The Special Guest cards are a new addition to Magic: The Gathering releases and can be found in the Special Guests set with a (SPG) set code, whereas the Ravnica: Clue Edition cards are part of the exclusive set Ravnica: Clue Edition (CLU).
Q: Why can’t I list the Buy-A-Box promo, Wojek Investigator (Extended Art)?

- If the card was previously printed as a foil-only Mystery Booster Retail Exclusive, it will not be added to The List Reprints (this would separate printings of the same card in the catalog) - The non-foil printings will not be listable until release day (February 9, 2024), and cannot be presold.
Cards from The List can be found in the below locations for Murders at Karlov Manor:

This is because the cards are sorted into sets based on where the card could FIRST be located. As there is no difference between the versions that are in ALL previous Promo Packs, inventorying the items where they FIRST appear helps keep new items more orderly.
