Dunes Clay Poker Chip Pre-Sale (3 Viewers)

[chase]

Does anyone know if the pinks are bright like the mock up or will they be like the original/ look of the order page?

 

[echoseven]

It should be like the original China Clays, I believe the only color change was updating the 1K to be more like the Majestic Yellow, and adding the new Lime Green $20 chip.

 

[AllinBallin]

Noooooooooooooooooooo

 

[Stackers66]

Really? The bright is so much better.

That's correct.

I didn't see this anywhere in here, but are these staying on the dunes mold? I assume they would, but not sure

I also made this assumption.

Mainly writing just because the thread has been inactive for a while and wanted to keep talking about it - really excited for this one! Any updates on the progress?

I am extremely excited about this one. I imagine the next step is @Apache will show up with some prototypes and proofs, but this is my first PCF group by, so maybe someone more experienced in the way of the CC bulk order can chime in.

In any case, I've been designing labels for a stopgap micro stakes cash set for the Majestics now that all the blank colors are back in stock.

I believe we have reached the "hurry up and wait" stage.

What Mr. Head states is accurate, @power13 . By all means...be excited. You should be. These look to be some really fun chips and have some great, makes-sense updates from the originals! I ordered a 50-person MTT set myself. I dunno if I'll ever host such a thing, but for the price, why not??? All that said, the time has come to embrace the wait. Don't fight it. Enjoy it. Let your excitement simmer, then bubble to a boil until it finally reaches the tipping point in October when you receive that shipping notice. Those last few days until you crack the boxes are the worst...and yet, the best!

Have fun, mate! Looking forward to getting these just like you are...

 

[Pokerdweebz]

I'm trying to ignore the fact that I still have a lot of waiting to do, but getting notifications for this thread is kind of stopping that

 

[Psypher1000]

Completed my 1k chip Indiana Aztar set - Thanks all!!

Congrats on the set completion, mate! Now to expand it While we're waiting, pics?

I got you (y) :thumbsup:

I also didn't put in my signature that I'm 100 chips away (they are currently being harvested) from completing my low stakes/travel cash game set. Excited to post pictures once that is completed.

Edit: See post #15

Here is your update!

We are getting off to a slower than expected start. Since new complex edge spot patterns were added to this set the mold needed to be modified and tested.
This has taken a while but is now ready for production.

Here is the first shot of prototypes. THIS IS NOT THE FINISHED SET.
Only a couple need changes. At first I was told the $1000 chip could only be three colors but they made us a four color chip. I will ask them to lighten up the green and pink spots on the yellow chip.

The next set of prototypes should be the finished set and I will see if they will have labels on those.

 

[bergs]

The spots on the $25 should be lighter as well. No chance of changing the $1 to the authentic spots (if not just the color and type, never mind alignment)?

The $25 chip spot colors are changing to grey.

Can't tell for sure due to lighting, but are all the spots on the $500 chip the same color? Any chance of alternating colors as in the original?

Added some labels to the current version of prototypes for a better visualization.
As Apache said before:"THIS IS NOT THE FINISHED SET"!

^^^ This x100
Changing the spots to the orig dark brown spots would make this chip rack so hard.

These are looking sweet!​

 

[Apache]

OK. I added a note to the factory to make the edge spots on the $1 chip a darker brown. I also asked if they could make them a little thinner.

 

[RowdyRawhide]

I'll second this if possible.these are looking so good @Apache

 

[MD Mike]

I am so glad I have like 1100 of these bad boys coming my way.

You and me both!

 

[Richard Cranium]

Any chance of delivery in 2016, or are we looking more at 2017?

Original estimates were for Apache to take delivery in October so a 2016 arrival to your doorstep is possible.

 

[UndeadViking]

Thank you for the update.

 

[TheBigTater]

OK. I added a note to the factory to make the edge spots on the $1 chip a darker brown. I also asked if they could make them a little thinner.

I see a large order of $1's in my future if these edge spots come out looking close to the originals & with the new inlay commemorative wording removal.
