If you know a Spider-Man fan or a Magic: The Gathering player, then there’s a perfect product that’s tailor-made for them this Christmas.
Magic’s Spider-Man set includes cards depicting classic comic moments, costumed heroes, and nefarious villains, and you can get an instant collection with the Gift Bundle. Better yet, this unique product is reduced by 25% at Amazon for Black Friday.
This discount brings the $89.99 set down to $67.94, and includes ten packs, with nine Play Boosters and a single Collector Booster. Given Collector Boosters, when you can find them, are going for around $35 - $40 each, that’s a chunk of the value of this bundle tied up there.
It includes cards in foil or alternative art treatments, increasing the chances of finding something rare or valuable, but the other nine packs inside are Play Boosters, which are ideal for actually playing Magic: The Gathering.
Also included is an alternate-art promo card exclusive to the box, as well as 30 lands to help with deckbuilding.
Why the discount? It’s twofold. For one, this product seems squarely aimed at being a gift option this holiday season. The other is that, despite high hopes from Wizards of the Coast, the Spider-Man set just didn’t take off as they’d hoped.
Maybe it’s product fatigue, maybe it’s the set’s less-than-compelling mechanics, but it’s still got some awesome artwork that’s ideal for collectors and casual players.
