Once upon a time, in a faraway land, there lived a magical Easter unicorn. This unicorn was not like any ordinary unicorn that one might imagine. It had a shimmering white coat that sparkled under the rays of the sun. Its mane was a vibrant rainbow of colors, flowing gracefully as it galloped through the enchanted forest. Every year, on the day of Easter, this unique unicorn would come out of its hiding spot to spread joy and magic to all who crossed its path. It had the power to turn ordinary Easter eggs into beautifully decorated works of art with a mere flick of its horn.
DE: The heart of my collecting took place from 2005-2014. At the time I tried to find every card missing for my set or power and duals that I knew I could eventually trade for cards I still needed 10’s of. It was a very fun ride, but eventually I ran out of cards I could improve. I’ve had almost 2 decades of enjoying this collection, it’s someone else’s turn to get to enjoy these. Many of these 1 of 1 iconic cards haven’t changed ownership in over 15 years, and after this sale they might not be on the market for another 15!
The raw supply to grade has pretty much dried up for Alphas, so this is not quite a once in a lifetime set of auctions but depending on who buys them, it might be the last time some of these are available for sale. Hipsters of the Coast was able to catch back up with Edwards during the auction, and dig a little deeper into this most recent offering and dually record-breaking sale.
It had the power to turn ordinary Easter eggs into beautifully decorated works of art with a mere flick of its horn. The eggs would be adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, mesmerizing all who laid their eyes on them. As the magical Easter unicorn trotted through the forest, it left a trail of pastel-colored flowers in its wake.
With a Black Lotus sold at $500k, Magic: The Gathering hits a new level
An alpha Black Lotus, the most infamous Magic: The Gathering card ever produced, was sold at auction on eBay for $511,100. Organized by trading card investment firm PWCC, it's the first single Magic CCG card to sell for over half a million dollars at open auction. Other collectible card game cards may have sold for more, usually unique single-printing cards, but if they did there's no public record of it. Past Alpha Black Lotus cards have gone for as much as $250k.
To top it off, the case is signed by now-deceased Magic artist Christopher Rush, who painted the art for the card. Rush's artwork set the tone for not just the first Magic set, but for the series as a whole. He died in 2016.
The Alpha series of Magic cards are the very first set ever printed, in 1993. It's infamous as a powerful card, the most powerful in the first set of cards, and has been banned from play for years. Only 1,100 copies of the Alpha Black Lotus ever existed, with many lost to time or wear, and this one is of exceptional quality. It was graded a 10 by PSA, one of the most respected valuation services in collectible card games. The auctioneer, PWCC, said that the card was “by all counts the single finest Alpha Black Lotus we’ve had the pleasure of brokering."
It's a wild ride in terms of the collectibles world, and it's more proof than ever that nerd stuff has taken over the world. Black Lotus' rarity practically ensures that it's going to remain, for as long as Magic remains, the most valuable CCG trading card ever printed for sale. I'll update you when we hit $750k and a cool million, respectively.

Reviews for "Embark on a Whimsical Journey with a Magical Easter Unicorn"
1. Emma - 2/5 - I was really looking forward to "Magical Easter Unicorb" but I found it to be quite disappointing. The story was predictable and lacked depth. The characters were also one-dimensional and didn't evoke any emotional connection. The animation was average at best and the soundtrack was forgettable.
