35 Star Trek cards are in our data so far; the Star Trek spoilers list adds each one as TCGplayer lists it, and the release calendar has every upcoming set.

| Commander Deck (four) | US$74.99 a deck | A ready-to-play 100-card deck: a traditional foil face commander with borderless art and 99 non-foil cards, 32 of them new to Magic, plus 10 double-sided tokens, a reference card and a deck box. |
| Collector's Edition Commander Deck (four) | US$159.99 a deck | Each of the four decks in surge foil: the face commander, the other 99 cards (32 of them new to Magic) and the 10 double-sided tokens (surge foil on one side), with a reference card and a deck box. |
| Prerelease Pack | None published | 6 Play Boosters, 1 traditional foil rare or mythic rare, a deck box and a spindown die: what you play with at a prerelease event. Wizards publishes no MSRP for it. |
The MSRPs are Wizards' suggested US prices from its Collecting Star Trek article of 14 July 2026 (read 16 October 2026). Wizards gives no MSRP for a sealed box or case of boosters, and an MSRP is not what stores charge: pre-order prices are set by each store, in each market's own currency.
The four Commander decks are Federation Fleet, Landing Party, Klingon Fury and We Are the Borg; what is known about each is in the Star Trek Commander decks guide.
Signed cards, stardates, LCARS and the other special cards
Wizards lists five kinds of special card in Star Trek boosters:
- Signed Headliner cards: 7 different cards, about 250 copies of each, hand-signed by the actor who played the character (Captain James T. Kirk and Captain Kathryn Janeway among them). They are found only in Collector Boosters, of any language, and are always in English.
- Stardates cards (SDS): 30 well-known reprints with Star Trek art: Sheoldred, the Apocalypse becomes “Khan, Engineered Evil”. Non-foil in Play and Collector Boosters; traditional foil only in Collector Boosters.
- LCARS frame cards: 29 cards and all 10 shock lands in the frame of the Enterprise's computer screens. Non-foil and traditional foil in Play and Collector Boosters; surge foil only in Collector Boosters.
- Classic Enterprise cards: 24 cards in the style of the vintage Star Trek movie posters. Non-foil and traditional foil in Play and Collector Boosters; surge foil only in Collector Boosters.
- Scene cards: 25 borderless cards across four scenes, whose art runs across several cards, in Play and Collector Boosters (non-foil and traditional foil). The two Scene Boxes hold six more each, whose non-foil versions are in Collector Boosters.
With roughly 250 copies of each signed card, opening Collector Boosters to find one is a lottery, not a plan. Of the reprints, Wizards singles out the shock lands: all ten are in the main set, and Scryfall lists each in the regular frame and in the LCARS frame.
10 shock land printings from TRK are in our data so far, in collector number order. The TCGplayer market price is in US dollars; the last column is the cheapest listing we track in the United States, and a dash means no store lists it there yet.

Which Star Trek product should you buy?
- To play Commander straight away: one of the four Commander decks.
- To chase signed cards or surge foils: Collector Boosters are the only source, and with about 250 copies of each signed card, treat them as a lottery.
- To try a Collector Booster without buying a box: the Beam Me Up Bundle includes one, with eight Play Boosters and two of its eight schematic promo cards.
- To play with the set at a table of friends: Draft Night, a four-player Pick-Two Draft in one box.
- For particular cards, such as a shock land: buying the single is usually cheaper than opening packs for it, and singles usually settle a few weeks after release. How concentrated a set's value is explains why.
- As a display piece: a Scene Box, whose six foil cards make one picture on the included easel.
To compare against boxes of sets already out, see Magic booster box prices and the cheapest booster boxes. We do not forecast prices, and nothing here says a price is about to rise.

Frequently asked questions
When does MTG Star Trek release?
On 13 November 2026 for tabletop Magic, according to Wizards of the Coast's Star Trek product page and its Collecting Star Trek article. The same article lists prerelease events from 6 to 12 November 2026 and the MTG Arena release on 10 November 2026.
Is Star Trek legal in Standard?
Yes. Wizards' Collecting Star Trek article says the main set, TRK, is legal in all formats. The Commander deck cards (TRC) and the stardates cards (SDS) are legal in Commander, Legacy and Vintage, and a reprint stays legal wherever its earlier printings already were.
What is in a Star Trek Collector Booster?
Fifteen cards, per Wizards: five traditional foil commons, three traditional foil uncommons, a foil common or uncommon, a traditional foil basic land, a traditional foil rare or mythic rare, a non-foil extended-art rare or mythic rare, two Booster Fun rares or mythic rares, a foil Booster Fun rare or mythic rare, and an art card or a traditional foil double-sided token.

Is there a Star Trek Beginner Box?
No. One was announced, but an editor's note on Wizards of the Coast's Collecting Star Trek article says its details were removed because the product was cancelled.
Can I buy Star Trek before release day?
At a game store, possibly: Wizards Play Network's page for the set says WPN stores can begin selling the set's products during prerelease week, 6 to 12 November 2026. Pre-orders from other stores ship from release day; the Star Trek pre-order page compares them.
