Happy Wednesday MTG peeps,
There is a very exciting announcement over on the mothership today via WoTC Monty regarding the very next From the Vaults product due out latter this year in August. First up, just a quick 4.1.1 on this series for those newer players -
From the Vault is a series of Magic the Gathering box sets, released on an annual basis, typically in late August by Wizards of the Coast. Each box set contains 15 tournament legal, black-bordered foil cards with a common theme. Some of these cards may feature alternative artwork specific to that set.
Here's the quick round-up of previous FTV sets :
From the Vault: Dragons, featuring Dragons, released August 29th, 2008
From the Vault: Exiled, featuring Banned cards, released August 28th, 2009
From the Vault: Relics, featuring Artifacts, August 27th, 2010
From the Vault: Legends, featuring Legendary Creature cards, released August 26th, 2011
and the new one . . .
From the Vault: Realms, featuring Lands, to be released August 31st, 201
Here's the corporate for this product . . .
From the Farthest Reaches of the MultiverseMost planes of existence have their own wondrous places. But only Planeswalkers can travel to lands beyond their own and call on their mana from across the Æther. You have seen dozens of realms, and those of your kind have told you of dozens more. Your bonds to these lands are the root of your power.
Contents and Details• 15 Premium foil cards, including 7 with new art.
• An exclusive spindown life counter
• A collector's guide.
• Each card has been printed using a foil process unique to the From the Vault series.
• The 15 lands are all printed in the current card frame. For some, it is for the first time.
• From the Vault: Realms will be available world-wide in English only, and will have an extremely limited print run.
• All cards are black bordered and tournament legal. This means that these cards are legal for use in any tournaments where the original printings are still legal.

We are personally hoping for Maze of Ith, Karakas, Dark Depths and / or Forbidden Orchard. Drop us a line or a comment below - what cards would make you happy were you to pull it from the box ?

OMG! Foil Command Tower PPLLZZZ!!! Along side with Ancient Tomb and Tolarian Academy, lol. City of Traitors perhaps? I love land so I'm sure I'll go nuts for the foils and alt arts.
ReplyDeleteYay another product aimed at the sellers rather than player. Who will charge close to $100 on msrp $35 assuming they are getting them close to $25 that is a cool 300% profit. Kind of like drugs and popcorn.
ReplyDeleteWhen will wizards do something for the casual magic player rather than kissing up to the tourneys and sellers while screwing the player who just wants to play for fun. I am just saying something goes wrong when people will stories about who they bought this at retail price and that is just wrong. Oh off to buy more printer ink PROXY MAN AWAY
