Malone’s drop includes Backstage Pass’s renamed cards that also feature his likeness in the illustration, and Post Malone: The Lands, which delivers five basic lands in the classic brown frame that all have small doodles by the rapper in the bottom half.

Secret Lairs sell a time-limited set of cards with alternate art treatments - often around a specific theme - from guest illustrators, and these are printed to demand before disappearing from their online store for good. Wizards of the Coast, publisher of the popular trading card game, announced the small run of reprints on its Weekly MTG Twitch stream alongside a glut of other premium products.
