Time for the disney recap:
Prince Charming - Cinderella (white)
Prince Ferdinand - Snow White (seems like a swamp thing)
The Beast - Beauty and the beast (green)
Prince Phillip - Sleeping Beauty (prolly blue)
red doesn't get a prince b/c red = barbarians.

Well that frog leg salad suddenly just explained the bulimia issue the princess had to work through.

Any set with a card named "Powerful Heave" showing a dude suplexing a bear is a winner in my book. (Sorry can't pull a pic now). Repeat, A DUDE SUPLEXING A BEAR!
I'm going to build a deck with nothing but cards named after fighting moves, i.e. Savage Punch, etc.

I liked the temporary translation of "bear suplex" myself.

I can feel with you... If only the lock wouldn't cost 10 mana.
I am pretty sure it will see play in Mono U Painter.

So what's with the alt art adventures? How do you get one of them instead of a normal adventure art?
Re: Throne of Eldraine Spoilers
@Charming Prince: I'm not feeling it. The utility is nice and all, but he's just a bear and the effects aren't really THAT strong. It certainly isn't a Knight of Autumn which can generate CA or become a 4/3. Maybe with Soulherder or Eldrazi Displacer for value gain, but even then, there should be better options than that.

Why can't we have a green walker that has no special abilties other than bruteforcing every threat with raw physical violence, whether it's punching Eldrazi or supplexing dragons?

They come in the more expensive collector's packs. It's a whole thing they're doing going forward from this set.

Main argument is past in flames.

PO says "target permanents you control". If the wishclaw resolved even with the po on the stack you wouldn't control it anymore. Making it an illegal Target. However this is easily rectified by changing the order here and activating the wishclaw, holding priority, then casting PO.

P/T isn't confirmed yet, but the ability is certainly an interesting one, especially with token generators like Bitterblossom or Ophiomancer.

This is not 100% correct. This is a deep dive, so let me give the tl;dr!
There are two types of packs now. Draft Booster Packs (which are rebranded Regular booster packs) and Collector Booster packs.
Here's what appears where!
DRAFT/REGULAR BOOSTER PACKS:
Mythic: Regular Planeswalkers, Foil Regular Planeswalkers, Alternate Art Planeswalkers, Foil Alternate Art Planeswalkers
Mythics/Rare/Uncommon: Regular Frame Adventure Cards, Alternate Frame Adventure Cards, Foil Regular Frame Adventure Cards, Foil Alternate Frame Adventure Cards (There are 2 Mythics, 5 Rares and 9 Uncommons with Adventure Frame)
Common: Regular Frame Adventure Cards, Foil Regular Frame Adventure Cards, Foil Alternate Frame Adventure cards (There are 14 Commons with Adventure Frame)
NOTE: Non-Foil *COMMON* Alternate Frame Adventure Cards do NOT appear in Regular Booster packs!
COLLECTOR PACKS:
Slot 1: Non-Foil Rare or Mythic with Extended Art. There are 10 Mythics and 48 Rares in the set that have extended art (All of the cards that aren't Adventures or Planeswalkers), and this is the only place where they appear in Extended Art
Slot 2: FOIL Rare/Mythic - *ANY* Rare or Mythic, any version can appear here. This includes all of the variants in a Regular booster, all of the regular foil versions of cards, *AND* the only place where foil Extended art cards (from Slot #1) appear.
Slots #3-11: Foil C/U - Any 9 Foil C/U from the set (including alternate-frame Adventure cards)
Slot #12-14: 3x Special-Frame non-Foil cards. This includes the 3 Planeswalkers, and all 30 Adventure cards. *THIS IS THE ONLY SLOT THAT HAS NON-FOIL ALTERNATE FRAME ADVENTURE CARDS*
Slot #15: 1x Non-Foil Ancillary card. This is any card that appears in a Brawl or Planeswalker deck, or the Buy-A-Box promo. *THIS IS THE ONLY SLOT THAT HAS A NON-FOIL PLANESWALKER DECK PLANESWALKER, NON-FOIL BRAWL COMMANDER, Or NON-FOIL BUY A BOX PROMO)
Slot #16: Foil token. This is the only way to get a foil token from Thrones. 19 of the 20 tokens will appear in this slot (The Garruk Emblem will not)
Hope this clears things up!
Super TL;DR
Mythic/Rare/Uncommon Alternate Frame adventure cards appear in regular Boosters in both Foil & Non-Foil versions.
Common Alternate Frame adventure cards appear in Foil in regular Boosters, but do NOT appear in non-foil in regular boosters!

WotC really knows how to make buying products excessively complicated...
