When you don't have confidence in a product, make it ultra limited!

I'm glad recolors aren't as prominent as they seem to have been in years past, but if the market is showing an interest in these, then I can't dispute that.

I think its a matter of knowing your audience. Is there room for another full release of a product, or perhaps room for a special edition?

I’m not terribly good at art or business - but that does seem as wise a use of IP as any

I would take the white one if someone gifted it to me. Not being derogatory here, just saying I would house it in my collection but no longer would I pay for it to take up some of my precious remaining space.

Everyone using ultra limited or some other sort of childish superlative in a non-satirical or ironic way loses my immediate attention and kills all my potential desire to purchase a product.
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

Totally agree. Recolor and not making something new always the worst you can do in making cards
