Isn't there only one or two slivers there that are in meathooks? Crystalline already has a promo foil running around, hibernation kinda got kicked out after m10 rules made it worse, so you're buying 2 of these for the promo muscle slivers?

It's MSRP because its not worth anything outside of crystaline sliver (kind of s stretch) muscle sliver and...?

there was an FNM Muscle too, so yeah, there's really no reason to buy this aside from 'just to have it'

Considering i currently own no foils, it gets me:

Winged
Muscle
Crystiline
Hibernation

You might as well thank Cardkingdom as well since they're doing it at 35.

What the hell do you mean by "this time"? This is a normal retail product like Garruk vs Lilliana, not a FTV.

I'm pretty sure that he says "this time" because they have been overpricing it for the last 3 months.

Actually, they over priced FTV because it's limited edition, same as this product.

So you are totally wrong, not a normal product, it's a limited edition print run of some old cards in foil... Sounds like FTV to me...

(although not AS limited as FTV, still, knowing SCG...)

It's not as limited as FTV, and the only new foil that could be sort of worthwhile is Winged Sliver. However, Meathooks is a bad deck at the moment and not much played. FTV: Exiled offered cards alot of decks need. I am curious however about the basic lands from this Sliver box. Does anyone have a picture of them?

I'm also wondering about the basic lands. If they were smart, they'd include Zendikar lands or something like that so people would snap this stuff up.

I admit, it's calling to the casual scrub in me to use this as a basis for a highlander deck.

Also, I could see some people wanting to pick up some of the slivers that already exist as promos because these have the new card layout. Although I like the old layout for stuff like Muscle Sliver and Winged Sliver, I always hated the look of the old gold Crystalline Sliver.

another major reason why this isn't as exciting as FTV; no new art.
