I appreciate on letting us know but personally I wouldn't pay a single dollar for any of their current decks. If they were given stuff away free, I might take a Hellions deck and a Talons deck and wouldn't even bother with the others, even if they were giving them away for free.

I dream of a world where wars are fought only by having dance offs. I also dream that a Finnish playing card designer would exist. The former seems more likely to happend.

Does it mean that their new Red Cohorts for $2 is a quality disaster? What is a reason to dump a new release?

UPD: @Strag, thanks for sharing! Three bricks - $157 plus $20 shipping to NZ.

I ordered one deck for myself - Blue Cohorts as I want to check their E7 stock. All other decks are for my NZ shop :D - all Keepers, all Hellions, Red Knights, Disparos, Confessions, Talons.

They are really good prices, but I already have those that I am interested in, so no real interest to get more. I thought the red cohorts were fine, so not sure why they are going for $2, unless they just want to clear their inventory. Montenzi, I think you will like the blue cohorts. All the issues with their advertising aside, the cards feel good to me, especially given their thickness.

Ok. Order placed - 25/June, shipped - 11/Jul, received in NZ - 26/Aug :lol: :lol: :lol: Two months!

I like the new Slimline stock! It's six cards thinner than Bee and four cards vs. crushed Bee. Very interesting. I still prefer to have an option to print on thick stock.

It's funny that Ellusionist used old thick boxes for Blue Cohorts. Cards are so loose inside!

That was two months ago! :lol: I have just got the parcel.

It's a huge box for such thin cards!

Update: Their new box template for Slimline cards is ok (printed and tested). You should know that stretch marks seen on photos is a part of the template!!! It's not just a quality problem. :cry:
