Magic: The Gathering - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Crossover Sets Revealed

Wizards of the Coast recently unveiled an exciting collaboration, introducing the Magic: The Gathering – Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover set on what they've dubbed "Turtle Tuesday." This announcement, part of the Secret Lair Totally TubuLair Superdrop, brings together the beloved card game and the iconic ninja turtles in a unique collection designed to captivate both seasoned players and dedicated collectors. The set is notable for its blend of vibrant artwork, nostalgic nods to the VHS era, and the inclusion of sought-after reprints that promise to add significant value to many Commander decks.

The Totally TubuLair Superdrop is not merely a visual treat; it's also a treasure trove of valuable cards. Many of the included reprints, some of which haven't seen significant attention in over a decade, carry substantial market value. For instance, a particular Ninja staple in the collection is valued at nearly $30, making the set an attractive proposition for players looking to enhance their decks. Beyond gameplay value, the set boasts unique artistic contributions, with TMNT co-creator Kevin Eastman illustrating one of the drops, adding an extra layer of appeal for fans. Furthermore, devotees of Stan Sakai’s Usagi Yojimbo will find a must-have drop tailored to their tastes. Each drop is available in non-foil for $29.99 and foil for $39.99, alongside various bundle options to suit different preferences.

Among the highlighted drops is "VHS Villains," which, while not offering significant reprint value, shines with its retro VHS-style art. Key cards like Species Specialist and Higure, the Still Wind provide strategic advantages, especially in typal and ninja-focused decks. "The Mighty Mutanimals" stands out for its high-value reprints, including Pirated Copy and Triumph of the Hordes, both of which are powerful additions to any deck. Pirated Copy, despite its potentially odd thematic pairing with Slash, offers robust creature-copying capabilities, while Triumph of the Hordes provides a potent boost with trample and infect. Kediss, Emberclaw Familiar and Hardened Scales further enhance this drop's appeal, making it arguably the most valuable in terms of raw card power.

"The Last Ronin" drop is celebrated for its thematic accuracy, drawing inspiration from the acclaimed comic book miniseries. It features Mental Misstep, a staple counterspell, and Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni as Splinter, Vengeful Sensei, which is lauded for its flavorful pairing and powerful graveyard interaction. Other valuable cards like Chord of Calling, Settle the Wreckage, and Anger contribute to this drop's strategic depth. Meanwhile, the Kevin Eastman-illustrated variants, available in both full-color and black-and-white ink, are headlined by Sakashima's Student, a highly efficient clone effect that maintains typal synergies. Finally, the Stan Sakai-featured drop includes Master of Ceremonies, a card known for its ability to manipulate table dynamics in Commander games, alongside Sunforger, Second Harvest, and Felidar Retreat, all offering strong utility in various deck archetypes.

The Totally TubuLair Superdrop is set to launch on March 2, 2026. This collection represents a significant event for Magic: The Gathering and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fans, combining collectible art with strategic card value in a series of thoughtfully curated drops.
