If you purchased any of the last Magic: the Gathering set Battle for Zendikar you helped Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro have the strongest launch of a Magic set according to ICv2 and Hasbro’s CEO Brian Goldner.  Magic is a strong product at the moment and I don’t think it will slow down any time soon.  Some of our friends are Magic players/collectors and we want to wish them a fun time at the tournaments or pickup games they play.

20th Anniversary for Pokemon

ICv2 is reporting that the Pokemon Company has purchased air time for a Pokemon commercial during Super Bowl 50.  This ad will kickoff the 20th Anniversary for Pokemon.  The Official Pokemon Channel on YouTube has begun streaming the below add, but it is unclear if the same ad will be the one airing during Super Bowl 50, I kind of think they would have a different one for that after spending that much money for air time.  The company is also declaring February 27th as Pokemon Day with several things happening.  Here is the link to ICv2 for more details: http://icv2.com/articles/news/view/33466/super-bowl-50-spot-kicks-off-pokemon-20th  Keep your eyes sharp and ears tuned in for special events during this year.  So to Pokemon fans and the Pokemon Company happy 20th Anniversary!
