# Splinter, Radical Rat Splinter represents the TMNT crossover's appeal to collectors seeking character-driven Magic cards. As a legendary creature, it anchors Commander decks for players who value thematic builds over pure power level. The rat master's mechanical identity matters less than its cultural significance—collectors appreciate owning Magic's interpretation of a beloved character. The foil variant typically draws interest from those completing premium versions of their decks, though the nonfoil remains the standard choice. Rarity alone doesn't drive demand here; rather, collectors value Splinter for its intersection of Magic and pop culture nostalgia. It's a card that appeals equally to MTG players and TMNT fans seeking crossover legitimacy.
