Hello everyone,
I received my Monarchs in the mall yesterday. I cannot post any pictures or go too in-depth with the deck but I'd like to share some first impressions with you guys.
The Back design is definitely interesting. Not really what I was expecting but still intriguing. I love the colors, but this is with the gold on the backs; I'll have to reserve judgement on the regular ones until pictures are released. It's obvious that a lot of time, planning, and effort went in to designing these cards.
The Box looks incredible. There where a few pictures up for a while on FaceBook yesterday, and those of you who saw it know what I mean. The detail and embossing on here is far beyond anything I've seen before. Without diving to much into the specifics, the box feels very durable as well.
What really sold me on the Monarchs is the quality. These cards feel fantastic. I haven't broken them in all the way yet so I can't say how the hold up yet, but so far they are very high-quality cards. Just as an example, I used them intensively for over an hour straight yesterday. And when i say intensively I mean flourishes, fans, sleights, shuffles, springs, waterfalls, etc. without setting them down. After nearly two hours of use there was no clumping of any kind. The cards spread and fanned just as well as they did out of the box.
To see a full review along with pictures (and possibly a video?) check out my blog http://robincarey.com at 11 AM EST on 11/11. Come read about them and see what they're like before you decide to buy.
If you have any questions go ahead and ask or PM me and I'll answer as best I can!
