Overview

The Hobbit is a Magic: The Gathering expansion set, released August 14, 2026 with 321 cards. Use the checklist below to track which cards you own, and scan any The Hobbit card with Tappr to read a Scryfall market estimate synced about every 24 hours.

Best for

  • players opening current product and singles buyers
  • people completing or pricing The Hobbit (321 cards, code hob)
  • singles buyers focused on Gleaming Splendor / Scryfall

Skip if

  • you will not check edition/treatment and still want “NM mythic” prices
  • you want a tiny master set — this product is wide; budget special frames separately

Common mistakes

On The Hobbit, the usual miss is week-one hype prices as permanent truth. Money still clusters around Gleaming Splendor / Scryfall; treating the whole list like one price tier is how people overpay bulk. Also: The Hobbit (2026, current Standard / premier) gets mixed into lots that are not the same product — match set code hob before the art.

What to check first

First: treatment (borderless, showcase, extended) and number. On Gleaming Splendor / Scryfall, do condition under light before grade talk. Then use the The Hobbit checklist for gaps — sealed is not a plan for the expensive row.
