Magic: The Gathering’s Lord of the Rings set is back in stock at Amazon. The retailer has Tales of Middle-earth Commander Decks for huge discounts compared to launch prices. The LOTR Commander Decks sold for $70 when the crossover set launched in June 2023, but Amazon is selling them for around $50 each. And if you’re also interested in the recently released Final Fantasy set, Amazon has the Final Fantasy Commander Deck Bundle for $175 (was $280), a new all-time low.
The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth Commander Decks:
The first three Commander Decks in the list above are shipped and sold by Amazon. Unfortunately, the fourth is currently sold out, but Amazon briefly had it in stock a couple weeks ago, so it’s worth checking the link just in case. Also, while Amazon normally doesn’t accept returns for trading cards, Riders of Rohan is listed as eligible for free returns.
Each Commander Deck comes with 100 Lord of the Rings-themed cards, including 20 unique cards you won’t find in any other Lord of the Rings MTG product. Commander Decks also include a foil-etched display card of the Commander on the box and a Collector Booster Sample Pack with two cards: one rare or higher Traditional Foil or special treatment card and one Traditional Foil special treatment common or uncommon card. You’ll also get the following accessories: deck box, 10 double-sided tokens, Helper card, Life Wheel, strategy insert, and reference card.
Tales of Middle-earth and other Lord of the Rings MTG cards are often only available via third-party resellers. This means prices tend to jump around quite a bit. While it’s not uncommon to find Scene Boxes for reasonable prices, Commander Decks can be a different story.

Tales of Middle-earth Scene Boxes are available for $39-$45 at Amazon. They are shipped by Amazon but are sold by resellers. The Scene Boxes launched with $41 price tags, so you won’t be overpaying if you pick one up. Each Scene Box includes: 6 Traditional Foil Borderless Scene Cards, 6 Art Cards, 3 Set Boosters, and a paper easel display.
2025 Magic: The Gathering Crossover Sets
Check stock at Amazon:
It’s already been a massive year for crossover sets in Magic: The Gathering. The Final Fantasy set became the best-selling set in MTG history before its June release. Many Final Fantasy MTG products remain difficult to find for normal prices, but you can get Commander Decks and the Starter Kit. Marvel superhero Spider-Man slings into the MTG universe on September 26. Like with Final Fantasy, preorders have mostly been sold out for months, but Amazon recently restocked the Spider-Man Play Booster Box. Rounding out the year of crossovers is Avatar: The Last Airbender on November 21. Preorders opened in August, and most products sold out within a few days. As of September 5, the Beginner Box and Jumpstart Booster Box are in stock.
