Booster Fun in The Hobbit Play Booster
Play Boosters can turn up book cover cards, Dragon hoard frame cards and scene cards whose artwork links across several cards. Some treatments stay out of Play Boosters: the five Dwarvish-language mythic rares and the gleaming gold Smaug the Magnificent headliner are Collector Booster only, so pick Collector Boosters if those are your target.
Play Boosters are designed for draft and sealed as well as opening for fun. They are also sold in 30-pack displays, which add a traditional foil Middle-earth classic artist card as a box topper.
Who It’s For
Tolkien fans who already play Magic, groups planning a Hobbit draft night and collectors who want to try the set before committing to a bigger purchase will all get plenty from these boosters. They also make a simple add-on gift for any Magic player.
