Maze of Ith Judge Promo

bl4h · 03-23-2009, 06:41 PM

Update: Now on ebay! A local dealer is selling it for me on his account. Lot number 130296449188. Go bid!

Upon opening my mail a couple days ago, I received a package from wotc. Inside I found a letter to the tune of, Thanks for being a judge! To my delight I found a card inside. To my surprise I found the following card:

The artists are Zoltan Boros and Gabor Szikszai.

Can anyone tell me if there are other copies of this promo released? I've looked on ebay, ssg, the wotc website and google images, and I've asked everyone I know and no ones has ever seen this promo. It'd be sweet if I was the only one in the world with a copy ^^.

Edit: Much less blurry image now, will get a scan of it soon
Edit: NEW PICS! bigger and more detailed!
Edit: One, near perfect, fantastic scanned image, perfect size and clarity. Deleted the older, big and ugly images.

I don't think judge promo's are going to affect what is in the FTV:exiled since there's already a judge promo balance, and that's the only card confirmed to be in the FTV.

yeah but they are not going to release a judge promo and a special box set with the same card that is the judge promo at the same time. Judge balance was a long time ago, thats what makes it ok.

Wow, I'm normally a fan of the old card frames, but that card looks really, really nice.

I'm impressed.

So a maze of ith judge promo is easier to get than a balance judge promo? They're both very lofty to obtain and should never affect it's chances to being released publicly. Wotc also don't have a problem with having multiple alternate art promos of the same card. See Jace berelen.

Sweet Damning Christmas! Even with the blurry images that is beautiful! Now we need a stock image of it so we can see it clearly.

Yet again, the judges get awesome promos.

*Jaw drops* Need to get one last for my playset, no rest, no mercy, no matter what!!!

My gosh that is sexy. Well done wotc, this is great.

bl4h · 03-23-2009, 07:03 PM

I took these pics with my iphone, which is normally good res but not at close range. im going to see if i can get a color scan for you guys some time tomorrow.

As for the new FtV discussion formenting here, I agree with releasethedogs. The only reasons I think multiple Jace promos exist is because 1, wotc knows Jace is not a chase rare, and 2, its from a resent set. I don't think wotc will release multiple promos of older cards in the same time period. Why would I want to trade for the FtV Maze when the judge promo is so much nicer and worth more, or vise versa

EDIT: as well as having to commission multiple pieces of artwork

Awesome. Too bad you can play it pretty much in only one deck.

Username9001 · 03-23-2009, 07:09 PM

Gorgeus artwork. You lucky judges you.

Because the judge promo maze of ith is going to be worth a LOT more than the FTV maze of ith, and just because the judge maze would be released within the same time as the FTV maze doesn't mean that they will both be just as easy to obtain. Not everybody's a judge, but plenty of people can go down to their store and at least reserve their FTV: exiled. There's also 3 different arts for jace as well as balance, multiple commissions of art is not a problem for WotC.

Hot damn, I want one of those.

Oooh that's really pretty. I want a better picture! (try standing back a bit and using some lights)
