Since 1977, Star Wars has been a pop culture phenomenon. Alongside the release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the 9th and final film in the Skywalker saga, theory11 is proud to present Star Wars: Light Side and Dark Side Playing Cards.

Channel your inner Sith, join the First Order, or maintain order in the galaxy alongside Emperor Palpatine’s Imperial Army. The Dark Side deck features Darth Vader’s lightsaber, the Death Star, and the Empire’s fleet of starships. “You don't know the power of the dark side!”

About The Cards

MADE IN AMERICA The cards themselves are made in the USA - printed on FSC-certified paper derived from sustainable forests, vegetable-based inks, and starch-based laminates.

The Dark Side Box

EMBOSSED AND FOIL STAMPED On the front of the dark side box, look through the window of the Imperial Throne Room, with symbols of the Galactic Empire and First Order on each corner.

Both decks feature the same set of 12 court cards, representing each side. On the dark side, Palpatine is depicted alongside Kylo Ren, Darth Vader, and more.

On the King of Spades, Darth Vader is depicted holding his lightsaber while taking command of his Imperial subordinates. “I find your lack of faith disturbing.”

Across the red back design, it's all about the details - from the Death Star to the First Order, Sith, and Empire insignia. In the center, a repeating pattern of TIE fighters supports Darth Vader's lightsaber on either side.

Spades - Terrorists: Terrorists who dare to oppose us directly. They are extremely dangerous and violent, especially towards innocents. The Rebels call them heroes, but they are Cowards. They attempt to challenge the Order with suicidal frontal attacks which always fail spectacularly. They are foolish, disorganized, and reckless.

Hearts - Anarchists: They accuse our perfect organization of oppression, and refuse to accept the Truth: that our people are happy to work for the Magnificence of our Nation! These dissenters were once our People, but have chosen to betray the Nation. Glorified by the Rebels, hated by their own People, these Anarchists are outlaws without rights or Citizenship.

Clubs - Snakes: These poisonous snakes hide in the shadows, waiting to attack our Valiant officers. Weak but numerous, they are a constant annoyance to the Ministry of Protection and a serious menace to our Nation. All stealthy spies who attempt to destabilize the Order are officially designated "Snakes”. They are cowardly saboteurs, but the Ministry of Protection will soon eradicate them forever.

Diamonds - Liars: Posters, radio broadcasts, hidden messages: Revolutionary Propaganda is a combination of clever misdirection and outright lies. Do not be deceived! Only the Order will give you the Truth. With their education and their ideas they think they're smarter and better than you.

Propaganda Cards: Be wary of these attractive but disingenuous campaigns included in the subversive Revolutio decks. Order Revolutio is the second deck of the Order Series.

Features:

Spades - Ministry of Strength: Our enemies have many faces: they hide everywhere, like sewer rats. They are ugly. They are weak. They HATE us. But the immense Strength of our General will crush them all! The Ministry of Strength manages the immense might of the Unique Army of the Order. Soldiers of the Order, recruited from the youth of the People, fight our enemies with incredible courage.

Hearts - Ministry of Wealth: Blessed be our Tireless Men – stalwart HEARTS of our Nation. Thanks to our Graceful Women, Mothers of our Noble Children. Your labour and sacrifice will make our country beautiful and wealthy. The Ministry of Wealth blesses our Nation with an increase in population, and gives freedom to the People through work.

Clubs - Ministry of Protection: The Order is always watching. We protect our Good People, and we DESTROY our enemies without mercy. The Ministry of Protection is charged with the safety of the People. Their hand is over all the Nation; their all-seeing eye cannot be blinded or obscured. Terrorists and rebels will not escape their fierce punishment.

Diamonds - Ministry of Information: Information is Freedom! The Order tells only the Truth, promptly and always. Remember: staying informed is a Duty of all Good Men. The Ministry of Information provides entertainment and news. They oversee education, communication, and all products of the Order, including the Imperium Deck.

Advertising Cards: All Order decks include aesthetically pleasing advertising campaigns by our Ministry of Information.

Encouraging a virtuous lifestyle and buying the right products is very important for every good citizen.

+++ Citizens are required to carry at least one Order Imperium deck at all times. Those caught in defiance of this law will be prosecuted accordingly. +++

Order Imperium is the first deck of the Order Series.

VHS 1982 is a nostalgic deck that brings back memories of putting electrical tape over your VCR to keep it from blinking all night long and blowing the Nintendo game cartridge out before you start a 4 hour Contra marathon with you big brother.

VHS 1982 is a light-hearted deck that is inspired by the bold designs of the early 80s. The Kings Wild standard court cards get a totally rad upgrade with face-melting holographic foiling on both the front and the back of the cards.

If you are wondering 1982 and February are Jackson's birth year and month!

For an extra level up, the classic VHS cassette back design features a flipbook "Be Kind Rewind" effect.

The Soundboards deck was created to celebrate vintage audio gear like 80s cassette players and gramophones. The back design incorporates major pieces of audio equipment from different eras into one harmonious setup. The design is detailed and easy to stare, finding a balance between simplicity and complexity. The deck’s traditionally reversible and intricate back design, illustrated by Stuart Palm, has held up over the years and has been left largely unchanged in this red edition with the exception of a few small details.

This time the cards are coming from USPCC on their Crushed Premium stock, a welcome change for all card handlers. Limited Edition of 2500 Decks. Every detail from the original Soundboard’s memorable box has been faithfully recreated in this new red edition featuring added structural improvements to enhance the box’s functionality. Fans of the original deck will feel the nostalgia immediately and the deck’s ties to vintage audio gear will get everybody else feeling the nostalgia too. Both the richness of the era it represents and its complex but comfortable design make the Soundboards a deck that’s sure to resonate with all who find it.

In 2011, we released the original Monarchs. They quickly became our best-selling deck, and they ushered in a new standard for luxury playing cards. Soon after, we dressed them in red. Monarchs are back in a new print edition, with a much more vivid, vibrant red box.

Red Monarchs are Made in the USA on FSC-certified paper derived from sustainable forests. Printed on Q1 quality stock with our signature Premium 909 Finish.

We spent time refining the world’s finest deck. It turned out better than we could ever imagine. We treated the back design with a vibrant, dramatic shade of red. For the tuck case, we worked alongside our print team to take an existing soft-touch paper and then darkened the tone while maintaining the vibrance of the red color.

The goal was to make playing cards fit for a king. The world’s finest. Regal. We feel one step closer to accomplishing that mission than ever before. We know you’re going to love them. In stock and available for immediate shipping.
