Review on Theory11 Star Wars Playing Cards - Dark Side Edition (Red): Unleash the Power of the Sith! by Edgardo Ennis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Quality cards, nice design, but no Yoda face card?

These are great decks. The designs on both sides of the cards are fun. (although Palpatine looks like he's dancing like an Egyptian) The foil boxes on the textured design are nice and shiny, with an elegant design based on either the Rebels or the Imperials. I only have two complaints. First, they didn't find a way to put Yoda on the king's card. He is on the ace of spades, in miniature, on the "stick" of spades, but no more. He should be King, reduce Obi-Wan to a Jack, and then kick out any Jacks that are present. (Lando?, Boba Fett?) It's also a disappointing reminder of how few female characters exist in Star Wars when the fourth queen falls victim to Mon Mothma. Ahsoka would be a cool design, but she's only in the show. Damn it. Great cards, good quality, cool design and fun to browse.
