So it Begins... (5 Viewers)

I put my heart, soul, and countless hours into these chips so I hope everyone loves them as much as I do. Ken is running the ship so I’m sure he will reveal it all soon, but we tried to learn and handle this one differently than those that came before it. I think everyone will notice and appreciate that as it unfolds.

The Cali set is my concerto. Here’s another sneak.

So I assume the spares haven't been sold at $34/chip via pm to the high rollers already this time?
That would be pretty sweet.

So, you mean to tell me that the RPC people could have ordered Tiger Claws after all…. and didn’t?

GPI told the RPC buyer repeatedly that those, along with 814, 3ta14, 8d18 and a few others were no longer offered. Not sure what kind of dark magic Ken threw at them but I’m jealous.

FWIW here were some of the original mock-ups that all got decimated.

Correct. No secret sketchy pricing. Will be a public vendor sale by Ken. I won’t reveal too much, but before rumors swirl further, GPI raised their prices EXPONENTIALLY. On top of that you should see the ABSURD fees they charge for absolutely no reason. On top of that - Ken somehow convinced GPI (and we paid premium to boot) for them to let us give bearclaws, 3tas, and 4ta one final spin. They were already retired, but this was their final rodeo…

Probably the best inlay design out of all the various GBs too. Clean, Simple, but not boring at all.

Did you do the artwork for that too, @JeepologyOffroad?

Yes that was a daunting task I didn’t want at first, but the off forum designer was shitting the bed so I had to rise to the occasion…

The classifieds will be lit in the coming weeks in preparation for this sale

You absolutely killed it on these sets! Well done and congrats!
 
Hopefully one of the Michigan guys will try and buy some. I can't add another set without subtracting a set. I'm guessing I would have to subtract two for these babies.

FWIW, from what little I have seen, this looks to be the best of the NAGB. I like the Big Top chips. At a glance, I think these are even better.

Yes I’ve noticed we often have polar opposite opinions and tastes but I’m not one to battle lol

I haven't noticed. If you have time. Send me a PM with some of your other designs. Now I'm curious lol.

Regardless, I do like the Tiger inlay. The chip colors are great, and you guys still managed a fun spot progression.

Well done to whomever was on the design team.
