In the same way you can tell someone is from the XVIII century because he is arroused by ankles, you can tell someone is from USA because he feels nipples disturbing.
even if its every GP till mid next year I'm going to guess it will be maybe 1 or 2 given out at each GP as a side event prize, kind of like uncut sheets and such. Not going to be a huge dent in the supply.
J & j gaming in danville, va and Action Unlimited in Hyden, ky is giving them out as first place in their tournaments this month. Look them up on Facebook. I know we gave around 300.00 to have these for our tournaments kinda sad WOTC decided to do this for GPs

this isn't wizards fault. The only thing Wizards does is provide judges for the event and the prize support. Anything extra it's the TO job.
Back at the bar, when you thought we were getting all palsy-walsy, I was actually flipping through that sorry mind you call an organizer looking for dirt! You know what we call THAT? MIND-TAKING, BABY! ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTES!
not only do i not care about this because i am not a hardcore collector, i also think these look pretty lame compared to normal 'walkers. call me when they make a black on black nicol bolas card, these young walkers arent nearly badass enough to be black on black (sorry lily not you either).
I really still dont understand the point of these.

Nyarlathotep must all things be told
for he is the messenger between the spheres
and the traveler between the realms of the living and the dead.
He shall summon forth the ancient ones
and wake them from their deathly slumber
then shall the elder signs be shattered. Trade Thread

They're collectibles, I guess. Some people collect PW's, some people run them in their decks. This just gives you a new option, one that's new and exciting. You can't help but drool over these cards.

Just how many of these things do you guys think are going to be given away anyhow? They only sold a few thousand right? Do you really think that they'll give out more than a few hundred? Why would you think that's going to affect the price on these?
I for one can hold my saliva. I personally think they're ugly, and have no desire for them whatsoever.
I have noticed, however, that most of the people desiring these cards with inability to realistically get a hold of them are those from nations outside the U.S., and this doesn't help those people incredibly much. Although, a couple months of GPs is far more accessible to most than a single event held for a short period of time, so I suppose one could not complain.
Is <color> on <same color> just one color? It doesnt particularly make something look cool. But like people said. Fun to collect.

I fear I won't have much time to play Magic these days.
I get to watch worlds develop around me.
I get to watch great leaders, terrible oppressors, and trend setters rise and fall.
Limited, Standard, Modern, everything is a different playing field I feel I can observe, but will not actually touch.
I look forward to the stories I will hear.
And more so to the ones I will watch unfold first hand.
Isn't the unknown exciting?
I was lucky enough to see one that my store judge was able to get, and I can safely say they look better in person than most of the pictures on the net would indicate.

It all depends on the person. Are they super rare and insanely collectible? Yes. I didn't like the black-on-black look at all, though, so I sold my set on eBay.
Now don't get me wrong, the concept of a black-on-black planeswalker is awesome. These cards were just poorly made, however. The black matte over the card dulls out all the text, to the point where you can barely read it unless you hold it up to the light. And the underlying colors for each planeswalker are quite dull, they just don't "pop". Moreover, my set, like most sets, had what looked to be fraying on the left edge of the cards, like the sheets weren't centered properly when cut or the blades used weren't sharp enough on one side. I think that, for a product of such an insane limited nature, Wizards Quality Control could have done a better job with how the finished product turned out.
I had some black on black checkered vans, with the screen printed checks having a more glossy texture than the black fabric, and the effect was awesome! These cards are the same, gloss black on flat black. It comes across nicely on the physical ones I have seen.

Nope. Until mid next year, which means probably until just after GP New England.
It only says at Legion run GPs. You can assume it will be all GPs, and it might be, but it does not say all GPs.
