Final Week on Kickstarter! Warriors of the Moon Playing Cards

Blue Moon Co. returns on Kickstarter with Warriors of the Moon, a spirit-animal themed playing card collection inspired by Selene, the Greek Goddess of the Moon.

The collection reimagines 12 spirit animals as powerful warriors, with each represented through the court cards. The Spades feature the Lion, Rabbit, and Deer; Diamonds showcase the Panther, Peacock, and Butterfly; Clubs feature the Wolf, Unicorn, and Crab; while Hearts bring together the Whale, Swan, and Owl. Selene herself serves as the inspiration for the Jokers.

The Kickstarter project includes three editions: Signature, Morning Night, and Shadow Blue. The Signature Edition features an innovative book-style tuck box with a magnetic closure, a removable 40mm embossed collector coin, and a sleeve housing the cards. The deck itself features holographic foiling and holographic gilded edges for an eye-catching finish.

The Morning Night and Shadow Blue editions feature their own custom tuck boxes, card backs, Aces, Jokers, courts, and number cards, continuing the celestial and mystical aesthetic throughout.

Collectors can also choose a limited Collector Box Set, containing all three editions plus gilded versions of the Morning Night and Shadow Blue decks. Both gilded editions are limited to just 100 copies each.

Pledge starts at $17 on Kickstarter.

Gold Certificate (Standard Edition) Playing Cards

Vintage. Ornate. Luxurious.

Federal 52 Gold Certificate by Kings Wild Project is the second deck in the original Federal 52 series, inspired by the design language of American banknotes and currency.

The fully custom deck builds on the original Federal 52 artwork, with gold foil added throughout the cards to highlight the intricate illustrations. The custom courts, aces, jokers, and detailed card back all incorporate the metallic treatment, giving the vintage-inspired artwork added depth.

The deck is housed in a minimalist orange tuck box finished with matching orange foil. Printed by the Expert Playing Card Company, Gold Certificate combines classic currency-inspired design with a refined, contemporary presentation.

UUSI Releases the Second Edition of REPUBLIC Playing Cards

I was browsing UUSI's store page and stumbled on this deck! After more than five years since their OG playing card release, the team behind UUSI continues the story of REPUBLIC Playing Cards with a newly released Second Edition.

Named after Republic, Michigan... the home of the UUSI studio and a community with strong Finnish roots, the deck celebrates the Finnish and Nordic folk art traditions that have long influenced UUSI's design work.

The original REPUBLIC deck features a restrained beige and black colour palette, with a seamless card back inspired by traditional Finnish patterns. Custom court cards, Jokers, and the Ace of Spades reinterpret familiar playing card imagery while maintaining the deck's distinctly Nordic character.

The Second Edition is limited to 1,000 decks and retains the minimalist aesthetic and craftsmanship of the original release. Each deck contains 52 playing cards and two Jokers, printed on premium linen-finish playing card stock and housed in a luxurious heavy-paper tuck box featuring an embossed design and custom seal.

Available now for $30 on Uusi.

FULTON Relesases Steamboat Willie Playing Cards

Fulton's Playing Cards has introduced the Steamboat Willie Playing Cards, a nostalgic deck inspired by the iconic 1928 animated short that recently entered the American public domain.

The deck features a striking holographic foil back design housed in a matching holographic foil-embossed tuck box. 

Every court card showcases a different character image drawn from the original Steamboat Willie archives, giving the classic animation a fresh playing card treatment.

The tuck box is crafted from handmade Castle Grey paper produced in England, with naturally pressed textures that give each deck its own unique appearance and tactile feel.

Available for $20 on Fulton's Playing Cards.
