Check out Zendikar’s Booster Art showing of some possible Planeswalkers and creatures:

Our next contestant seems angry about something, possibly the wind that’s messing up his carefully crafted hair.

Here’s someone, or should we say something that looks less angry but possibly even more dangerous.

And hey! Who’s this young lady? Haven’t we seen those goggles somewhere before?

Finally, we have a mysterious white-haired figure. You might want to click on the “YOU DECIDED!” link at the bottom of this page if you want to know more about him!

Of course, if you want to buy boosters, you’ll want to know what they look like when they’re all collected together in a display box. The answer is:

Planechase Rules Unveiled

MTG Blogger — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 07:15:25 +0000

Wizards has spilled the beans on the rules of casual multiplayer variant set Planechase:

What Is Planechase?
Planechase gives you everything you need to play Planar Magic, a new casual variant that sends you and your friends on a tour through the Multiverse. Each plane you visit—represented by a plane card—changes the nature of the battlefield. You never know how long you’ll stay or where you’ll go next, and the result is an ever-shifting race to exploit the unique nature of the plane you’re on … or to planeswalk away from a plane that your enemies can take advantage of!
