Any idea what has changed/if anything with them Jon?

 

[Jack Webster]

sounds sweet im going to get my hands on them ASAP

 

[EugeneSoh]

They're already pretty nice, I doubt they'd change much card-wise.

Anyone have anything on the " hidden Design"?

 

[Camel]

I like the new design more. Now the D's camouflage in better with the design for those who thought the D's ruined them. I personally didn't mind the D's but I don't want to make this an argument so I won't type anymore about them. I love the feel of these cards and they are very close to if not my favorites

 

[copperfield 14]

I'll be getting some

 

[praetoritevong]

Yeah, ditto. I didn't mind the D's at all but they're camouflaged more into the design by a new centre swirl which is cool too. I think I'll keep a pair of the First Eds. just for good measure. Still love the design, always have.

The card box has changed slightly also. Look at the bottom of the Smoke box in the T11 photo. There's new text to the left, "Smoke & Mirrors" and something underneath - anyone see what that reads? The old one just has the Smoke or Mirror word to the right as in the photo.

If you mind the D's on the back, you'll probably freak out to see a naked baby on Bicycle Playing Cards.

Wow, I never noticed that fact about the arguments of the D's on the backs.

 

[praetoritevong]

Incidentally: Hands up who has had spectators ask: "What do those D's stand for on the backs of your cards?" during a performance? Hands up those who also complained about the Wynn logo being on the back of the Brown Wynn's?

 

[FatalAce]

I read at Dananddave.com that these are limited too...Hmm...

 

[ninja]

i wonder if they will be more expensive due to the hidden something in it or something.

maybe them rigged the deck a bunch like a marked deck or gaffs hidden in the artwork or something that would be sick!

The back design on the 2nd editions is the same back design found on the box of the first editions.

 

[chris311]

just to clarify: the center part of the 1st edition box is the new part of the back design on the 2nd editions.

yeah at school i bought out some bikes (they had never seen any) i they thought it looked very uncomfortable for the baby

 

[holo]

I like the designs more too.
