Somehow, Dungeon Boosters Returned (+other new stuff at TGP!)
The friendly folk at The Gathering Place do not fear what lies beneath, it’s impossible for us to dig too deep, and a new set of products has emerged from the dark depths of the Distro Dungeon!
Dungeon Boosters are back, and now accompanied by a shinier, fancier option! Pokémon $5 packs have been so successful, we’ve put in work to create a more luxurious, more substantial $10 option! We’ve also put together some WotC-era Pokémon cards in a Vintage PokéPack for anyone looking to open up a heavy hit of Pocket Monsters fueled nostalgia!
The best part is, this is only the first wave! There’s more on the way, hitting TGP shelves in the near future. We’ve been working on these for a while, and we couldn’t be more stoked to finally get them to you.
The $10 Dungeon Boosters are accompanied by a $25 “Dungeon Collector Booster” variant. The original Dungeon Booster is pretty much unchanged from it’s previous configuration: it’s still 10+ cards taken from the Distro Dungeon’s Indiana Jones-esque stacks of Magic: The Gathering, cards that are incredible cool and rad and fun but don’t quite always make it to TGP inventory proper. You never know what you’re gonna get in a Dungeon Booster!
MP playables, promos, The List reprints, foreign cards, there’s all kinds of stuff in there. Cards from literally every set of MTG ever printed, you never know what you’re gonna find in the Dungeon — or in a Dungeon Booster!
The Dungeon Collector Booster variant is the same deal, the same box of metaphorical chocolates, except now it’s slightly more luxe: foils as often as possible, special art treatments, weirder printings, and a smattering of nice playables that might be a little too scuffed to sell in the case, but they still deserve to be sleeved up and hit tables in decks!
The classic $5 Pokémon Mystery Booster Pack from TGP is staying the same as it ever was, and it’s still $5. But enough people have been asking for an evolution we put together two potential options: a $10 Ultra Mystery Booster Pack and a Vintage PokéPack!
10 commons and uncommons, 5 reverse holofoils, 5 rare or promo holofoils, plus two or more Ultra Rares, the Ultra Mystery Booster pack has the same basic structure as its $5 counterpart, but a selection of bigger hits packed in along with more potential for bonus cards, treatments, and more!
When it comes to Pokémon, though, some people simply prefer the classics. The first generation. If that’s you and you’ve got a hankerin’ for WotC-era Pokémon cards, the new Pokémon Vintage Pack has fifteen classics cards from 2003 and before, with a guaranteed holo in every pack!
They’re on the bar at The Gathering Place this week, they’ll be there for as long as they last, and the Distro Dungeon will keep doing its best to get more cool stuff out of our treasure trove and into yours!
Avatar: The Last Airbender [x] Magic: The Gathering at TGP
It’s finally here! It’s happening!
The long-awaited collaboration, the leaked, teased, talked-about and all but inevitable crossover! Best of all, it looks like it’s going to be a BANGER of an MTG set!
We’ll be selling all the product we can while also making sure we’ve got enough set aside to run tournaments and associated prizing. Hopefully we’ll have some left over for next week’s FNM for anyone who can’t make it out for prerelease weekend, but that mostly depends on demand and distribution numbers.
Sealed TLA product will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis in-person only at The Gathering Place. No reservations, no preorders, and you’re actively encouraged to call the shop directly day-of for any questions you may have regarding availability. (shop phone #: (984) 999-4548)
Of course, an MTG set release weekend is mostly about one thing: sealed tournaments.
For Avatar specifically, theme prerelease kits are returning for each of the Bending styles/nations. Players will be given a prerelease kit at random! If you were born into the world of ATLA, you wouldn’t get to choose your bending. Why would this be any different?
There’s a full slate of weekend events at The Gathering Place from Friday to Sunday, so here’s the rundown:

Commander Precons, Online Inventory and More!
Updates from The Gathering Place, specifically the product-on-the-website side of things!
It’s been soft-launched in the ask-staff section of our Discord server already, but it’s high time everybody knew the answer to a specific and often-asked question: “what MTG Commander precons do you have in stock?”
Thanks to diligent work on behalf of TGP’s own Preston, literally every single Commander precon available for purchase at The Gathering Place is now listed in online inventory! It’s searchable, it’s priced, it’s easy to look through and maintained regularly! It’s very cool, and we should all be grateful to Preston for his effort! Praise him! Praise be to Preston! Look upon his works, ye mighty, and despair!
Also, in regards to online inventory – TGP shop, in-store kiosk – there’s been some significant additions made! Final Fantasy singles may be of particular note, but there’s a bunch of new inventory, freshly added! Click here to check out the online inventory!
The Gathering Place also wishes to formally announce the availability (and Commander League legality) of Urza’s Saga ($250) and Urza’s Legacy ($100) packs! They’re headed out with TGP’s mobile division for the booth at Greenville [UNPLUGGED]: TCG & Collectibles Convention this weekend, but whatever comes home is up for grabs.
Finally, as far as what’s available in store and online goes, One Piece preorders for the new hotness are live on the TGP online shop! Give it a look, if you’re interested in securing The Legacy of The Masters for your own!
More of a Spider-Man MTG set enjoyer? Those are up for preorder as of right now, too!
There’s also still some Gundam starter decks in stock in-store! They’re $20, they’re very cool, and it really feels like the Gundam TCG is off to a strong start.
Thanks for reading, we’ll see you around, have a great rest of your week!
GUNDAM LANDS AT THE GATHERING PLACE
WE ACTUALLY GOT GUNDAM

and not just a little, either! We’ve got enough to hold a full release event!

We’ve got packs, starter decks, the works! $30 entry per player gets you a deck, plus four packs, and three rounds worth of cutting-edge TCG action with Bandai’s hot new entry into Gundam, games and TGP tournaments!
Will we also have some boxes and decks available for sale outside the tournament?
YES WE WILL!
SEE YOU THERE!
