A First Look at Outlaws of Thunder Junction
Welcome to the brand-spankin'-new frontier plane of Thunder Junction, where you can be the bad guy, plot daring heists, and ride off into the sunset. Arriving April 19, Outlaws of Thunder Junction is Magic's first Western-themed set where the stakes are high, the repercussions of the Phyrexian invasion are still felt, and the story around the strange Omenpaths continues to build.
The Omenpaths are open, and everyone's blowing into town to seek their fortune as an outlaw. Oko, the baddest outlaw of them all, is getting together a posse of the Multiverse's most wanted to pull off a heist of epic scale.
But, friend, this plane ain't big enough for all of us.
An ancient vault has been discovered in Thunder Junction, and it's rumored to hide untold riches and power. Everyone wants a slice of the pie, but Oko and his rip-roaring team aim to be the first inside.
Oko's son, Kellan, has at last tracked down his wayward father, but his schemes threaten to sweep Kellan into the role of a villain.
Outlaws of Thunder Junction is rife with outlaw-versus-outlaw conflict set against the arresting backdrop of frontier fantasy.
Breaking News Bonus Sheet and The Big Score
This just in: On a plane overrun with outlaws, crime is a way of life, and the Breaking News bonus sheet is full of crimes—a key mechanic across the set—and iconic reprints. You'll find them in Play Boosters and Collector Boosters, and exclusively in Collector Boosters you can open textured foil versions of Breaking News cards.

Where there are outlaws, there are wanted posters, and Outlaws of Thunder Junction has a passel of ne'er-do-wells featured in the wanted poster treatment found in Play Boosters and Collector Boosters.

Of course, there are borderless cards and extended-art cards.
Cards from The Big Score belong to a special subset with their own set symbol, set code, and frame (on select cards)—and they are Standard legal! The 30 mythic rares from The Big Score can also feature in the vault frame.

Exclusive to Collector Boosters, special raised foil cards with the vault frame can also be found.

In Play Boosters, Special Guests cards and cards from The Big Score (without their vault frame treatment) can appear in a dedicated slot.
Crimes, The Big Score, and so much more—it's dangerous to jump through the Omenpaths and find yourself in Thunder Junction. Just don't get lost out there.
