New Tuck Boxes from DriveThruCards!

Tuck-Box-with-Cards

Tuckboxes are now live for I Can't Even With These Monsters and Curse You, Robin Hood! When you're in the checkout page, just select the third option for the item. It's entirely optional as always, but they look great. Here's a quick tour of their features!

 

Tuck-Box-Overview
First off, the print quality is great as always. The print is smooth, the colors are vibrant, and the consistency is top notch.

Tuck-Box-Corner

When you take a closer look, you'll notice this seam along the edges of one of the panels. This is because these boxes use no glue in their construction. They're entirely secured with folds and flaps. This has the additional benefit of making the box very rigid and sturdy.

Tuck-Box-with-Cards

When you open the box, you'll see the deck of cards you ordered without the usual order # card or cellophane band that comes with no-box or plastic box decks.

Tuck-Box-Back

The rear hinge of the top lid needs a crease here to open properly, which is why I designed the back of my box to be on this panel. I set up the info bar to be just above that crease so it looks more intentional. I also made sure not to put any important text along this crease.

Tuck-Box-Interior

Here's a close-up of the inside of the box, showing one other benefit of this construction. Unlike typical tuckboxes, there's no bottom flap sticking up, pushing against the cards. It makes returning the cards to the box an easy breeze.

Tuck-Box-Interior-Flap

This big interior flap is the key to the whole box's construction. That flap sticking into the side a bit creates a gentle pressure against the deck keeping it nice and snug.

 

And that's a quick overview of the new tuck boxes! I hope you dig them!
