Idk if these work in Dollar General - theres not a connection to characters like Pokemon so opening an extra small pack seems even less fun for a younger audience

@@HometownTcg true, but I’m just talking about giving even less value to the people lower on the socioeconomic ladder. People thing dollar stores are cheap because of psychology but they’re actually more expensive in the middle to long term.

They got rid of draft boosters to come out with these which is a way to sell packs that have half the cost of draft ones. Its idiotic unless those are $2 or $3

So they went to play boosters to "streamline" the product line knowing they would add a new box type later in the year. 💯 Makes sense

Juicing the bundle? You mean the bundle that used to come with 10 packs, a novel, poster, a full color set checklist book, and a way sturdier deck box with an inner card holder? Now we're excited because they went from 8 set boosters to 9 play boosters? They've skimped so much on the bundle for no reason. Why remove that inner box? It's like 2 cents in production costs but it makes the bundle a million times worse as a deck box.

You're also forgetting wizards is not in the market of dollar stores. Like pokemon has the 3 cart pack she could get at the dollar stores. This pack is perfect to put in those markets.
@HometownTcg
@HometownTcg 20 дней назад
I agree they aren't in that market but MTG cards don't stick like Pokemon cards. There isn't the attachment to the characters that you have with Pokemon, so I am not sure that these would do as well.

Aren't these just gravity packs with an extra card? This is probably targeting the grandparents who shop at Target who remember their grandkid plays that funky Magic game and pick them up as a stocking stuffer or something, diversification of their revenue with minimal cost to product and market. If they end up being $1-$2 I think they're fine, but anyone watching your channel is not the target audience for this at all, heck they won't even be sold in LGSes (sold "At select retailers") so I don't see too much of an issue with these.

@@HometownTcg if these really do end up being a dollar then IMHO that'd be a win :) But...then again this is Wizards, I can see them botching this and trying to charge $4 because it's close to half of a Play Booster.

I've been trying to think of a price point where I'd buy these. I'm not sure it's there. I mean maybe if you want to do a low power draft, but only 6 cards means you need a lot of packs for that. I buy bulk sometimes for a chaotic cube experience, this doesn't scratch that itch.
@HometownTcg

It seems like a worse "value" than the theme booster and jumpstart packs. A concern of mine is that these will mostly be used as a repack product.

I stand by my assessment that the masterpiece era was the best era when it came to keeping everyone satisfied because we had a cheap standard due to the lottery hunt. With WOTC tilting towards premium product it has led to a certain amount of disengagement just look at Karlov Manor which would have sold more if the boxes weren't $130. I support Collector Boosters but the march toward higher prices are leaving would be participants on the sidelines.

I dropped that sub my guy. Those value boosters are a joke. I remember my brother hitting up dollar tree and family dollars with a digital scale. He would weigh each Pokémon value booster pack. Every pack that weighed a certain amount of grams or over, he took home. The packs with special foiled cards weighed more. They were a dollar per pack
