Wow I like it, esp like how you use the country flag as the spot

Where you get the dealer buttons and are those plastic Aria cards?
I'm so jelly of these Aria chips.

Fantastic job! That looks to be a pretty good match for Arc Yellow on the $5
. It's a shame the green on the $100 can be matched

They still look really nice and decently bright and colorful in person.

You are the color king! How the heck do you get such bright colors on these?
A couple of arrivals from Tina landed today. “Canada Bird Cruise” cash & tournament sets for me and a custom set for a friend here in Zurich.
First impressions are pretty good - colours, edge spot alignment and general quality seems hard to complain about.

Pretty sure Tina & Co. are using entirely new blanks but on the plus side the colors are much deeper and more vibrant on these. Starlites are from the original run. Aria is current just received.
New chips are a tad thinner, a little lighter, a little more rounded on the edges, and need calipers to confirm but slightly smaller diameter I think as well.

That’s crazy good color for a 28 cent ceramic.
They look different in a few ways. More rounded edges? Stacks shorter? I’m happy to hear the new formula is more vibrantPretty sure Tina & Co. are using entirely new blanks but on the plus side the colors are much deeper and more vibrant on these.

Added to my post but ya most of those things. A downside will be finding racks. The old spinettis special likely will be pretty loose for these

Hmmmm I wonder if this is the way our chips will look from the Batch 5-add on order

I really really liked the old blank! I hope I like the new one equally as much.
These have a very similar feel. I prefer the old blank by far myself but can’t complain for the price tag. And the color really is insane. Still a solid dealz
I’m probably pickier than most and hypercritical about ceramics too so take with a grain of salt

Weirdly all of mine are the same height as my first set

Maybe they are accounting for that? @Eloe2000 included a sample of his chips and they look like the old blanks to mePeople doing add-on orders might be in for a surprise - me included

I just got a Casa Mango add on and the originals were in Sean’s first batch. As @JeepologyOffroad pointed out, the blanks in our order which arrived a week ago are different. It doesn’t bother me and someone in our group had to mention it for me to notice. I will take comparison photos next week.

I was thinking about adding onto my set as well and can confirm that I think something changed in their process (blanks and/or printing). Tina flat out said that the colours won’t match, but didn’t mention anything about the blanks.
Now that I see the height difference in @JeepologyOffroad ’s pics, I think it’s too late for add-ons for those that care about matching colours and chips.

Batch 5 is an add-on to my original order. To say I have no concern would be misleading, but I feel that once the Batch 5 chips are amongst the ‘originals,’ I won’t be able to tell the difference (that much) - especially when they are in play.
With enough of them mixed together I don’t think it would be too noticeable. I’d be more worried about these lighter chips not stacking as stable if anything at all. Fwiw I’ll definitely be using these to try to convince the other game in town to upgrade to these chips. Still awesome.
Just out of curiosity, how does a mixed barrel stack? Anything noticeable?

This was my concern exactly, I ordered 3575 in chips 4MFRB's back in an Anita's order so everything matched given the known variability in product supply runs from China
my advice for future orders
- when choosing colours and spots choose significantly different colours in the set unless you are comfortable with similar yellows/reds/pinks etc (any colour) being blended into a similar colour wheel. (unless you are prepared for that and consider this when choosing spot edges, it does hold the set together however)
- order all of the custom cards mold chips you are going to want in one order....they are cheap so why worry. If ordering more, order something different as non-matching chips makes the OCD go Crazy!
-If ordering a set with add-ons and quality control in mind for reorders etc....buy local in North America!
