Get ready for a large batch of nostalgia, along with an empty bank account.
The kicker is that it will cost you $999.
Magic The Gathering 30th Anniversary Edition is an interesting set of cards to say the least.
However, the 30th Anniversary set is very different.
Yes, there are some lands there as well.
This is a limited edition set with limited quantities printed.
Just hours after orders went on sale on November 28,the sets were sold out.
Opening up the set, a wave of nostalgia hit me.
Many of these cards I used when MTG launched its revised edition back in 1994.
So seeing these cards, in my hands, for the first time in decades was pretty cool.
As for the packaging, it’s nice.
It’s in a black box with “30th Anniversary Edition” and the MTG logo on the front.
The inside contains the four booster packs and there’s a prismatic background.
There is nothing exceptionally interesting about the packaging, which comes as a little bit of a bummer.
If that is the case, the presentation could have been better, especially with the packaging.
This set is cool in many ways, but for the $999 pricetag, it’s a letdown.
It’s great to see cards from the first sets, but they’re not usable.
The 30th Anniversary Set is more of a display piece to talk to other players about.
