The most recent update to MTGA has a host of new cosmetics, one of which is three new MTG War of the Spark Japenese alternative-art card sleeves.
The stained-glass planeswalkers might be temporarily gone from the MTGA store, but in their place is three new alt-art Japanese illustrated card sleeves, making a total of eight available. While some in the MTG community are upset over the removal of the stained-glass planeswalkers, WotC has stated they will return.
