VTuber Turlayon & Reporter Token Series
If you are a fan of Magic: The Gathering (MTG) and anime culture, there is a unique crossover you need to know about. Recently, a very special set of custom tokens has been making waves in the community: the Turlayon & Reporter Official “Second Wave” (第二弹) Merch.
What are these tokens?
These are not average official Wizards of the Coast tokens. They are high-quality, “Fan-made” custom tokens created for two popular Chinese VTubers (Virtual YouTubers) on Bilibili: Turlayon (图拉扬) and Reporter Official (记者Official).
In the world of MTG, players love to personalize their decks. Using “Waifu” or Anime-style tokens to represent Soldier, Treasure, or Zombie tokens is a huge trend, and this specific collaboration is one of the most polished examples on the market.
Why are they special?
- High-End Art: The illustrations are professional-grade, featuring the VTubers in fantasy settings that fit perfectly onto a Magic playmat.
- The “Second Wave”: This is the second release (Vol. 2). The first series sold out quickly and is now a collector’s item. This new set features updated art and different token types.
- Niche Appeal: It mixes the strategy of MTG with the massive world of Virtual Idols.
Extreme rarity
These tokens are very difficult to find outside of mainland China. Here is why they are so rare:
- Limited Production: They are produced in small batches for the VTubers’ specific fanbase.
- Regional Exclusive: They are primarily sold on Chinese platforms like Bilibili Mall or Taobao.
- No Global Shipping: Most official sellers do not ship internationally, meaning Western collectors often have to use “shopping agents” or buy them at a high markup on the secondary market.
For a collector, owning a set of Turlayon & Reporter tokens is a massive “flex” at your local game store. They are rare, beautiful, and show a deep connection to the global MTG subculture.
If you see these in a trade binder, grab them while you can—once they are gone, they rarely come back!
