We just received the Orbit V6 and we LOVE it! Designed by Daniel Schneider, the deck combines the best design elements of the V4/V5 and features space, aliens, and trees, making this design a beautiful harmony of things the Orbit team loves.
Whilst the vibrant color palette of the V5 gives the deck a retro look and feel, the V6 has a darker tone, giving it a sense of mystery and intrigue.
In terms of the design, here’s what the product page had to say,
The entire Orbit Crew sat down and spoke about design theory along with what makes playing cards look good up close and from afar. We made more renditions of this edition than all previous back designs combined. We believe we have a formula for what makes a deck aesthetically pleasing. After months of brainstorming we came to this final design. We couldn’t be happier and it’s our favorite deck to date. One of our rules is, we don’t create a new Orbit deck unless it’s going to be our new favorite deck to date.
Besides the new subtle one way back design on the V6, you will notice that the jokers have been updated with alien Jokers who have abducted Carl and are now riding his bike!
The face cards are pretty much standard, similar to those of the V5s.
Printed by the USPCC, the new Orbits will have the same crushed premium stock, same matte box, and same traditional cut as the V5’s. Available now from theorbitbrown.myshopify.com for $13.
