Star Wars: Unlimited

Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration Battle Decks

Pokémon’s product gallery page lists an October 30 launch at Pokémon Center and other retailers. Each deck has 60 foil cards, a deck box, a playmat and a coin. Each also has an exclusive illustration rare–style promo: Victini comes in the Espeon ex deck and Zeraora in the Umbreon ex deck.

Why it matters: The contents are fixed, so there’s no reason to pay over retail on day one. If you only want the Victini or Zeraora promo, wait until the singles market settles.

One Piece EB-05 and Gundam Stardust Trails [GD06]

Bandai releases two games on the same day. The English EB-05 Heroines Edition vol.2 page lists October 30, $4.99 per pack and 75+2 card types. It adds a new Nico Robin Leader, 6 types of SP cards and an alt-art card drawn by Kentaro Yabuki. The Gundam Card Game GD06 page lists Stardust Trails on October 30 at $4.99 for a 12-card pack, with 135+8 card types, including 12 Legend Rares, and cards from Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ and 0083: Stardust Memory.

Why it matters: EB-05 is an extra booster with a smaller card list than a main set, so plan any chase around the six SP cards and the Yabuki alt-art.

Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution—Delta Reign

Pokémon’s Delta Reign prerelease page confirms the expansion arrives November 6, 2026, with over 135 cards. Build & Battle Boxes have been on sale at select Play! Pokémon stores since October 24. Each box holds four Delta Reign booster packs, a 40-card ready-to-play deck and one of four foil promo cards. Pokémon says the boxes will also be sold at launch, and the set reaches Pokémon TCG Live on November 5.

Why it matters: Delta Reign has one fixed street date. Star Trek gives you a full week of prerelease events. If you can only do one thing on November 6, buy Delta Reign.

Magic: The Gathering | Star Trek

Wizards’ Collecting Star Trek article lists prerelease events November 6–12, MTG Arena on November 10 and the global tabletop release on November 13. MSRPs are $6.99 for a Play Booster, $37.99 for a Collector Booster, $74.99 for a Commander Deck, $159.99 for a Collector’s Edition Commander Deck, $69.99 for a Bundle and $99.99 for the Beam Me Up Bundle. There are four Commander decks: Federation Fleet, Landing Party, Klingon Fury and We Are the Borg. Each has 100 cards, including 32 new-to-Magic cards.

The set’s headline chase is seven different signed headliner cards. Wizards says there are fewer than 250 copies of each, which works out to fewer than 1,750 signed cards across the whole print run. They only appear in Collector Boosters (in any language, but the signed card itself is always English). Wizards says a signed headliner card appears in an extremely low quantity of Collector Boosters.

Why it matters: A $37.99 Collector Booster is not a realistic way to get a signed card. If you’re a Star Trek fan who wants a sure thing, a $74.99 Commander Deck has fixed contents.

One Piece OP-18 The Dominance of God

Bandai’s OP-18 product page lists an English release on November 20, 2026, at $4.99 per pack and 127+1 card types. The set covers Water Seven and the Holy Knights of God, and Saint Gunko and Saint Shamrock make their card game debut. Cards become tournament legal seven days after release in your region.

Why it matters: This is a main set, not an extra booster, so it’s the bigger One Piece buy of the two this window. If you already bought EB-05 on October 30, plan your budget for both.

Star Wars: Unlimited Icons 2027 Edition

Fantasy Flight’s Icons 2027 Edition page lists November 20, 2026. Icons is a mini-set of over 190 cards built around fan-favorite characters. Each 9-card pack has about 5 commons, 2 uncommons, 1 rare or legendary and 1 Hyperspace-foil card. Fantasy Flight says Icons packs cost less than standard set boosters but hasn’t listed a price on that page. The Starter Box has two 30-card decks led by Darth Vader and Leia Organa, and the 4-pack adds an exclusive Cassian Andor variant.

Why it matters: Icons is built for new and returning players, so it’s the lowest-commitment buy on November 20. The Starter Box pairs two pre-built decks with preset, non-randomized deckbuilding packs and a pair of Icons boosters.
