Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
Just received mine. WOW!
Those 500 chip mahogany cases are real nice also. Already placed my reorder to fill up the few empty rows I had left over. Thanks 10% and MS, great job. Now off to win some money with these new chips.

Re: Egyptian Chips are on the move!
I got my Egyptians yesterday. Packaging was 1st class. Much better than the order I got from that place that sells the Martini chips. The $.25 chips are great. Nice dark blue and edgespot theme that matches the original set. They are simple and elegant. No mistaking them for an diff denomination because of color similarities in bad garage light, etc. The octogons and plaques are just beautiful. The plaques make a different chip sound when drop stacked like an acordian. Very nice. What I don't like about the oct. and the plaques is the edge spot. The white on them is totally weak IMO. I'm aware of the previous reasons why they couldnt be all purple and orange on the edges. I think it's BS. If the company is going to let us have them, then they should have let us get it right, all the way right. I still love them and I usually don't complain about much, but I wanted to add that critique. THey would have been totally the bomb with solid purple edges and the octogons too. I also must have missed the post about the octogons having a silk like texture. I really dont like that.
MSPatton runs a great web site and I will be buying from him in the future. Very professional from start to finish. Can't wait for the game friday to wow the guys! A great big thank you to TenPercenter/MSPatton, and anyone else who had design input on this chipset. Absolutely impressive! Accident [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] PS, the octogons fit nicely in an oversized tray that came with some 43mm paulson Vineyard $100 chips.

[/ QUOTE ] I didn't remember the texture being mentioned either. The slick plaques aren't bad and it makes for a sharp graphic... I'd have to see some with a diff texture to decide which I like better. They are still the best octagons & plaques I've ever seen [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]!

Re: The Egyptians have landed!
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Re: the plaque... Yeah, my Mom mentioned that too, I didn't notice it (starstruck maybe?). I asked and Chipco said that it's the way the plaques are placed in the machine. Other plaques are printed on the horizontal (like a dollar bill), which is how they're printed even when it's a vertical print. No biggy to me, like you said, you can't see both sides at once... Ten [/ QUOTE ] seems like a goof on Chipcos part. they could have just flipped the back picture in their computer and printed away and that could have solved the problem. i think it defeats the whole purpose of putting the back of Tut altogether. nonetheless, great chips! [/ QUOTE ] Mine finally came in and I agree that the orientation of the plaque ought to be easily fixable. Its pretty clear (to me, anyway) that the back ought to be oriented such that, while looking at the front with the mask properly oriented, a sideways rotation should result in the corresponding view of the back (as opposed to the upside-down view you get currently). This is somewhat disappointing-- is there any chance of this getting fixed? I'd be willing to pay the shipping if I could exchange the ones I got for reprinted ones with the correction. Other than that, the new additions look fantastic!
