 Hey everybody, welcome back to Magic Orthodoxy. My name is David and this is a deck review. Hey, today we're going to look at the Bumblebee deck designed in collaboration between Oban Jones and Daniel Madison. What is this? Basically it's a deck inspired by Bumblebees and bringing awareness to Bumblebee preservation. It's such a wonderful deck for card aficionados and collectors. The deck looks exactly like a vintage designed deck from the 1800s. 10% of all Bumblebee decks profits will be donated to honey bees everywhere. The front of the tuck case says finest quality Bumblebee local and naturally sweet playing cards. Bees make the whole world sweet. Oban Jones said he designed this deck to appear like a jolly old beekeeper fashioned his own deck of cards. And so what you have here is a little hut in the background that has lazy smoke drifting up a smoke stack. And then down here in the front you have some bee hives and then out pouring out of that you have a bunch of bees. This side says naturally smooth. If you flip it over and turn it around it says what a buzz. The bottom has some ad copy about elutionist.com and the top has some vintage design work and a Bumblebee. The back design of course is the back design of the cards and the tuck flap says bees are beautiful and it has some symbols right there. The top two flaps have little depictions of yellow honeycombs and that is pretty much it for the tuck case. Let's take a look at these cards. These cards are printed from the United States playing card company and they do come on their retail stock. They do have a modern cut and air cushion embossing and if you'd like to learn more about stocks cut or finish you can click the link below on the description. Alright so how does the stock feel? Everybody wants to know how do these cards feel? Let me just say these are incredibly thin cards. Lately elutionist has been making very soft, very pliable, very bendable cards. I would argue that the last four decks I reviewed from Oven Jones, whether they be the Keepers or Roadhouse or the Bumblebees or the Killerbees, they all have the same exact thin compression. So they are asking the United States playing card company to squeeze down to their tightest, flattest ability and they are making incredibly thin cards. So these do measure at incredibly thin. So if you like thin cards, you like cards that are buttery soft, you like cards that come out of the box and they feel like they're already broken in, these are your babies. Or should I say bees? Did you know that a third of the plants you eat have been pollinated by bees? It's true and that's what this Joker tells you. Did you know that the dwindling honey bee is vital as a pollinator? It's true and that is what this Joker tells you. The back design is very soft, very friendly and has a classical look and it does have micro thin borders. There is just a hint of color there in the center with the Bumblebees and I guess it's done in kind of like a honey yellow. And a lot of the work around the edges just looks like flora and fauna and it helps to keep that classical vintage design. With this deck, you're going to get two extra cards. One of them is entitled Beamageddon, kind of play on words for Armageddon and it's about what would happen if the bees suddenly were to vanish off the face of the earth. The second card is a quote from Albert Einstein about bees. The pips and indices on these cards are all very chunky. They have chunky pips and very interesting outlined indices in the corner. So again, Oben was trying to make this look like a vintage deck, something that would have come out a long time ago but would seamlessly fit into your collection. Your beautiful honey bee Ace of Spades is a graphically large that has a design that pushes almost all the way to the borders. In the center there of that large center tip is a honey bee yellow beehive and then you have one enlarged bee kind of floating out. All the court cards also have a very classic look and interestingly enough there is a Bumblebee hidden inside of every court. Well that is it for the Bumblebee deck from Illusionist, Oben Jones and Daniel Madison.
