29 New Cards from Magic’s TMNT Set: A Shell-Shocking Introduction

Let’s check out the new cards! There are 29 brand-new cards designed just for this TMNT set. Each one is full of colorful art, clever gameplay, and fun references to TMNT episodes, toys, and comics.

★ The Fab Four: Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael & Michelangelo

At the heart of the set are the four famous turtle brothers. Each boosts different styles of play:

🟦 Leonardo, Leader in Blue – Great at defending and helping you draw more cards. He’s all about smart moves.
🟪 Donatello, Tech Genius – Helps your other artifact cards work better, and gives you cool tools.
🟥 Raphael, Hot-Headed Bruiser – Hits hard and fast. Great for aggressive players.
🟧 Michelangelo, Wildcard Warrior – Creates big, wild board states and loves having fun with chaos.

Each turtle is legendary and can be your Commander, making every game feel different depending on who you pick.

★ Allies and Mentors

The set also gives love to the turtles’ best friends:

🐀 Master Splinter, Guiding Sensei – Boosts your team and helps you find ninja cards.
📺 April O’Neil, Channel 6 Reporter – Gives you better top-deck draws.
🏑 Casey Jones, Street Vigilante – Gives bonuses for attacking with a full group.

These are the perfect support characters to make your turtle team stronger and more fun to play.

★ Roadblocks and Archenemies

Of course, every hero needs a villain! This set brings back some of TMNT’s biggest and baddest enemies:

🥷 Shredder, Ruthless Strategist – Messes with your opponent’s plans in sneaky ways.
🐗 & 🐏 Bebop & Rocksteady – Strong but clumsy. They bring humor and power.
🧠 Krang, Multiverse Schemer – A tricky card that deals with unusual game areas like the exile zone.

The bad guys in this set aren’t just fun to look at—they’re tough challenges in battle!
