    Pretty please with sugar on the top and laced with whiskey?

    Pretty please with sugar on the top, laced with whiskey, bathed in cream and mixed with liquid caramel?!

    Yesss! The art work was so wicked! I would love to have them!
  • edited December 2009
    I'd love a full set, but only if it contained ALL 19 we've seen throughout the series. Those are, in order of episode:
    The Transformation
    Disease
    The Scientist
    The Victim
    The Lovers
    The Lothario
    The Shivers
    The Mouth
    The Curse
    The Journey
    The Fracture
    Nemesis
    Triumph
    Betrayal
    The 6th Sense
    Justice
    The Healer
    Treachery
    Death

    I guess the Lothario card with Elaine and the Shivers card with Guybrush count as different cards as well, so it's 21.
  • edited December 2009
    I wasn't including the versions of Lothario and Shivers which have "blanks" for where the Guybrush and Elaine figures should go, but if you want to ask for those too, that's fine by me. 21 cards it is, then! :)

    Of course, you all realize that this set would never be a true Monkey Island tarot deck without five death cards in it, right?

    This is evil work, Guybrush...

    Fair enough :)
  • edited December 2009
    I'd buy them for sure. I've been thinking this since chapter 2 came out. They'd be a great souvenir from the series (like those Sam and Max case files).

    I think they need to include a final card, related Voodoolady position and her ambiguity. Could be "The Conspiracy" (between Morgan and VodooLady), or " The Fate", "The Eternal" or simply "The Ambiguity"
  • edited December 2009
    A quick Wikipedia search says there's 22 cards in the "Major Arcana" of modern tarot, so if Telltale wanted to run the 19 cards with 3 "bonus" cards of characters that never got any (Voodoo Lady, Murray, etc?) they'd have a good set!

    (Not that I'd object to 25 or anything...)

    Do it do it do it! And I want the Guybrush and LeChuck figures that Stan is selling in ep4!
  • edited December 2009
    why is there treachery and betrayal?

    and the voodoo lady is on one card. she’s purple glowing on it.

    there is.
    But does not affect the final situation of the Voodoo Lady or....
    there isn't a card that portrays the deal between Morgan and voodooLady(for this I say, "The Conspiracy") :rolleyes:

    i have literally NEVER payed money for game paraphinalia (pre-orders don't count)... always thought it was a waste of money... I promise that if these cards ARE released for us to buy I WILL buy them as quickly as my mouse will click the link...

    Because Treachery was the card tied to LeChuck killing Guybrush and Betrayal was Morgan handing Guybrush over to DeSinge.

    I would love to have those cards, I think the art is purely brilliant :winslow:

    btw
    can i play Poker with that Cards?

    I may be mistake but I think the cards lose their power if you play card games with them or sort them ;)



    Also, I'd pay for the tarot cards!

    I wouldnt complain about Monkey Island Tarot cards if they were real tarot cards, unlike those in the game

    You have missed out, my friend. The Sam and Max case files were fantastic bits of fluff. One even included a napkin!
  • edited December 2009
    I would definitely purchase these as well!
  • edited December 2009
    Oh my goldfish, yes, please!
  • edited December 2009
    I dunno. This could be like the buttons all over again. Did anyone actually buy those? Everyone posted over and over again about how cool they were, then they released them and no one seemed to care.

    If it makes you feel any better, I never thought the buttons were cool. To be fair, I have little use for buttons as I don't really have anything to put them on. I suppose I could cut the pins off the backs and glue them onto magnets for the whiteboard in my room, but...that sounds like work.

    But yeah, the tarot cards would be a much cooler collectible than the buttons.

    Edit: Wow, 600 posts. And I only started posting on here 44 days ago. That makes me feel kind of sad.
  • edited December 2009
    I definitely want a set of Tarot cards, and I don't normally go for the extra merchandise.
  • edited December 2009

    I did. Great for pinning to a messenger bag or tote. Confuses the heck out of the yuppies at the farmer's market! XD
