I'm compiling a list based on my delighted discovery of an elvish Thoth workalike. The little white booklet on the newer release of the Enchanted Tarots from Lo Scarabeo have named their courts and minors after the Thoth pattern...Lord of Pleasure, Prudence, etc.,
I'm certain those who have Gaudanzi's decks have noticed this before, although I haven't read it in any reviews.
Any way, here's a start on Thoth workalikes:
Alba Doraldo/Enchanted Tarot, Lo Scarabeo, G. Gaudanzi
Adrian Tarot, AGM Mueller
Cosmic Tarot, AGM Mueller
Cosmic Tribe Tarot, Stevie Postman (?)
Haindel Tarot, U.S. Games (?)
Rohrig Tarot(?)
Stone Tarot, Alison Stone
Tarot de Paris, Connections Publishing/St. Martin's Press, J. Philips
Tarot of the Spirit, U.S. Games, P. Eakins
I must have missed others? I like meanings from Thoth-based or inclusive books, many of them feel very creative. I included Cosmic Tribe as it seems a thread was started by someone reading Gerd Ziglar's Mirror of the Soul book and realizing correspondences in Cosmic Tribe.
Maybe in the case of some of these tarots, they would be 'close to Thoth' in some cards, not all? In a rating of 1 to 5, 5 being most Thothlike in majors, minors, meanings, court figures and readings?
Let me know if this seems okay or actually seems kind of kooky.

Mari, I don't fully understand what you mean.
Anyway, I would add Gill and Vision Quest, both Thoth-structured.
(the keywords are mostly the same on both)
