this is.. expensive. they tested the waters with 75$ for Commander's Arsenal, then 100$ for DD: Anthology and now 150$ for this. I wonder how limited this is going to be
So a product with a massively inflated price and nothing but reprints. I've been hoping for a new Planechase product, but I sincerely expect this to flop horribly and kill our odds of future Planechase sets entirely.
I was at a store not too long ago that was selling every Planechase card for $4 each. This seems like a much better deal...guess I should get my pre-order in.
.... I swear the cards in those decks better be amazing to justify that. If it was just all the planechase cards for like 50 id be behind that, but for 150 not a chance.

SonofaBith - Wizards was so excited about making the packaging for Modern Masters 2 recyclable, they decided to make most of the rares and all but 1 of the UC's recycle-bin ready too. Convenient!
Huh, I was thinking it would be a great time to start collecting planechase planes, but not like this. I only have 2 decks' worth that I started playing around with my cube. But Helllllllllll no am I paying $150 for it.
They'll probably put Chaos Reigns in it, that has the Maelstrom Wanderer and two Shardless Agents which are all around $20 on the market, but that's still a big pill to swallow.

It says the decks are the most recent ones (2012),
so it will have Baleful Strixx2 and Shardless Agentx2, among other things.
That's probably better value, but I would have preferred the original decks as I missed that product.

There are 86 planar cards (according to the WotC info), That would be 40 planes from PlaneChase 09, 40 planes and phenomenons from PlaneChase 12 plus 6 more. There's certainly Tazeem here.
As for the product itself, well, I guess I will really need to convince my friend to split the costs and decks. I weren't playing at the time of PlaneChase release, but happened to play few games of this mode and boy, have I liked it
Yup, 86 would mean all of them, including Tazeem and the other promos. 40 from the original, 40 from 2012, 5 promos for the original -- Tazeem, Celestine Reef, Horizon Boughs, Mirrored Depths, Tember City), and 1 promo for 2012 (Stairs to Infinity). That makes 86.
Having all Planechase cards make me want to get this, but this shouldn't be $150. DD:Anthology was $100 with 8 decks and this has basically 5 decks (4 plus all the planechase cards). I have all of the 2012 plane cards, but I always wanted the rest of them.
No matter what though this should be $100, at most.
i can't find people interested in playing planechase.
support has been nonexistent since planechase 2.
how about instead of this ***** pile of a product you rethink your support for this product? maybe instead of a half assed released whenever you feel like it do something like a precon at the end of each block. include 8 planes that feature locations from that block, 1 old location, and 1 preview of the next block. then make two precons featuring themes from that block set to showcase how awesome it was. eliminate duel decks in favor of this. kill all the birds, with one stone.
or maybe i'm just drunk and crazy. lets go with that.

Duel Deck Anthology didn't have any new art, this won't either.
