Is the MTG Star Trek Collector Booster Worth It?

Short answer: At MSRP ($37.99 a pack), a Star Trek Collector Booster is a fair buy if you want the signed headliner cards and the Collector-only foils. At today’s TCGplayer prices it’s hard to justify: about $64 for a single pack and $565 for a 12-pack box, before a single card has a real market price. Most people should buy a Play Booster Display or a Draft Night, which includes one Collector Booster, and pick up chase singles after the November 13 release.

What do you get in a Star Trek Collector Booster?

Each Collector Booster has 15 cards, and a box has 12 packs. Every pack includes:

• 1 traditional foil rare or mythic
• 1 non-foil extended-art rare or mythic
• 2 rare or mythic Booster Fun cards
• 1 foil rare or mythic Booster Fun card
• 5 traditional foil commons, 3 traditional foil uncommons, 1 foil uncommon or common and 1 traditional foil basic land
• 1 art card or traditional foil double-sided token

That’s 5 rares or mythics per pack and 60 in a box, compared with at least one per Play Booster.

What can you only get in Collector Boosters?

• Signed headliner cards: 7 different cards, about 250 copies of each, hand-signed by the Star Trek actors. That’s roughly 1,750 worldwide.
• Traditional foil stardates cards: the 30 stardates reprints, including Khan, Engineered Evil (a Sheoldred, the Apocalypse reprint), only come in foil here.
• Surge foil LCARS and Classic Enterprise cards: including surge foil versions of all 10 LCARS shock lands.
• Non-foil Scene Box scene cards: the cards from the two Scene Boxes, in non-foil.

How much is a Star Trek Collector Booster box?

Box prices are already falling: the cheapest box listing was about $657 on October 13 and is $565 now. Expect more movement once stores open their allocations on November 13.

What do you need to pull to break even?

At $565 a box, each pack costs about $47. With five rares or mythics per pack, those cards need to average about $9.40 each just to break even, before counting the commons and uncommons.

Today’s single prices don’t tell you much yet. Most Star Trek singles have only one to three listings, so a $49.99 LCARS shock land or a $239.99 Khan is an early ask, not a market price. Like most sets, many of these cards will sell for less once thousands of boxes are opened. We’ll redo this math with real sales after release.

Is Draft Night or the Beam Me Up Bundle a better way to get one?

• Draft Night is the best deal right now. At $92, it’s under its $119.99 MSRP and comes with 12 Play Boosters and one Collector Booster, so you get a signed-card chance plus a full draft for four.
• The Beam Me Up Bundle only makes sense near MSRP. At $99.99 you’d get 8 Play Boosters, a Collector Booster and 2 schematic promo cards. At $134.55 it costs more than a Draft Night with fewer packs.

Should you buy Star Trek Collector Boosters?

• Yes, at or near MSRP, if you want the Collector-only foils and a shot at a signed card. Ask your local game store about its allocation.
• Not at $565 a box before release. You’re paying about $110 over MSRP for cards with no real prices yet.
• If you want one specific card, wait for singles. Prices usually settle a few weeks after release, once boxes are opened.
• If you just want to play, a Play Booster Display costs about $4.45 a pack. See our Star Trek pull rates guide.

What to skip

• Single Collector Boosters at $64. That’s $26 over MSRP for one pack.
• Buying on early single prices. One-listing asks aren’t values.
• The Beam Me Up Bundle at $134 or more. Draft Night gets you more for less.
