The Major Arcana Deck is set for release on 7/7/17.
Please look forward to it, everyone!
I don't know if this has been asked yet but I was wondering how much the act 6 tarot cards deck is going to cost?
aryll:
Actually, people have asked this before! And I should clear up a common misconception now by stating here that the Act 6 Tarot Project is purely a fan project, and as of right now, it is not in any negotiations to become official merchandise. As a result, we are unable to sell the deck — both for legal reasons, and out of respect for Andrew and What Pumpkin as a whole.
The Major Arcana Tarot deck is going to be posted throughout the day on July 7th (this Friday!), and the Minor Arcana Tarot deck will be posted throughout the day on August 8th. Once all of the cards have been released, we will be releasing a PDF anthology booklet. It will include information about each card, and will also include the high resolution card images, so those who wish to have the cards printed themselves for personal use will be able to do so. This PDF anthology booklet may be available as a reward for a donation to a charity of the entire team’s choosing, but that hasn’t been decided upon yet.
TLDR; The deck won’t cost anything because we can’t sell it, but you will have an opportunity to print the deck yourself later if you so choose.
One more day until the Major Arcana Tarot Deck is released!
We hope you’re all looking forward to it!
