On Tuesday, Wizards of the Coast unveiled the new sealed products for two upcoming sets. These sets are Secrets of Strixhaven and Marvel Super Heroes. This particular set of previews was revealed at the Nuremberg Toy Fair in Germany. With that, let's look at some of the revealed information, which includes a few preview cards!
<h2>Secrets of Strixhaven</h2>
For starters, let's look at Secrets of Strixhaven, out on April 24th. Wizards of the Coast revealed the following products at the Nuremberg Toy Fair. Some of these may seem obvious, but it's simply good to know that they're continuing:
<ul>
<li>Play Boosters (MSRP: $5.49 per pack)</li>
<li>Collector Boosters (MSRP: $26.99 per pack)</li>
<li>Draft Night (MSRP: $89.99)</li>
<li>Bundle (MSRP: $57.99)</li>
<li>Codex Bundle (MSRP: $89.99)</li>
<li>Commander Decks (MSRP: $49.99 per deck)</li>
</ul>
We expect you have a few questions. For one, what in the world is a Codex Bundle? And, how many Commander decks are featuring in MTGSOS? We can easily answer both of those questions for you!
The Codex Bundle, a similar product to Gift Bundles and the like, contains six Play Boosters, two Collector Boosters, and a Codex Booster. Like the Avatar: The Last Airbender Gift Bundles' innovation, the Codex Booster contains two cards out of a possible six in the following subset of cards:

While this group of cards isn't the most exciting subset of promos ever, the Talisman cycle and <a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Sol Ring" href="#" target="_blank">Sol Ring</a> are still used quite frequently in Commander decks across the board. And speaking of Commander decks...

<h3>Secrets of Strixhaven Commander Decks</h3>
There are going to be five Commander decks released alongside Secrets of Strixhaven. These decks are respectively themed after the five Houses of Strixhaven, a prestigious school of magic housed on the plane of Arcavios. More details are below:
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Lorehold Spirit

There is no confirmation that <a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Quintorius Kand" href="#" target="_blank">Quintorius Kand</a> will be a planeswalker commander in the Lorehold Spirit deck, but we'll surely find out soon!
<h3>MTGSOS Previews</h3>
There were a couple of cards previewed within Secrets. These previews also include one from the new iteration of the Mystical Archive. Let's take a look!

&nbsp;
Naturally, we'd like to know if the Japanese Foil Etched cards in this set's Mystical Archive are a bit more standout than the ones from Strixhaven proper. Again, we'll know when we see more from the set!
<h2>Marvel Super Heroes</h2>
This brings us to the next set in the queue. Marvel Super Heroes comes out on June 26th. It contains the following products (shown here with MSRP included):
<ul>
<li>Play Boosters (MSRP: $6.99 per pack)</li>
<li>Collector Boosters (MSRP: $37.99 per pack)</li>
<li>Bundle (MSRP: $69.99)</li>
<li>Gift Bundle (MSRP: $89.99)</li>
<li>Draft Night (MSRP: $119.99)</li>
<li>Scene Boxes (MSRP: $41.99)</li>
<li>Commander Decks (MSRP: $69.99 per deck)</li>
<li>Collector Commander Decks (MSRP: $149.99 per deck)</li>
<li>Jumpstart Boosters (MSRP: $6.99 per pack)</li>
<li>Beginner Box (MSRP: $34.99)</li>
</ul>
Considerably more expensive than the cards from Secrets of Strixhaven, Marvel Super Heroes continues some of the trends that other Universes Beyond products started, presumably based on licensing fees. But let's look at some of these products!
<a href="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/MTGMSH-commander-decks.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-174858" src="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/MTGMSH-commander-decks.jpg" alt="Marvel Super Heroes Commander precons." width="994" height="559" srcset="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/MTGMSH-commander-decks.jpg 1920w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/MTGMSH-commander-decks-300x169.jpg 300w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/MTGMSH-commander-decks-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/MTGMSH-commander-decks-768x432.jpg 768w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/MTGMSH-commander-decks-1536x864.jpg 1536w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 994px) 100vw, 994px" /></a>
There are four Commander precons for Marvel Super Heroes, each priced at a solid $69.99 apiece. The decks are as such:
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Avengers Assemble
<ul>
<li>Red/White/Blue</li>
<li>Characters pictured: Captain America, Nick Fury</li>
</ul>
</li>

</blockquote>
There are also Collector Commander decks for this set. They're the same cards as in the base decks, only included with a Surge Foil treatment. These collector-targeted decks have an MSRP of $149.99 each.
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
