Eclipse Comic Prototype Playing Cards MPC

The number cards of this deck are truly transformational in style, with lots of creativity and humor. The courts feature a one-way design that takes full advantage of the playing card canvas, and depict caricatures involved in amusing scenes and activities. The absence of indices was typical of the era, since these were only popularized in the late 19th century.

These deck also shows evidence of its American influence by the presence of the Joker (depicted as a Jester), which had until this point never been included before in a transformation deck.

A crowdfunded version is being produced with red backs and blue backs (in a higher quality version printed by USPCC), while this prototype has a green backed design, similar to what is shown on the back of the tuck box.

First of all, I came to know transformation decks thanks to PCD, and I've loved them since then. This deck some pretty cool illustrations, however, I've seen better.

My main problem with these is the material, I'm not sure if it's plastic or if it's paper, but anyway, the tuck case is thicker than the standard deck, and it's because each card is thicker.

The general feeling of the deck is not that good if you're used to the Bicycle finish, so you should have this in mind before buying it.

Other than that, the deck is pretty good.

This deck has a great tuck design, but where it really stands apart is the seal. Love the old tax stamp seal it has. Nice back design and the jokers are really cool.
