A modern high speed printing press can do one full deck of cards in one sheet, and likely do several hundreds of sheets per hour. While 500K decks will be a huge amount to make, the machinery is easily up to it. The boxes and 'trinket' could limit production time though.

From the FAQ:
What does "extra charges may apply" for my multiple order shipping mean?
We’re still negotiating on the shipping. We’ll try to get the lowest shipping possible, but for now we don’t want to make any promises we can’t pinky swear on.
For the time being, just use the price for a SINGLE deck given to you by the shipping calculator, and we’ll confirm everything before putting your Exploding Kittens in the mail.

@Cha: 6x35=210. $5 for shipping to Canada is $215. When you manage your pledge, select the country at the bottom where it is shipping to, and it will tell you how much to send it there.
Andy Karran 2015-02-19T14:45:59-05:00
@Mike - I couldn't see that in the FAQ. What it says is that additional charges may apply. Never backed on KS before so I assumed that my bank account just got charged at the end of funding period. But it makes sense now I see there is a chance for me to add the charges later.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-19T14:46:11-05:00

Mike Kabala 2015-02-19T14:48:35-05:00
... so just multiply the charge for a single deck (including shipping for International orders) by the number you want and set your total pledge to that. If you order multiple NSFW decks, you will get a kid-friendly deck for each NSFW deck. If you want extra kid-friendly decks on top of that, add the kid-friendly deck price (including International shipping, if applicable) as many times as necessary to get the total you want.
It's not that hard to do if you go about it step-by-step.
