The Scene Box Final Fantasy IX The Siege of Alexandria is a collector's box designed for fans of Final Fantasy IX as much as for Magic: The Gathering players. Offered here in its English edition, it brings together a selection of specially treated cards whose artwork, placed side by side, recreates one of the game's most memorable scenes: the Siege of Alexandria. A genuine card diorama, sitting right at the crossroads of collector's piece and playable game material.
🏰 An iconic Final Fantasy IX scene, made of cards
The whole concept of this Scene Box rests on six foil borderless cards (no border, glossy finish) that, once aligned, draw the fresco of The Siege of Alexandria. You'll find the assault on the kingdom of Alexandria, with cards such as Vivi's Persistence, Search for Dagger, Judgment of Alexander, Mega Flare, Brilliant Wings and Amarant Coral. Each illustration is a fragment of the picture: on its own, it's a beautiful card; brought together, it's a whole scene from Final Fantasy IX coming to life before your eyes. That's the real charm of the Scene Box format: you collect, you play, and above all you display a powerful moment of the game rather than a single isolated card.
📦 The exact contents of the box
The box is built to combine display and play. Inside, you get the 6 foil borderless scene cards, fully playable in Magic, along with 6 art cards that reproduce the same illustrations with no text and no rules frame — the purely decorative version. Add to that 3 Play Boosters from the Final Fantasy set to open, plus a cardboard display easel to set the fresco up like a mini poster. You therefore end up with two complete sets of visuals: the foil versions with game text, and the art versions reserved for display.
🎮 A Magic × Square Enix set
This Scene Box belongs to the Magic: The Gathering — Final Fantasy set, a Universes Beyond set born from the official collaboration between Wizards of the Coast and Square Enix. This crossover brings the heroes, summons and locations of the saga into the Magic universe — from Cloud to Sephiroth, from the Chocobo to the Moogles, by way of Bahamut and Ifrit. To take the full measure of the collaboration, check out the official Final Fantasy set page at Wizards. On the Final Fantasy IX side, the whole imagination of the kingdom of Alexandria, of Vivi and of princess Dagger is captured in card form.
💎 Who it's for: collector and player
If you're a collector or a Final Fantasy fan, the Scene Box is first and foremost a display piece: the fresco mounted on its easel sits perfectly on a shelf, a cabinet or a desk, and the text-free art versions deliver a polished poster-like look. If you're a player, the six scene cards remain 100% playable: their colors (white, red, green) slot naturally into Commander decks in Naya colors, and the 3 Play Boosters extend the joy of opening packs. A hybrid object, then, that speaks to both profiles without compromise. It's also a perfect gift idea for anyone who grew up with Final Fantasy IX and is discovering Magic, or the other way around.
