Just saw that TNR and Guardians are now coming through Penguin as well. I wonder if their Guardians are the ones that go to Walmart and such.

Anyone have insight on this?

the guardians are most likely the USPCC printed version. And TNR isnt the only T11 item sold there. I am a penguin guy, and they had Panic, they have crush, and a few others

Thanks Iantense, that is what I figured about the Guardians. As far as TNR i was a bit surprised because it is older and now it has sort of resurfaced over there for like a 2nd coming...ha ha. Oh well. It's all business.

Panics not sold here? Aww. I was actually planning on getting that. Does anyone know why Panics not here anymore?

I saw somewhere JB said that Aaron fisher and another artist asked that their 1-on-1's be removed. Maybe aaron asked that they stop selling panic, or maybe t11's out of stock. Or maybe they just don't want to sell it anymore, for reasons known to them.

Aaron Fishers contract expired with Theory11, and they stopped making Panic because the USPCC realized that it altered the back design of their playing cards. You can still learn and make your own gimmick though I think.

I discussed this with Penguin today. The Guardians they sell currently are in fact the same ones that are in Walmart - the ones that we do not have ability to control quality of. For that reason, it was my personal recommendation that they discontinue sale of those decks and substitute in decks purchased directly from theory11. The quality difference is substantial.

Do the ones sold at walmart have the theory11 name on them? I wouldn't want something of poor quality with my name on it.

I guess laymen really wouldn't be able to tell the difference, and at least it would be good advertising.

They are the same bicycle quality. I have never personally had any problems with tthem.
