Steamboat Arcana 1928 Expansion Pack — Production & Shipping Update
3 months ago

Hello everyone,
We wanted to share a clear update on the Steamboat Arcana 1928 Expansion Pack and where things currently stand.
The Expansion Pack has finished printing and is shipping by sea freight, traveling together with the Hundred-Acre Arcana decks. Sea freight typically takes around 40 days, placing arrival in the United States around mid-February.
Once the shipment arrives, fulfillment will proceed in stages. Our first priority will be shipping Hundred-Acre Arcana orders. After that, we’ll be moving directly into our next project, The Aviator’s Arcana, the sequel to Steamboat Arcana 1928, which will be launching on Kickstarter for a short 16-day campaign.
Following the Aviator’s Arcana campaign, we plan to begin shipping single orders of the Steamboat Arcana 1928 Expansion Pack at the beginning of April.
Earlier in the production cycle, we experienced a brief delay due to a printing issue with Mystic Honeypot Arcana, followed by a short wait while the printer sourced additional 330 GSM black-core paper. Because we intentionally built extra buffer time into the schedule, we are right on track with our original delivery timeline.
Thank you sincerely for your patience and continued support. We truly appreciate it and will continue to share updates as we move through each stage.
Warm regards, Mark & Steamboat Legends

Great news — printing is officially finished for Steamboat Arcana 1928 and the Gaucho’s Arcana 1928 Expansion Pack.

What’s Next?
The printer will begin packaging and shrink-wrapping this week
Your decks are scheduled to ship alongside The Hundred-Acre Arcana
Our recent Mystic Honeypot Arcana reprint also finished today

We’ll continue to post updates as everything moves through final packaging and shipping.
Thank you, as always, for your patience and support — we’re very excited to get these into your hands.

24 Hours Left: 🌙💀🎶 The Skeleton Dance Arcana & Steamboat Arcana Expansion Update 🎶💀🌙
5 months ago

Hi everyone,
Halloween is nearly upon us, and the spirits are stirring. The skeletons are dancing one last time before the curtain falls — and with only 24 hours left, we wanted to share an exciting update on the Steamboat Arcana 1928: Expansion Pack and celebrate everything this incredible month has brought to life.
🃏 Expansion Pack Printing Update
All payments for backers on installment plans have now been processed, and surveys should be accessible for everyone. If you’re having any trouble completing yours, please reach out to me directly at [email protected] and I’ll help you get it sorted.
Because the printer needed to restock 330 GSM black-core paper — the same premium stock used for the original Steamboat Arcana — the Expansion Pack will now print alongside The Skeleton Dance Arcana.
This ensures a perfect color and finish match, so your entire collection will look and feel seamless — as if it all came from one world.
Halloween is nearly here, and with it the final hours of The Skeleton Dance Arcana campaign. Now approaching 400 backers and nearly $39,000 raised, this deck has become something truly special — a celebration of spooky season, classic animation, and the tradition of returning to your tarot each year.
Here’s what’s been unlocked so far: 🎃 Halloween Bonus Cards – eight alternates that let you transform your deck each autumn into a Halloween edition 🪙 Bronze Divination Coin – a vintage charm for fortune and reflection 💀 Dark Edge Finish – a gothic touch that deepens the deck’s atmosphere 🩰 Lenticular Box Upgrade – featuring dancing skeletons in motion 🖤 Matching Tarot Cloth & Pouch Set – themed for the season ✨ Foil Logo & Premium 330 GSM Paper – matching the original Steamboat Arcana decks
🕯️ Why This Deck Matters
The Skeleton Dance Arcana is more than a tarot deck — it’s a yearly ritual, a playful reflection of light and shadow that you can return to every autumn. It’s the spiritual successor to Steamboat Arcana 1928, a love letter to the earliest era of animation and the boundless creativity that began with your support.
Together, Steamboat Arcana and The Skeleton Dance Arcana form the first two chapters of our growing universe — a celebration of imagination, craftsmanship, and the timeless joy of rediscovering the classics.
⚓ Join the Dance Before the Season Ends
There are only 24 hours left to be part of The Skeleton Dance Arcana before the campaign closes for the year. Don’t miss your chance to add this new tradition to your collection and make it part of your Halloween ritual for years to come.
Thank you for helping us grow this creative world — from Steamboat Arcana to Hundred-Acre Arcana to Skeleton Dance Arcana. Your support continues to bring these worlds to life, and we can’t wait to share everything that comes next.
With gratitude, Mark and The Steamboat Legends Team ⚓💀✨
