My LGS that I work at got brawl decks with the wrong commander in them. Anyone else have this happen?

neat. it's worth more sealed, even though it'd be interesting to see what actual deck is in it.

Seeing as it has the red box inside, that should be the knight's deck, as the proper one for kovold is green.
Slightly dubious though, as we can't see any of the packages seals it's not impossible that they just opened it and replaced the frontcard.

I haven't opened it. I was more wondering if this was a regular thing that's been coming up.

I've seen one or two posts of thees kind of packaging error for every commander set in the past few years. I don't think they sell for much of a premium, as it's too easy to fake them. Wotc will replace them, if you contact their support.

I got one like this too, except it was a Korvold deck with a Faeries topper.. gonna keep it sealed

True enough

Yeah people will pay out of the ass for this mispackaged

Which is kinda amusing given how easy it would be to repackage it in a way that even a collector couldn't tell it was unsealed.
Not ridiculously easy, mind you. Would take some specialty tools and lots of patience. But doable.

You'd be surprised at the methods people have to authenticate counterfeit misprints like that.

Is it possible without tearing apart the package to check the glue? Even then, there are chemicals that can restore the glue's original tackiness.

My sealed Faerie deck seems to have some sort of green funk trapped between the foil layer and the card. Either a bugger, glue or an actual bug.
Seems like there might be a few production issues.

Post to the misprint group and some weird degenerate will surely pay a big premium for that bug juice.

Hey, no kinkshaming over there.

It’s a funny anomaly. Nothing “degenerate” about that.

My alela had a big big ding on the top where the card is splitting a little, I hope wotc will replace ;-;

We had the exact same combination of box/commander in my LGS last night. Inside was just the regular knight’s charge deck. The guy got hooked up with a non-foil Syr Gwyn from someone’s collector booster pull so he managed to get the entire deck either way.

On another topic, what do you all actually do with the oversized display cards?
3
I haven't done it myself, but I've seen some people get them framed and stuff. They look cool as art pieces if nothing else.
3
In this case, that is not the oversized display card. That's the actual commander you're going to be sleeving up. Sometimes people make cool alters with them.

Oh, oops! I've never actually seen the brawl packaging in person
1
Post it to the misprints and oddities Facebook group, you'll probably get some hits.
2
Shows how little they actually care to support brawl as a format. Just a less fun Commander that makes you have to rotate with standard.

If you look at the target online site the pictures of the commander cards are all mixed up too with the names

That's a straight upgrade if you ask me.

Even Korvold’s parent said he could be whatever he wants to be. I believe he can be a knight if he wants it bad enough.
