ZS playing cards

Postby Citizen Simon » Wed Jun 04, 2008 12:55 pm

So, being that doing magic tricks is pretty much how I pass time here in Iraq I spend some time trying to find the best decks of cards for my tricks. In my searches I have found that bicycle will make custom decks of cards for people. So, being the nice guy that I am I have decided to see if Zombie Squad would design a ZS deck of cards instead of breaking copyrights and making a ZS deck as it is.

They run for $20, which might be too much for all you cheep fucks that cant give up less than that for a year membership, but I have special interests. If ZS would make a set of cards and then make them avalible for me to buy in the ZS store that would be the shit!

Very nice.

I was thinking more or less a modified version of the Black Tiger decks that you can get through ellusionist.com and it would look great.

The current cards that I have been playing with (doing a lot of fanning and card manipulation stuff) are the Poker Pro series. They are just slightly tougher cards, but there are pips on all four corners so really there are a few tricks that you can't quite do but still good cards regardless.

I remember CSSwitzer made a set. Check the search, I know there's a thread somewhere about them. I think it was more than a year ago if that's any help.

I'd buy one or two if they're a special run, and we got to make a certain order amount. Might buy more depending on the price.

Edit- to add I think this is a great idea. Even better idea would be a ZS poker set, with chips, a deck, and a case.

I sort of collect playing cards. I'd go for a deck if they were in the $10-$12 range.

100% plastic cards are more expensive, and I dont see anywhere where you can cusomize plastic cards.

Yeah, I would love it if we could use any of the Ellusionist decks. I think I'd take the Shadow Masters deck over black tiger for a ZS deck, as their Jokers are reapers. Meh, and I just like the Shadow Masters deck.

This sounds like a great Idea! i would be interested in a pack.

Could get a load of ZS members to wear dodgy mustaches so Doc will feel like hes still looking at the deck of 52 hes used to out there!

Or more seriously how about an educational deck with each suit having essential items on them: First aid, survival ect...

Since I have a set of playing cards in each BOB I would love to buy some ZS playing cards. If this ever becomes a reality I'm in.

*edit* here is some info on the cost of custom cards.
