Bana's Traditional Korean Tarot

I was stalking this since the US release was announced!! 

I can't look at Kickstarter... It's too dangerous... I need the rainbow unicorn tarot, right??

I love the Rainbow Unicorn one unironically, that group makes good decks. 

 

Another person sucked into the Traditional Korean deck, ha!! I'm really looking forward to that one, I hope it's close to press by the time the KS funding completes.

Last year a "Glory to Ukraine" tarot deck was made on Kickstarter which was a Ukrainian cultural RWS Clone. The artwork was created on tablets by the Feldman Sisters when they were spending time in bomb shelters.

The kickstarter ended and the deck is now available on Etsy.

 

The Feldman Sisters are street and graffiti artists in Kyiv. Their bright and surreal murals have been taken from the walls and now have their own deck which is loosely RWS inspired as well.

The kickstarter has 7 days left on it.....

I REALLY don't like that Ukraine one, worthy though it is - but the other is nice.

This one is almost over - it ends today - but I only just saw it and I immediately backed it. The cat in the Lovers cat looks like my old lady that left me just last month, so of course I could not resist. I guess I'm adding yet another cat deck to my collection lol

I was considering this one and ultimately passed. I am dying for her to do a full Twilight Tarot deck; the majors only is so divine.

 

Another to consider, for those into manga and black and white:

UK deck, too!

That B&W manga deck is surprisingly good, although I would of preferred a slightly techno - punk or Outrun / Futuresynth type car instead of the one chosen for the chariot.  Regardless, a nice deck. Thanks for the link.

The Victorian Fairy Tarot by Lunea Weatherstone is funding on KS - it kind of sounds like the KS will be a limited edition (every deck gets a hand numbered certificate of authenticity) but that's just my interpretation.

 

Not for me - I'm not into fairies, really, as charming as the deck may be - but I know it's one of those super hard to find OOP decks, so if anyone has been hunting for it, here's your chance! Doesn't sound like the cards are going to be changed at all, and the guidebook will be even more expansive, so all in all it seems to be a very well put together package.

I have not yet, though unless shipped pretty fast anything coming from Europe is a bit slow for me atm. Looks like he received the decks and books 3-4 weeks ago so is in the process of shipping now. I don't know if he's prioritizing KS over pre-purchase (many KS projects do) in terms of when, or if it's domestic then abroad (which they also do). In that case, I imagine you'll get yours before I do.

 

 

@Niobium RE Fortuna Tenebris: And now I see he has had the decks for ages and is being called out as a scammer - and he isn't answering messages or emails now. What think you ?

I'm still waiting for the PDF booklet that was supposed to be sent to those who bough the Slavic Legends Tarot. 😒 I see they have had time to work on another deck though!

Oops, not Kickstarter though.

I am in fact wondering what's up now; folks helped out with the shipping, soooooo...I guess we can only wait.

Damn - I could have recharged paypal if I'd been on the ball three weeks ago as I didn't back, but bought from his site. I might try anyway..... It seems he hasn't been on line there since November....

Posted

And it is indeed so - past 180 days, so no recharge. I might try asking the actual credit card. I have his email, if you want it.... that came up on paypal !

Posted

DAMN - because he never gave me a specific delivery date, I can't claim this long after I paid.

 

Next time I get suss, I shall; claim before their 120 days is up :classic_dry: Anyone who might have considered buying from his site - DON'T !

Been there. He was VERY cheery when I asked about postage - as I'm in the UK,m he said I wasn't' a problem  but thanks for asking.. I can't post a comment on KS, but for those who are whining about his selling his deck on his own site when backers don't have theirs yet - if someone who backed it would care to point out that it's been up there for sale, with no indication that it was a pre-order, since last October, at least, and people who bought it there have been burned just as they have. I actually have his email. He isn't answering. and I can MESSAGE him on KS - he answered in March - but not since then. Not since he said he had the decks....

 

But I've messaged there too.

They posted something on their FB about the booklet for the Slavic Legends...saying that it would be done in May 2023.  That just came across my feed within the past 48 hrs.  I tried to do a screenshot on my phone so I could post it here but I'm completely inept when it comes to doing that sort of thing.  I only manage phone screenshots by accident.

I emailed them a while ago and they said:

Guide book for the Slavic Legends Tarot isn't finished yet. It is almost done, but still require some translations updates. We are planning to have it finished in Q1 2023.

Re Fortuna Tenebris - I just reported Brulee to Red Hook, as he says it's fully licensed by them, and this all won't be helping their reputation. Maybe they can kick him some. (Maybe he owns Red Hook, of course.... :lol:)

And Q1 2023 has come and gone.  I'm not a fan of FB, I mostly consider it a waste of time but I did follow them.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will reach out to Max and check with him that he will be sending them out soon. I did see that he posted an update today on the kickstarter page: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ddtarot/fortuna-tenebris-tarot-deck/posts/3811786. It sounds like he is assembling them himself by hand, so hopefully that is the case, but we will keep an eye on the situation. 
 
Best,
N*** (from Red Hook)

Mind you - looking at the update - it will be AT LEAST 6 months before we get our decks.... Unless Red Hook bring pressure to bear. What a lunatic. And that update is just about the KS decks; what about people like me who bought on his website...  I imagine there are a lot of us. I just want my deck - I don't CARE about the box and the ?WATERPROOFING?
