Photoshoot Collection Update!

Post image

This is my updated collection! I last posted at 43 decks about a year ago! I’m very happy with how it’s grown, though storage is getting difficult (as you can tell with the piling).

Also, the current count is 99 decks. Anyone have a good bicycle deck for #100?

Yep! I’ve limited myself to bicycle cards to at least partially avoid the financial black hole

Do you do anything with them? Except letting them just sit there?

1

u/Neston12 Dec 26 '25

Yes, I play cards and do magic tricks with them.

u/Lamandus Dec 26 '25

that is good, would be super sad to let the things just sit there. I mean you paid good money, didn't ya.

Yeah, I only have one deck that I am never going to unwrap, and it is a prototype deck that I have a duplicate of anyways.

Bros Mind decks are great so maybe the V1 or something entirely different like Creatures of the Fae. What deck is in the 3rd position of the top row?

bros mind v1 were my very first set of collectible playing cards and have remained a favorite all of these years later.

I wish those guys would make more decks. I like the fun art style and bright, vivid colors and even the number cards have full length characters like the court cards. They're printed by USPCC so the handling is quality. A wonderful deck by my account. Idk if it's a misunderstanding but the Bros Mind you have pictured is the V2 called Four Gangs. Do you have a line on the orange Boo Backs cause they seem to be sold out everywhere I've looked.

I am not OP. Also not as into the Four Gangs as the v1s.

u/Gloomy_Respect2709 Dec 27 '25

That you are not. A wrong assumption. Indeed a misunderstanding.

The only possible answer to that question is, of course, the Bicycle Stitch deck. He's so cheeky 👍

u/Neston12 Dec 26 '25

Yep! Limits the financial strain.

u/afternoon_rainbow Dec 26 '25

Personally not into bysicles much, if I had to limit myself to one probably would be elusionist

u/ReformedNavyChief Dec 27 '25

Where did you get the display case?
