New Design - Boracay Beach Resort ??

Matt · #1 (**permalink**) 12-11-2007, 03:21 AM

Hello everyone!

As you might know we recently discontinued a few of our stock designs. Because of this we are considering some new designs to add to our range. I would very much appreciate your input on these designs. We are considering the following three designs:

Set A
* Fantasy / Tropical theme
* White inlays
* Injection molded look
* 13 different denominations (0.25 to 100.000)

Set B
* Fantasy / Tropical theme
* White inlays
* Compression molded look
* 12 different denominations (0.25 to 250.000)

Set C
* Fantasy / Tropical theme
* Colored inlays
* Compression molded look
* 11 different denominations (0.25 to 25.000)

These chips are non-licensed fantasy chips intended for private entertainment use only. Their design is based on popular demand only and is not intended to replicate any existing casino or tournament chips, nor do we mean to draw a connection to any such chips. We are in no way affiliated with any casino companies or tournaments and our products are not sponsored or endorsed by such companies. Furthermore we do not mean to dilute or hurt such companies names, trademarks or sales. These chips are not from, nor can they be serviced by, any authorized dealers.

Like the idea ( set B most ) but find " boracay " quite a ugly " word " on chip ( just for " design " ....)

Love the design. Especially set B. Borocay beach is beautiful for those who have never been there.

Hi Matt,
These chips look pretty nice.
However, I'm afraid the reason I like these designs are because the first looks pretty much like your Rio WSOP tribute, and the others like your WSOP 2007 ones.
The inlay change may not be radical enough to avoid the comparison.

I share papycc's view that "Boracay" word is not as beautiful as the beach it belongs to

Regards

The chips do look very nice!

I must say that i do agree with the "boracay" on the front. It's not as easy on the toungue and the ear... plus the font for it doesn't remind me of luxury resort beach.

I like B. You know, i might also add a tinge of faded yellow or off white gradient around the edge, to give it that "worn in" beach look.

Would this be a "compression molded look" or a compression molded chip?

Seems like you may get more buyers, if these were always sold as customs.

Leave the chip design exactly as created, but let the buyer choose what word to put in place of Boracay, and the location. Anything beyond those changes requires custom art fees.

Considering you would only be changing text, you would not have to prototype chips for every change.

Just a thought. This design is nicely done and has always appealed to me.

I personally like C out of the 3 designs, would be very interested in purchasing a set once they become available, do we have an estimated time for retail?
