I've tried looking to see and find it myself but there's like 30 articles that show up and none of them answer my question. I just want that sexy mommy norn made by Junji Ito

Wizards usually releases a list of pack contents. About halfway through this one is the following:

"Junji Ito's Elesh Norn – In addition to [the other manga horrors], we had the opportunity to pair the ultimate manga Horror artist, Junji Ito, with the star of Phyrexia: All Will Be One, Elesh Norn. Together, they created this phenomenal Magic card:

All of the borderless manga cards can be opened in Set, Draft, and Collector Boosters. Additionally, there are select borderless manga cards available in Collector Booster Sample Packs that come with the Commander decks."

Just as an aside also, if you’re just digging through packs for a singular card, you’re always better-off financially just buying that card singularly.

Even if a set has a lot of what you’re after, buying singles will always work out more profitable.

I thought the only Elesh Norn in New Phyrexia was Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite

wallisface half the fun is the thrill of the hunt. Also the manga version is like the price of a box.

shadow63 yeah some people love the gamble - and if you have the disposable money to splash go for it. I personally know some people who financially should be doing things like feeding themselves and their family, but opt to buy packs instead. It adds to some of my overall loathing of gambling mechanics.

It might cost the price of a box, but this is in large-part going to be due to its rarity. The most likely scenario is you buy multiple boxes and not see a single one of these.

Also its worth adding that the price for this thing should lower over the next few weeks as the market settles. So depending on your patience it may be worth waiting till mid-March before deciding whether to buy the single, or several boxes-worth of boosters.
