The Parlour Royale.

I like it - fits my decor…

Is this a new deck series or a continuation of the existing parlour with some tweaks?

A little bit of both. New back design with hints of previous design. New aces. Redesigned spot cards. Adjusted courts. New indices. New tuck boxes.

Parlour Royale Legacy (gold edition)
Parlour Royals Pearl (white edition)
Parlour Royale Prism (purple holo edition)

All decks will have cold foil on faces and backs.

We are prepared for a modest campaign. Seeing as how that's how things have gone. If the result is somehow spectacular it would be an easy stretch to create another edition. BUT NO PLANS TO.

Your lips say Dynastinaynay, but your eyes say Dynastiyay-yay.

BTW, will his Gentlemanliness be attending the 52+Jokers this year?

You know what happens when Niagara Trips.

Any idea on estimated pricing?

That was the guess but I would have expected one of those editions before the holo. If nothing else because of productions costs.

I thought the goal of this campaign was to make the other color editions that successor and tempest had but parlour didn’t, which would be the white, gold and holo. It would defeat the purpose if we ended up with 2 black or dynastine editions and no holo.

I’m definitely in, this is looking great! Glad your doing more than just a recolor, I’m looking forward to the campaign!

I hadn't realized this was the plan, but that makes perfect sense, and me likey. Given how awesome the White and Gold Successor decks were (and I have to assume the prism deck was, as well, but I was unable to pick one up), this should be most excellent.

In in in!

The Parlour Royale.

Glad you chose this title over The Parlour Quarter-Pounder...

Good stuff. Time to get me some Parlour decks. Always loved the deck but Cartamundi killed it for me.

Are you trying to make Omar happy

My happiness is priority numero uno. If my happiness and Omar's align though I'll take it. Joy is the only thing that multiplies when shared .

But looking sick

Boy does he work quick.

Looks like we have a new odd fellow coming as well!

Lorenzo posted those on his patreon as well.

Of those the ivory appears to have come out the best.

Really liking that purple card back variant! That Ace design is striking too.

I love Lorenzo but these are still not a back I 'must' have - I am a real backman (excuse AFL football pun)
The writing on them makes them even less so than the originals
That AoS however is something special

Here is the link to the ORIGINAL parlours for those wishing to make comparisons

I can't say I am that thrilled by the colours. I understand the choices of course to match Omar's other works.

The backs are heavy TGW branding as to be expected. Can't say I love the names, my eyes are drawn to and distracted by them. I also find the Nixie tubes almost completely obscured which is unfortunate (I'm a big Nixie tube fan). The AOS looks good and I like the fat owl joker.

Not sure I am going to get more than one copy or even one but time will tell.
