The Disney Lorcana Starter Decks contain a deck to get you started in Lorcana, along with a rule book of the game and counters.

Pros
  • Includes a booster pack to reinforce the deck.
  • It features two foil cards of the characters in the display box.
  • It has three different versions to suit your characters and deck style preference.
Cons
  • Decks are limited in potential unless more cards are acquired.

Best Buy is prepping things early, as it is the only significant retailer already placing its listing for the card game. There are multiple options to select for sealed products, and the prices and release dates are also confirmed. With its accessible prices and the security of buying Lorcana from a company that can be trusted, Best Buy guarantees that you get your products without any chance of resealing or trouble.

It becomes a question of getting it early versus getting it cheaper, with TCGplayer offering the former and big stores providing the latter. If you can patiently wait a few weeks after release, getting your cards from Best Buy, Amazon, or Target can save you a lot of money. On the other hand, if you wish to jump into the action as soon as possible, TCGplayer has you covered.

You can also get the cards from both sites, as singles are sold on TCGplayer and sealed products on the other stores, a combination can get you the cards early, at an accessible price, and the singles you need to improve your deck of choice. It all comes down to your preference and how you feel about Lorcarna.

TCGplayer Takes Center Stage

23-PSA More Disney Lorcana Stock Is Coming

Lorcana comes out in September for big stores like Amazon, Best Buy, and Target. However, game stores will start selling and delivering cards on August 18th, making it vital to know your sites.

TCGplayer is looking to be at the forefront of the Lorcarna storm, from individual packs to boxes or individual cards. You can already go to the site and see a massive list of products and singles to buy during the presale, and if you have been reading articles online, you might already have a decklist that you need to complete.

Your purchases also have protection if anything goes wrong, and you can customize the delivery to suit your preference.

What About Disney? Does Disney Sell Lorcarna?

Yes, they do. Disney is selling the product in their store shopDisney, but they will also sell the cards as sealed products in their parks. So if you plan a Disney park trip, you can get two birds with one stone and get the ultimate Disney experience.

While Disney is selling the product, it is a mixed bag. Like the big stores, the official shopDisney will release the cards on September 1st, while the parks will jump ahead and start selling on August 18th. There is also no way of knowing whether all parks will feature Lorcana packs or if it will be a select few, so keep that in mind if you plan to buy directly from Disney.

When it comes to other games stores, they stay caught up too. Retailers will be selling the card game in August, and one example of it can be GameStop. Since the store is popular and easy to find, GameStop can be an easy way to walk in and get cards as soon as possible –assuming no colossal line is forming in the middle of the night.
