Wizards of the Coast expanded upon Universes Beyond sets within Magic: The Gathering through Warhammer 40,000 Commander preconstructed decks, paving the way for future IP collaborations like Doctor Who and Fallout.

Featuring four MTG Commander Precon decks, the Warhammer 40,000 Universes Beyond release was a resounding success for WotC. Each preconstructed deck contained 42 new cards, along with reprints. Unlike the upcoming release of Doctor Who Commander Precon decks, WotC had two versions of each preconstructed deck—one regular and one collector’s edition containing a Surge foil treatment. 

Rather than chasing high-priced MTG foil variants through booster packs, players only needed to purchase a collector’s edition Precon. WotC, however, returned to the booster pack foil chase for Doctor Who. Whether this decision will impact MTG single sales on the secondary market remains to be seen at time of writing. But it’s clear the two Commander Precon versions worked for the Warhammer 40,000 collector’s edition Precons, with prices maintaining their value months after the MTG set was released. 

Prices of MTG Warhammer 40,000 Commander decks are subject to change. All prices are based on secondary market values from TCGPlayer, Card Kingdom, and MTGGoldfish.
