, from the same company, and another great design.  I'm also partial to the Dark Deco deck from RSVP, but it's not a Lotrek design.

Ha. I had just written over on UC that I really liked the Butterfly deck and considered it one of the more underestimated decks out there.  I didn't know it was a Lotrek design.

Yeah, other decks were a higher priority for me due to their rarity (Tendril etc). Walked into the store, no new decks on display, so I nabbed the Butterfly Deck.

Today was a good day for the collection. Got two packages in, one from USPCC with a few of their new offerings and the other is a deck that I found while shopping for a new 3-day pack for the car.  It's from Maxpedition which makes some high quality packs and tactical equipment.  Cards are full plastic and smell like PVC piping   ???  .  They're a fun deck that will be able to withstand all sorts of abuse and I must say I really like the whimsical courts. I will be keeping a deck in my new bag (which I ended up getting from London Bridge Trading instead of Maxpedition).  If anyone's interested, cards can be bought for $3.99 here: http://www.maxpedition.com/store/pc/Tactical-Field-Deck-All-Weather-Playing-Cards-8p1860.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Very nice haul there Princess Trouble, what do you think of the Creepy deck? I have to say, I liked it much more once I had it in hand.

Picked up the Mechanic VR2 yesterday, clever marking system  ;)

Where did you pick up the Mechanic VR2 Sparkz?
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.

Will do!! Ironically I had picked up the OBO for the Legends v1 as well - gave you the referral for MTS and the Mechanic decks.  Greatly appreciated.

Day off today.  I had a chance to hang some new displays and rearrange some old ones.  Picked up the new displays through Sparkz' discount via CPC.  Thanks again Tony.  Thought I would post a mess of pics for your perusal.  The pics aren't perfect so feel free to ask questions if you can't make out something.  I am aware there is some junk on display, they are more or less placeholders so the cases don't look empty.  Sorry in advance for the double post I'm splitting the pics into two posts.  Enjoy... or ignore.  Thanks.
