MKULTRA Playing Cards is Happening
(for real this time)
November 26, 2022 - Updated December 09, 2022
UPDATE: They're out now! You can pick some up at [REDACTED] USA. I'm really happy with how they turned out. You can see them in action on the [REDACTED] Instagram.
It may come as a shock to any that know me, but yes, after all this time, MKULTRA Playing Cards are finally going to be real (2.5 years late).
As some background, these cards have been in the design process for 3.5 years now and I have been teasing my friends and family with the announcement of the release on and off since then. At one point after long work on the project, I shunned the idea of printing them and even from doing cardistry. I deleted my accounts, sold a lot of my playing cards, and took a hiatus until further notice. Upon lots of introspection, I realized that this venture could be good for me and the community as a whole (probably not) and is worth pursuing, so I have been working a lot silently to make it happen. I won't be making any other announcements on any platforms that have a chat or reply feature, as I find the dopamine I get from people telling me they're excited for my product to be released only slows my productivity, so this site is the only place for updates, not even any group chat I'm in will hear of anything until the launch is ready.
As of now, the following has occurred:
- The design has been finalized (after 4 distinct versions)
- The design has been approved by USPCC
- Order forms have been completed
- 50% down payment has been submitted
What needs to be done:
- Spread the word
- Giveaway upon print completion (not an ordinary giveaway, be ready)
- Framework of redactedusa.com, styling, and payment processing needs to be worked on
- Legal bs so I can give

A lot has yet to be done for the success of this project, but once this semester of school is complete, it'll be my main focus (right after my wonderful gf of course <3 (you can no longer get mad at me for being busy all the time))
UPDATE (12/09/22): Since I'm rather certain nobody reads this imma just leak stuff here and see if anyone dm's me. First person (US only) to dm me "please would you be so gracious as to give me a free mk, sire" will get a free deck. [CLAIMED]
Here's a proof of the box. Note the embossing on the back. The red waves are also embossed. The flap has text too but it wasn't included in the picture.
