Leia Organa

Due in this week for Star Wars Legion ...


From Alderaanian diplomat to leader of the Rebel Alliance, Leia Organa’s legacy has been one of inspiration, heroism, self-sacrifice, and leadership. Along with Han Solo and Luke Skywalker, her actions directly led to the ultimate downfall of the Galactic Empire—so it’s only fitting that she takes her place in Star Wars: Legion as the Rebellion’s second commander, battling alongside Luke Skywalker.

Inside the Leia Organa Commander Expansion, you’ll find everything that you need to add Leia Organa to your army as a commander. A single unpainted, easily assembled miniature beautifully represents Leia Organa on the battlefield, while new upgrade cards allow you to customize how she is represented in the game. Finally, a hand of three new command cards lets you add a unique touch to your overarching strategies, bringing some of Leia Organa’s own unique tactics to your games. Releasing alongside the Fleet Troopers Unit Expansion, these two expansions promise new tactics for the Rebellion to employ in their struggles for freedom.

Guilds of Ravnica Accessories


Due in stock later this year will be Magic: The Gathering Guilds of Ravnica Accessories

These will be Deck Protector Sleeves, 100+ Deck Boxes and both two and one player playmats. Sleeves and boxes will be available in all guilds.

M19 Planewalker Decks

When the core set returns later this year, we will be getting a new format for the contents. M19 Planeswalker Decks, They will now be £9 and come with one booster (as opposed to £13 and two boosters, which is how non-core set PW Decks will continue to work). 

They have created five different decks for this set. Each is mono-color, and leans into the essential qualities of that color for its theme. As a result, players can dive into any color they're interested in, or pick based on the five exciting characters that have been selected to headline these decks.
