theory11Bicycle Guardian Playing Cards (Black, 3.5 x 2.5-Inch)

As described

this is an awesome deck of cards i love them already its the best cards i have love them if you wount dark but awesome these are the cards

The picture on the screen show the cards saying "Rider Back"The cards I received say playing cards / cartes a jouerIs this not misleading advertisement?

EDIT: Images that I uploaded of how the actual box looks like have disappeared >:/ The pics of the cards also.The item itself is a great item which if I had wanted this version, would have received five stars. However, I'm rating this product low because it was advertised with a misleading title that said "Theory11" but these are NOT the theory11 version of the card box that I wanted. To be clear, these cards are designed by Theory11 and these cards are the official Bicycle Playing Cards manufactured by the United States Playing Card Co. (USPCC). After some research I've found that there seem to be three versions of the Guardians, the USPCC version and Theory11 V1 and V2. Thus all the confusion from myself and the other reviewers. I wish I had known this earlier so I could have made a better decision and not have bought this version of the product. From what I've read from other sites and from the pictures I've seen from the Theory11 website, so far the only difference in the versions seem to be from the box and not the cards themselves. The latest Theory11 box is just better, google their website if you would like to see what I'm talking about, it's more detailed and I'm a really detailed oriented person so I like those little things while some people may not care.-The Box-First off, the theory11 V2 box features embossed, raised titling on the cover and the metallic foil logo emblem on the bottom of the box, the item received did NOT. To be fair, the image the seller had provided showed pretty clearly that it had no embossed, raised titling on the front, so that should have been my first clue. Yet still the image they provide does say "rider back" on the front and "poker" on the top left of the top of the box, when in fact the item received actually says "Cartes A Jouer" which I think means Playing Cards in French and also instead of "Poker" it says "Standard Face" on the top left of the top of the box. The back of the box on regular Bicycle Rider Backs have an image of the back card, these do NOT. I've uploaded an image that shows what it does looks like. The box itself is a made out of that regular slightly thick paper, like most other regular Bicycle playing cards.-The Cards-Honestly I don't really understand what the difference would be in the actual cards of the Rider Backs Vs. these that say "Cartes A Jouer" (playing cards in french?) since I don't have the "Guardian Rider Backs", but I do have the regular Bicycle Rider Backs and comparing those to these, they seem relatively the same. They have that same great construction and slippery feel to them. The only difference is that the sides of the cards (when holding the deck) feels like paper which is good because it gives a really good grip when shuffling or if doing tricks with them I suppose (I wouldn't know, I don't do them.) The sides of the regular rider backs I have have a smooth kind of slippery feel to them but perhaps that's because they're worn out (due to card games), they're dirty from the sides and perhaps the natural oils from the hands also rubbed onto them. Maybe they were also like paper when new but I don't remember because it was long ago. If someone knows please comment. I can't speak on the durability of these cards since I just got them and I wish I knew because the regular rider backs I have are super durable and are still in great condition after many years, so I suppose now only time will tell. Also I've uploaded some pictures and descriptions that shows the box and the cards so for more of my review check those out.I would like to give this product a 1 out of 5 but because the cards themselves are technically still Bicycle Guardians designed by Theory11 I'll give this item a 2 out of 5, and if it had not been for the misinformation I would've given this a 5.

Pros:-Nice Design-Good HandlingCons:- Not the original Theory 11 cards (Box is not stamped like stated in the description)-Handling took a dive after using them for a while

son loves these

Should have read the reviews. Not the theory 11 version as shown.

I waited for this deck and received the other guardians deck.. I thought they would be different because it says "Rider back" in front..
