Edit: Here they are!
https://gametee.co.uk/products/storridges-definitely-unmarked-playing-cards
We will be putting some new Fallen London merchandise up for advance sale here next week, as part of the 10th birthday celebrations!
Storridge's Definitely Unmarked Deck of Playing Cards
A glorious, gilded deck of 55 cards suitable for Neathy or Surface games of your choice, featuring brand new illustrations of characters and items, and unique pip card designs in the four Neathy suits: hats, bats, rats and cats.
They are being produced by Gametee, who also made our beautiful, limited edition pin badge sets earlier this year. The cards are limited edition, but we've made almost three times as many sets as we did for the pins. Expect photographs of the finished deck in due course. I believe you will not be disappointed: they're truly something special! edited by h4nchan on 12/18/2019

We like to do these one-off special merchandise pieces, but we're a little limited by logistics. We don't have plans to make very limited display items at the moment, though Gametee do make candles so that's a possibility! I think you'll be pleased with the cards, they have a very special design and look like an in-universe artifact!

I've never bought FL merch before, but since these look really beautiful, and it's the 10-year-anniversary, I gave myself a nudge. 
Plus, being playing cards, this is merch that has an actual use, which I prefer muchly over pretty things that can do nothing but gather dust.

My Deck has just arrived at my lodgings today! And it's wonderful! I especially like that there is a well-known sentence written across four certain cards (of course, the cards had this number). And of course I loved the message I first saw after opening the package. And the Nine of Cats is such a nice idea.
I could go on like this for quite some time, I guess, but to sum up: My, everyone involved in this have simply outdone themselves. Thousands of Thanks for this great merch!

I had to deal with international shipping as well, but my cards arrived in under a week on the one shipping option listed. This long a wait sounds like a problem. edited by Optimatum on 1/19/2020

The captains' caps on the Three of Hats bearing the names of the three ships from the Season of Wrecks is a lovely detail!
Just saying, if Madame Shoshana's tarot set were ever made available in the future, I would very probably get that too...

Been a month since I ordered them with nothing received yet. £9.95 for "Express shipping" was more than half the price of the item.
This is the furthest update I can see on my order: "Your order is confirmed. We’ve accepted your order, and we’re getting it ready. Come back to this page for updates on your shipment status."
Ah well. -- edited by idyl on 1/18/2020
I honestly thought it was just me. I ordered mine the day it was available and picked the cheapest shipping option, not realizing that it did not have tracking, and I am still waiting. I have contacted Gametee about it, but they more or less said that it was out of their hands.
I am going to wait a few more days, but I will have to order a new one if it really was misplaced. I want to at least get something out of this, even if it means having to pay twice, though I am pretty skeptical how overseas shipping doesn't have any tracking whatsoever.

Got mine today! Took them only five days within Europe - my, they really are a work of art! 
I'm sorry for those experiencing a long wait. I suppose you're not in Europe? Don't lose hope yet! They're shipped via regular old air mail, which can sometimes take quite long. I remember ordering something at a little Canadian online shop a few years ago when the goods took 6 or 8 weeks to arrive!

I'm told by Gametee that these are selling fast, and I will be talking about them in all of the big emails I do about the birthday at the weekend - so if you want to get it on it, this is your nudge to do that thing!

Time for wild guesses and speculations!
[spoiler]Joker 1 – [photo] the Inconvenient Aunt Joker 2 – someone else, perhaps? oh dear... Mr Eaten? or even worse... the Struggling Artist?!
Ace of Bats – [photo] the Masters King of Bats – [early preview] the Topsy King Queen of Bats – [photo] one of the Clathermonts, presumably the Lady in Lilac herself if it is a Queen (either here or Rats) Jack of Bats – ?
Ace of Rats – hey, there’s something interesting drawn there! I mean, other Aces are equally interesting, but it’s something more than just a rat... any ideas? King of Rats – the Relickers? the Big Rat? Queen of Rats – see Queen of Bats; otherwise, the Gracious Widow? Mrs Plenty? Jack of Rats – any of the Rattus Faber?
King of Hats – the Manager? (he’s literally a king in a stovepipe hat, nuff said) or the Boatman? Queen of Hats – [early preview] the Traitor Empress Jack of Hats – [photo] Jack-of-Smiles
King of Cats – [mentioned in the description] the Banded Prince Queen of Cats – the Duchess? (99,9% sure) Jack of Cats – the Starveling Cat?[/spoiler] edited by JaneAnkhVeos on 12/19/2019

We discussed it on Discord already, but...
[spoiler]I think the Ace of Rats might be the Rat of Glory - in one of the photos we see the bottom of a candle.

As for the Queen of Bats, I thought it was the Quiet Deviless given the appearance and her darling bat (rest in peace) ![/spoiler] edited by millea on 12/19/2019
