Even with bad lighting these are a homerun!!! Here are some newly printed samples. They do not have labels on them. She is going to apply some labels and send me those photos. I could not be happier with how these turned out
Boat chips are going to take on a new meaning when this group buy fills an entire container ship by itself.
El Cortez fantasy set?!?! Yes please!

At this time the only inlay options are textured & matte.

I was going to ask if these could be printed full face without labels needed at all, but those injection marks (?) make it a pretty clear no. These look fantastic!
Thanks for the quick reply! Any future runs with a Polyinno-esque inlay option may make me end my holdout on these...
@justincarothers , is Tina making the inlay stickers based on our artwork?
… and putting them on (ie. they come ready to play)?

Sorry if I'm missing it, but which group buy does custom label + stock chip design go in?

In the custom buy:
https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/new-greek-mold-hybrids-pre-designed-and-customs-09-12.110153/
Just list the chip letter/number and quantity and note that you are doing custom labels

Will there be a $500 or $1k design for the El Quartz to do a tourney set?

Not sure if the EC has $1k chips IRL to reference, I only saw up to $500. I'll take a gander when I'm down in Vegas next to see if I can spot any
, if not I'm sure I can think of a neat design for one.
Based on the scrown mold hybrid sample chips I received today, their textured hybrid labels are magnificent. There is a very light metallic sheen to them, and I much prefer it to the glare produced by Sun-Fly's glossy hybrid labels. Bonus is that these chips also have a matte-finish rolling edge, unlike Sun-Fly's signature glossy rolling edge surface.
All seven of my chips still have one injection point pip on the rolling edge, which is barely perceptible on three of the chips. It all depends on location relative to the spot colors, and which colors are used. Some chip pips appear to have been ground down more than others prior to printing.
I suspect that the edge pips are needed to release pressure when the mold cavity is filled from the injection points located under the label. Without such an outlet, you cannot fill the mold.
I appreciate it. Beautiful tribute!Not sure if the EC has $1k chips IRL to reference, I only saw up to $500. I'll take a gander when I'm down in Vegas next to see if I can spot any

If I recall, the Championship Poker Series chips from PGI had labels with a light metallic sheen. Are these similar?

Got a River Rat sample from below and seems to have the same metallic sheen to the labels the CPS chips did.

Just curious as to which samples you got. Both @chipinla and @harrysallout samples both felt very smooth to me
I haven't handled Gear labels yet (I'm sure they're brilliant based on their reputation). That said, I like Tina labels a lot- lots of fine detailing and vibrant colors.
I got both those samples as well. The Lucky 7 @harrysallout chips appear to be the matte while the @chipinla Playboy chips have a slight texture to them. The texture isn’t like a coarse Paulson texture, however.

@LeLe . time for a reorderEven with bad lighting these are a homerun!!! Here are some newly printed samples. They do not have labels on them. She is going to apply some labels and send me those photos. I could not be happier with how these turned out
Just got another sample of the Tina hybrid today, and the labels are amazing. Even the plain white (where there is zero ink) is slightly metallic and almost pearlescent. I guess that's why the colors, when printed on top, really pop. And the detail even with color artwork is extremely sharp.
Similar, maybe, but definitely not the same material. These are much nicer laminates, with more 'sparkle' compared to the 'sheen' of the older China clay labels.

Am I the only one that is more than a little worried about my inlay design ending up being sold by "Tina" to whomever decides they want it?
Idk....
I much prefer the idea of ordering custom blanks and applying my own labels made by @Gear or someone other than "Tina"
From my understanding, this will be possible, right? @justincarothers

I cannot guarantee anything but so far we had a pretty good relationship. She says she will not sell anything of mine. She has asked me on a few occasions when people from here have tried to go directly to her and denied their request because I said no. At least that is what she tells me. But getting your own labels for blank chips would definitely solve that worry

Hmm, I thought designers let others buy the same chips with an art fee per chip?
