Wizards of the Coast has partnered with the Toho Corporation for a series of cards featuring the Godzilla monsters in the next Magic: The Gathering set, Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths, and has revealed the full contents of the Collector Boosters for the set.
Nineteen Godzilla Series Monster cards will be produced, all but one a Godzilla monster-themed version of a card in the set, chosen for the best “flavor fit’ with the Godzilla monster, according to the announcement. The Buy-a-Box card only exists in its Godzilla Series Monster form. Sixteen of the 19 will be available in the U.S., while three are reserved for the Japanese series. The cards will be tournament-legal, played in the same way as their non-Godzilla analogue. Here's the list of cards:
- Anguirus, Armored Killer
- Babygodzilla, Ruin Reborn
- Biollante, Plant Beast Form
- Bio-Quartz Spacegodzilla
