Possibly only relevant for the German speaking amongst us. Saw this work of "art" twice within a week now... it's cute, actually (even if the product placement is not very well hidden)! vijeno

Do you have a link where we can see it??

Would that translate to Gummi Bear Tarot? If so, it's here on Aeclectic and I found a few other sites: http://www.tarotwelten.de/gummi.htm http://www.tarotpassages.com/gummi.htm

Yes, I suppose that's the one, Silverlotus, thanks! It looks rather cute, although I don't think I would buy it. Reminds me a bit of the Dutch children's book character Nijntje; I guess a Nijntje Tarot would be pretty cute too... ;)

Heeey yeah exactly that's it. I wouldn't even have thought there's a website dedicated to it. Well. There's a website to anything, isn't there? Anyway, aren't they cute??? But people outside the german speaking countries don't eat gummibaerli, or do they...???

Btw, the reason I brought the subject up: I was at the bookstore this morning, and the bookseller recommended this gummibaerli tarot to another customer. She didn't buy it though, cos "my son is 18 already". Well, I was close to asking her if she would buy it for me. I'm 31. :-) vijeno

OH cute! I like it, wouldn't mind one... ;) The cartoon artwork is really sweet and nice, and the essentialty of it is funny and pretty. Since I am gathering RW clones this one would be nice to add... }) *LOL* I also like the fact that the bears are coloured in different ways depending on the card, and I can see there might also be some symbology reasons - like the green bear in the Knight of Pentacles. I think there also was a thread about this same deck some weeks ago. I'll try searching for it.
