Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards
Seems like we have some new Jerry's Nuggets here...
not quite there but the inflation is strong with these now.
For perspective: I bought 2 of'em in Nov'19 for $22 each. Sales since then went nuts...

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
I have wanted to find a Hesslers enhanced version for a while now, but a new version with cold foil is likely coming out this summer

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
What's the difference between the enhanced and the riderback version?

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
Tim, they don't have the cold foil that we are hoping V2 will have but this pic shows how they are superior to the standard red and blue back Hesslers

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
Yeah, that maiden back in the enhanced version is simply superb.
The red and blue decks do have one card in them with this back on it.

Yes, it was that one extra enhanced back in my bicycle deck (and a little research) that put them on my wish list

Oooh may finally get a Hessler's deck. I've always loved the colors on those courts.

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
Thanks for the info, guys. I have the blue riderbacks, and I think I'll be getting a v2 deck, too, if I can; I love four-colour decks.

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
Where’d you got that info from?
EDIT: Nevermind… I was thinking in what a weird world it would be possible to have shite cold foil on an awesome USPCC deck…
Turns out reading comments is to hard for some…

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
So Matt Hessler himself told you specifically that he’ll be printing a third edition of the Hessler’s Enhanced deck with cold foil on them???
Highly unlikely, since I’ve (luckily) never seen a Bicycle deck with cold foil.

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
I spoke to him directly on Instagram regarding the summer timeline, but oops I see now that it is not cold foil. Shame. Metallic inks don't really give me that flashiness I like.Harvonsgard wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2024 7:14 pm I guess its semantics but I would call wrong assumptions by Henry on an instagram post not “from the man himself”.
To be fair, USPCC's cold foil on their bicycle peacock deck is great...

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
Hey, I have stupidly thought I could wait to add the Hesslers to my next Penguin or Vanishing order
BUT they seem to be SOLD OUT everywhere already!
Does anybody know anywhere you can still buy the latest Black Maiden Back (enhanced) Hesslers?

Nope. They're sold out and get listed for high prices on eBay. I've been on the lookout too.

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
The huge Add to Cart button is misleading when Out of Stock is written underneath in tiny font. I don't mind not having the sold out one as much anymore now that we're getting the new one that's coming out.

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
Oh wow, I didn't even realize you were referring to the new one. I didn't expect it to be released already. I contacted Dave who said he'll have some. Will see if it's possible to grab.

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
Both Penguin and Vanishing are showing a "restock" date as June 3rd which is probably the release date. Are you sure the sold out page isn't just a place holder so they could get the page up early?

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
Penguin removed them from my cart as Sold Out
Socal had them listed and now have Sold Out on them
But I hope you're right Shunterino

They look beautiful

Re: Bicycle Hesslers Enhanced playing cards - available now
Thanks - It was just a thing I was playing around with a long while back, seeing what it took to make a deck at MPC - was screwing around with the backs, decided to make a tuck to see what it was like, never made it around to the faces

This was my thinking, too. Somewhere earlier in the thread the release was said to be "in the summer."
