I'm not expecting a premium, but as a cheaper alternative to the real deal.

Yeah I couldn't think of one either, so I just named some that were on the list but at least meet the hotness requirement.  Btw, is it possible Legendary non-creatures are in the set? __________________

Really? I even have a Doran deck and this is a total bummer. Ah well, can't win 'em all, I guess.

WOTC: "* The 15 legendary creatures are all printed in the current card frame. For several, it is for the first time."

From the looks of it, probaly. So, this summer: From the Fault: Failures
next summer: From the Vault: Oh-my-god...-again?
after: from the fault: WOTC-headquarters-burned-to-the ground-charred-from-the-vault-edition. __________________

Let's see what the other legends are before it gets dismissed. At least there aren't many more Alara blocks legends to force feed into this.__________________

Theres... 15 total.http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?type=+[legendary]+[creature]||subtype=+[legendary]+[creature]&format=[%22Shards%20of%20Alara%20Block%22] So...minus Teferi...and one (probably) P3K...that leaves... 13 Alara ....so I'm guessing no Raka Mar and no Progenitus. failboat population: us for believing in WOTC.

I bet they will soon regret not putting at least one card from the restricted list in future FTV sets. No chase card = No sales.

The print run is extremely limited. They will have no problem selling their entire print run to stores, and if those don't get $100 per set but 'only' MSPR, that's not a problem either for Wizards, or for the stores. __________________

The problem that I see is stores not being able to sell them for MSRP and it's going to look bad for WOTC to have this item sitting on shelves and selling below MSRP on Ebay/at events. Next year, they may not be able to sell their print run, like with some dual decks, fire & lightning, ect.

FTV: Dragons was complete garbage and sold out above msrp very easily. This will do just fine too. __________________

When FTV: Dragons hit, Thunder Dragon was still a $30 card. Add in Kokusho and you have above the MSRP right there, not to mention the preview Hellkite Overlord.__________________

Add in the Dragon collectors outnumber Legends collectors by about 100 to 1. Angels or Dragons are the only sets that they could get away with this. This set is shaping up to have even less value than the Dragons set with few collectors to sell to.

I'd pay MSRP for this. I will point and laugh at any shop that tries to overcharge like they did for relics.

Pout Pout!There was alot of jank in all of them, and with EDH the way it is this will sell just fine. Anything never foiled before will help it sell and isn't a kiki foil like $35+ right now? I'll likely get 1 set this time __________________

I am almost 100% sure there will be a line at every place in the world to get these at MSRP.
