Waited patiently and boom! Got my pair of book and deck at 9:02, only to realize.. I was actually too fast and didn’t pay attention while inserting my credit card details :( I bought the standard edition!

Needless to say after my purchase the deluxe was sold out..

:roll: If anyone has a spare deluxe set (LOL) I’d be happy to buy one

Announced two weeks ago on instagram, just found out about them from Sherman when I reached out to see if such things could be made - Limited run of carat cases for the V1/V2 books (includes an insert to make up for the slightly smaller V2 fit)

They will be available through Murphy’s resellers by July

They are historically important depending on your perspective - and anyone with one (especially the V1) is deeply in need of a case.

I have a v1 and two v2’s - so there’s three sold right off the bat :)

Well, it is just a few magnets between you and the book - but for my V1 there is no way I am opening the cover of the case, or the book.

As for unopened cards - I know you open them all, and get only one of each - two things I have never been able to manage :)

There are few things less limited than a Dan & Dave mystery box rare pull it seems - I guess they never really said they didn’t print 10k of each ;)

I think the tuck does make it a must have - just not β€œmust have high price”

A bit of robo magic - for anyone that needs a v2 octopus deck, free for the asking, you pay the shipping - first to ask gets it.
