Marvel’s Spider-Man set for Magic: The Gathering launches this week, and it could be about to kick off a major new theme for the long-running card game.
We’ve seen the One Ring and Final Fantasy’s crystals, but now the infamous Infinity Stones are coming to Magic: The Gathering across multiple sets, including a cosmic foil variant that's already sold for $10,000.
With the Soul Stone already in the Spidey set, here’s all we currently know about where the other stones could appear, and how to find them.
Magic: The Gathering's Infinity Stones Explained
If you’ve kept up with Marvel comics or even the MCU, you’ll no doubt know all about the Infinity Stones. All six of them contain untold power, but bringing them all together is Thanos’ mission as he looks to wipe out half of all life in the universe.
That means they’re likely to be powerful in cardboard form, too. The Soul Stone has been revealed so far in various designs, and it’s running a high price already because of its ability to exile a creature in return to bring cards back from your graveyard every turn. So, what can we expect from the others?
The Soul Stone is a black legendary artifact, and the other Infinity Stones will almost definitely come in Red, Blue, Green, and White versions. That leaves one missing, so we eventually expect to see a colorless one as well to complete the six: Space, Mind, Reality, Power, Time, and Soul.
Since we’ve only seen one Infinity Stone so far, it’s hard to see if there’s a pattern, but given it comes in Cosmic Foil, we reckon there’s a solid chance that theme continues.
While the Borderless version is up for $4,000 on TCGPlayer right now, the Cosmic Foil variant has already sold for $10,000, with estimates suggesting there are fewer than the serialized Traveling Chocobos from Final Fantasy (as a reminder, those were limited to just 77).
If you're looking to go chase these rare cards without wanting to pay the big bucks, then unfortunately you might just be out of luck. Collector's boosters are the best chance at scoring these rare finds, and they're sold out completely expect for resellers (who are charging upwards of $1000 for just 12 Packs).
