If you got some ideas already mocked up for a new CPC stock set, place them here.

No matter if tourney or cash, finished or in progress.

I tried not to go over level 4 spots.
And keep up hope for a new yellow in future ; )
This is what i would love to see:

There is a contest for this coming up! Some people may not want to post their brainchilds.

I’d say for stock designs there are two markets:

1. The people that just want to buy some chips for a gift or slight upgrade. They probably don’t care about spots (probably call them side paint) - they want a cool inlay that will ooh and ahh their uninformed friends. You could put it on dice chips and they would be happy. Money and looks are what they are after. They’d be happy with slugged plastic and a Las Vegas inlay.

2. Chippers and hobbiests. They want some nice spots and base colors, probably on two different molds for variety in sets, and what they really want are chips they can buy NOW and relabel to suit their game or needs. So a variety of colors and spots - possibly a “primary” and “secondary” set do they can mix and match and get a “kinda custom” feel. These guys would prefer blanks to be honest. To either label or hot stamp. Maybe a “relabel” design of colors and spots, and a “hot stamp” - “milling” set to have a custom project.

For the factory of course they don’t
want level four spots to increase the cost of their inventory. Maybe even a solid set would work for the #2 customers.

Not easy for a top brand to get people pick their stock designs, if they propose a custom service.
If you like a 312 set (me!), it‘s not much more expensive than a stock set, if you got time and and a design ready.

I understand people don‘t want to share their designs. But for those who don‘t mind…

I could imagine a solid 44mm scroll set too!
 
I 've made a cheap series (all chips L1) and a less cheap one.
IMHO, they shouldn't have currency marks, to be used for either cash or tourney, let alone by customers whose country's currency is not the dollar.
 
Not likely planning to submit a design myself, we'll see - but here's a couple dead concepts that I never took further than a quick mockup.. just didn't love them enough to keep putting in more effort, but would likely never see the light of day otherwise. Would love to see the themes done well though if someone wants to run with them!

I've grown up around horse racing and have thought alot about a themed set. Thats a pretty good start! And who doesn't like the HHR mold!?

Don't see Horsehead as a good mold for stock, needs more flexibility. Or perhaps a couple molds available to choose from? And maybe to that end, a couple Inlays?
