Magic: The Gathering x Sonic The Hedgehog is finally here, but it’s also gone in a flash, just like its namesake. At the time of writing, the “Sonic Superdrop” is down to low stock across the board, with items selling out pretty swiftly. Boo!
Still, they do join a long line of Secret Lair drops that can be found on the secondary market, just like Final Fantasy before it. Still, you can expect to pay a significant markup, so keep that in mind before you decide to empty that bag of gold rings for these cards.
At the time of writing, only the Friends and Foes set is available from Wizards of the Coast, meaning you’ve not got long to claim either the Foil or Non-Foil variant at $49.99 or $39.99, respectively.
Every Sonic x Secret Lair Drop and Where to Buy Them
As we’ve already mentioned, you can expect to pay a lot more for any of these sets compared to buying directly via Wizards of the Coast (standard $30-40 nonfoil, $40-50 rainbow foil), with most being listed anywhere between $70-$150 or above right now.
That’s sadly just part of the supply and demand of sellers offering limited-time bundles right after WOTC has sold out.
Will the prices drop in the coming weeks? It’s hard to say, but we’ve always found TCGPlayer, while still eBay-owned, to be the most secure and trustworthy way to nab Secret Lair drops post-release.
Not only are they secure and trustworthy, but their sellers do tend to adjust to the market, whereas some stores will still be charging markups for months and maybe years to come.
There are three sets of Sonic x Secret Lair cards, with Foil variants of each, but you can also buy a ‘Sonic 100% Complete Bundle’ that includes everything.
That comes in Foil and Non-Foil versions, too.
