POLLOCK Playing Cards

POLLOCK Brick Box & POLLOCK: Borderless Deck AVAILABLE NOW!!
almost 8 years ago – Fri, Oct 05, 2018 at 07:05:24 PM

Hey Everyone!

We've received many requests since the POLLOCK Decks' campaign launched, and now is the time we try to fufill those them. The three most popular requests have easily been (1) Borderless versions of the Decks, (2) a custom Brick Box and (3) a Limited Deck.

So, Mike and I are proud to reveal and release the POLLOCK Brick Box and the POLLOCK: Borderless Deck (many images and Renders below)!!!

The POLLOCK Brick Box is FREE with any combination of 12 POLLOCK Decks. So anyone in the 12 Artistry, 12 Cardistry or 6 Artistry / 6 Cardistry Brick Tiers or Add-Ons will automatically receive a POLLOCK Brick Box. The Brick Box will be printed on the same premium Matte Paper stock that the Tucks will utilize (same as my Draconian Wight Tuck) AND will also have a clear UV Spot Ink overlay! I've designed a lot of custom Brick Boxes over the years, but this will be my first with UV Spot Ink. Shiny!

The POLLOCK: Borderless Deck is LIMITED to 1,000 Decks, and it will have an Individually Numbered Seal Sticker (the Artistry and Cardistry Decks will each have a 2,000 or higher print run). The design for the Borderless Deck is a new variation utilizing the splatter paintings Mike and I created. I thought the colors of Blue and Green fit nicely with the colors of the original two Decks. Similar to the Brick and other Decks, the Borderless Tuck will be printed on a premium Matte Paper stock and will have a clear UV Spot Ink overlay.

We've added a lot of new Pledge Tiers that include the Borderless Deck in various quantities. AND we've added some new 24 Hour Early Bird Tiers that include the Borderless Deck (we'll close them down this time tomorrow). Because it's a Limited Deck, the POLLOCK: Borderless Deck is NOT available as an Add-On, and the pricing for the Borderless Deck is up to $2.00 higher per Deck than the Artistry and Cardistry Decks (because of the low print run and extra Seal Sticker and Individual Numbering). 

If you need to change to a different Pledge Tier, just click on the BLUE "Manage Your Pledge" Button and change to the new Pledge Tier you are interested in. Please send us a PM if your have any questions or concerns.

In the images below, the Black and White images are the print plates for the Brick and Borderless Tuck's UV Spot Ink overlays. The Black areas will have the shiny UV coating element.

Thanks, Randy and Mike

Surprises COMING SOON!

Hey Everyone,

It's Randy here. So, Mike and I have been working on a couple really cool Stretch Goal items that I think a lot of you will love! We've received a lot of requests for this project, and we're trying to incorporate all feedback into the surprises we're working on.

If all goes well, we should be revealing everything on Thursday!

I also wanted to reconfirm with everyone that we're printing with Expert's far superior Taiwan printer, and NOT the inferior China printer. The printer we are using is the same printer that also prints Decks for Hanson Chien Playing Cards and Legends Playing Cards.

We didn't add these to the KS Project Page, but I thought we should show you all the artwork for the clear UV Spot Ink that will be printed on the premium Matte Tuck stock (same Tuck stock as my recent Draconian Wight Deck). Below are the UV Plates for the Artistry and Cardistry Decks. All of the Black areas will be printed with the shiny UV Spot Ink overlay, and all of the White ares will have the Matte Finish of the Tuck stock.

Also attached is a Business Card that shows an example of a UV Spot Ink printed on a Matte material. It's a very cool printing feature, when used wisely.

I hope you all have a great weekend, and thank you for your support!

Randy

Now that we've passed the 24 hour mark, we wanted to say thanks to everyone! We hit the funding goal in well under 24hrs! The amount of support in such a short time is incredible! We can't thank you enough for making this happen!

We just wanted to make this update short and sweet. After we get a few more days into the campaign, we’ll give a little more in-depth update about the campaign.

That’s all we have for now! Thanks again for making this possible! Cheers, -MW and RB
