Definitely curious to know how they compare to other cards.

I’ve played with Kem, Copag, Fournier, Piatnik, Modiano, Dal Negro, Da Vinci, Guild, and Desjgn so will have a decent base to compare against.
Haven’t used Faded Spade, Bicycle Prestige, or Bullets yet.

I got the cards last night and took a few pics.
The box says the cards are their “Duke Series”. Not sure what this means and no clue how many offerings will be a part of this series and whether other series exist.
First impression is that the box is pretty nice. The design on the back of the cards is fairly intricate and well done.
The one major drawback is the pips. I find the swirls make differentiating the spades and clubs harder.
I think the card stock is good. Thickness is average (thicker than Copags/Cartamundi Bravo...comparable to Fournier/Desjgn/Dal Negro Monkey...thinner than DaVinci).
The cards have more texture than Kem/Copag/Cartamundi and it’s very similar to Fournier. Riffling is nice and the cards snap back quite well.
Overall, I think the cards are good. If solid pips are available then I think this deck would be a decent option depending on the price point.
I’m curious to see what the price differential (and minimum quantities) would be to make a semi-custom (backs only) or full custom deck.

Would be interested in something custom... thanks for the review, I agree the club/spade from a distance is a bit confusing so for players opposite end of the dealer or poor of sight could have an issue.. otherwise they look good to me. Glad to hear they handle well and have some texture. I do like the back design as well

But we would need to have an agreed upon group buy design (which might be tough) unless you want hundreds of decks to yourself
Watching with interest. 
Just from the pics posted.
Like the backs but the faces (both font and pip design) leave a lot to be desired. Font is too thin and the pip design would be tough to see across a table. Also the colors look very muted/faded (maybe the pics).
Sounds like the feel/stock may be good if you say they are close to Fournier.

Something PCF-related would make the most sense in this instance, no? I'd leave the actual design details to those more qualified than myself. If they are halfway decent, I'd buy a setup or two. Sounds like they are solid in a lot of areas. Like others, the font and pip design is not ideal for me, but I'd still be interested in owning some. I really like the back design - even though a custom buy would have its own art...

Seems reasonable lol

We already had these made and released lol@BonScot where are you at on the designs?
No no no, you misunderstand. I mean a full custom 52 card deck with scrub donkey artwork. Custom face cards, Ace of spades. The whole shebang.

Ohhhh. I did misunderstand
No worries! When @BonScot is ready, I'm ready to make this group buy happen. I nominate @Josh Kifer to be in charge of receiving and reshipping, because he needs more cards.
........ The fuck man.... I mean... The fuck!
MYAH!
MYAHHH!

Are you guys really doing this, or is this just a new way to torture @Josh Kifer ?
For the record, I am good with either option

I didn’t end up pursuing this because of the relatively high MOQ on semi-customs / full customs.

Here's what they told me just last week :
For Sun-Fly standard design of Lucky Dragon cards, minimum quantities would be one full box of 144 decks.
But for custom cards, minimum quantities should be 2,000 decks per back color.
