"This is the first LPCC deck collaboration with the talented artist Nick Vlow. It features a beautiful matte uncoated paper tuck box, with UV accents, and a minimal back design that flourishers and cardists will love.

ONIDA was printed in Taiwan, with our durable and snappy and durable Diamond Finish card stock, and our ultra smooth 'Diamond Cut' edges. Only 2,000 decks were printed." (Legends Playing Card Company)

This deck is part of a 6 deck collection. Uranium 52 is an apocalyptic, nuclear-themed deck. Each deck comes with 56 custom designed card backs and faces and a bespoke, luxury tuck case. The backs of the cards feature a bespoke design inspired by the "Indian-head test pattern" that was widely used during the black and white tv broadcasting era. First introduced in 1939, this screen more recently became more closely associated with an impending apocalypse in popular culture, through television and gaming. Court Cards The court cards take the core premice of court card design and uses nuclear/apocalyptic associated design elements, combined with a style that falls in line with the overall tone of the deck to create unique illustrations tailored to the theme of this deck. The tuck case takes a more clean, minimalist approach in its design. The case uses glossy black foil printed onto a special, luxury stock called "Nuclear Acid". This stock in itself inspired the creation of this deck. It has a very unique colour and texture that isn't commonly seen on card stock. Each tuck case is: Printed on luxury “Nuclear Acid” card stock. Printed using glossy black foil on the outside of the tuck case Full Deck Scan: https://cardscans.piwigo.com/index?/category/128-uranium52
