The Finisher

Prada has a new campaign for a handbag featuring Magic cards... We haven't been able to prove the truthiness of this ad's veracity, but if it is legit the Italian luxury fashion house is using the world's premier trading card game to help sell their Prada Women's Leather Bowling Bag, which, by the way, sells for $2,350 on their website. So this got me thinking. It's the Christmas season, shopping time. Still a week before Santa comes down your chimney to deliver sealed boosters to all the good little girls and boys. What other luxury products can Magic cross over with to help sell their wares?
