Magic: The Gathering's Spider-Man Cards Look Cool But Prices Have Gotten Out Of Control
Briefly

Magic: the Gathering is set to release a Marvel's Spider-Man card set in late 2025, featuring iconic characters such as Venom and Green Goblin. However, this set is accompanied by soaring prices, with booster packs costing $7 and Collector packs priced at $38. This trend mirrors similar pricing strategies from other crossover sets, leading to backlash from long-time fans. Players express frustration as these cards, though impactful in competitive formats, are essentially the same as cheaper non-licensed cards, with the cost inflating due to licensing fees.
"the baseline booster packs will still be $7 each, and a whopping $38 for the Collector packs sporting special card designs."
"Cards from these crossovers remain legal in the Standard Format, compelling dedicated players to participate despite the high costs."
