Hatsune Miku features in one of Magic’s most unexpected crossovers to date, with a Secret Lair giving the digital performer the spotlight.
Secret Lair productsare often a place for MTG to feature unique crossovers that wouldn’t otherwise fit into Magic’s ever-evolving landscape. Sometimes Secret Lairs explore a particular concept or aesthetic – like the cereal mascots ofSecret Lair: Just Add Milk– and sometimes they can feature crossovers that would be too niche to build into a full Universes Beyond set.
Now, MTG’s Secret Lair is debuting a crossover that would have seemed unimaginable just a few years ago, with Vocaloid artistHatsune Miku crossing over into MTG.
Pre-orders for the Sakura Superstar set will become available onMay 13, costing $29.99 for the regular release and $39.99 for foil variants.
Secret Lair x Hatsune Miku: Sakura Superstar is focused on style over reprint value, but that isn’t to say that this release is devoid of powerful cards. Miku, the Reknowed is an alt-art version of Feather, the Redeemed, a particularly powerful BorosCommanderthat can easily stampede to victory in any match.
Additionally, Miku, Lost but Singing reprints Azusa, Lost but Seeking, a green-mana card that is absolutely crucial for Landfall decks. Fans of Miku’s music and unique style will have plenty of options once this Secret Lair launches, as these cards can be kept together in a collection or slotted into a number of viable decks.
