Description

@Psithief

The following tokens were never printed and so do not have official images.
To assist, you will need to provide a URL that allows hot-linking to the image.

  1. 0/1 Blue Plant Wall Creature token with Defender named Kelp, created by Wall of Kelp. (Homelands)
  2. */* Black Spirit Creature token created by Broken Visage. (Homelands)
  3. 1/1 Green Wolf Creature token with "Bands with other creates named Wolves of the Hunt" named Wolves of the Hunt, created by Master of the Hunt. (Legends)
  4. 0/1 Green Wall Creature token with Defender named Wood, created by Jungle Patrol. (Mirage)
  5. 3/3 Green Elemental Creature token created by Evil Comes to Fruition. (Archenemy)
  6. 4/6 Colorless Golem Artifact creature token created by The Iron Guardian Stirs. (Archenemy)

I haven't tested whether cards listed at mtg.onl can be hot-linked to.



More reported missing tokens or missing art:

  1. 2/2 White Unicorn Creature token, created by Blessed Sanctuary (Jumpstart) | Report
  2. 4/4 Red Devil Creature tokens with "Haste" and “When this creature dies, create a colorless Treasure artifact token with ‘{T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color.’”, created by Diabolical Salvation (2017 Heros of the Realm) | Report
  3. Inzerva, Master of Insights Emblem, created by Inzerva, Master of Insights (2017 Heros of the Realm) | Report
  4. Several other tokens from "Heros of the Realm" sets (HTRxx) | Report

Note

  • "Token" cards for convenience like a 3/3 Elk, created by Oko, Thief of Crowns, are not covered in this issue | Comment
  • Support for silver-bordered sets is a bit tricky and currently not planned | Comment

Tip

Some live data about token entries with missing pictures in our XML file can be seen in #85 (comment).

    Some of the proxies at mtg.onl aren't great image choices or really low image quality, so if other alternatives exist, let me know.

    Kelp

    Spirit

    Wolves of the Hunt

    Wood

    This issue is about tokens for old sets that were never printed.

    That link is a request for a "token" card for a new set as a convenience. It would need its own issue.

    Reading Oko again, you are right. It's just for convenience as the wording doesn't mention a token.

    Our favorite card Blessed Sanctuary will now also be token-less

    Is that a badly-cropped screenshot from MTG Arena? That's not the level of quality I'm looking for here.

    https://www.mtg.onl/mtg-missing-tokens/ revealed e.g. Uktabi Kong's 1/1 Ape token, that we do not have yet.

    This list might be a resource to find other missing ones.

    Support for silver-bordered sets was not planned due to lack of oracle errata making them incompatible and hard to work with. See #48

    HTR17 also has two cards that create tokens, but these tokens were never released.

    https://scryfall.com/card/htr17/1/diabolical-salvation

    https://scryfall.com/card/htr17/2/inzerva-master-of-insights

    As these are not "playable" cards its not a high priority to make tokens for them, but I thought it should be added to the list of missing tokens regardless.

    Some self-updating, informational data on the tokens.xml file at master regarding pictures:

    • Token with no set element at all:
    • Token with missing "picURL" attribute ( <set> ):
    • Token with empty "picURL" value ( <set picURL=""> ):

    Some tokens do not have an entry at all yet, like those reported here.

    it does not matter, as long as the url stays valid, imgur keeps images just the same

    if you think it's worth changing the token, I'm fine with either though

    Bigger token means higher quality picture, I like it.

    Thanks for looking into most of the missing token art @SlightlyCircuitous!

    Going off of mainman879's comment about Heroes of the Realm, there are several more cards that make tokens in those sets (and thus in Cockatrice) that we may or may not care to make some cards for. Heroes is some kind of internal rewards set for WotC employees, so these cards were never printed for the masses and not intended to be playable. I imagine the priority for these is way lower than the schemes.

    Chandra, Gremlin Wrangler makes a 2/2 red Gremlin token (though the one from AER is probably sufficient)

    Dungeon Master makes five different tokens:

    1/1 black Skeleton with "When this creature dies, each opponent gains 2 life."

    3/3 red Fighter with first strike

    1/1 white Cleric token with lifelink

    2/2 black Rogue token with hexproof

    1/1 blue Wizard token with flying.

    Kharis & the Beholder makes a 1/1 white Human token (though, there's plenty of those around in the xml already).

    The Legend of Arena makes a 2/1 red Human Wizard token.

    Euroakus makes some number of 1/1 blue Human Wizard tokens (which exist already in ENM)

    Ersta, Friend to All makes a 1/1 WUBRG Human Wizard token as well as an emblem

    [New in 2024]

    Svega, the Unconventional makes a novel 1/1 WUBRG Attendee token.

    @d0munit

    Karn, Living Legacy (DMU) Never got a physical print for his Emblem, and the token does not exist in real life, but does exist in MTG Arena
    Emblem effect: "Tap an untapped artifact you control: This emblem deals 1 damage to any target.”

    Tokens from J22 that never got printed:

    Colorless artifact token named Banana with “{T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Add {R} or {G}. You gain 2 life.” created by Kibo, Uktabi Prince

    1/1 red Pirate creature token with menace and haste created by Daring Piracy

    5/5 colorless artifact token Vehicle named Zeppelin with flying and crew 3 made by Lita, Mechanical Engineer

    Wilds of Eldraine Commander added one token with no art:

    3/1 red Knight creature token made by Court of Embereth

    To summarize this long thread for anyone jumping in later, currently the only tokens without images are ones made by the Heroes of the Realm cards mentioned in this comment and this comment.

    #287 adds three tokens from J25 with no art:

    • 1/1 blue Jellyfish with Flying made by Cynette, Jelly Drover
    • Jumblebones, a 2/1 black legendary skeleton made by Ozox, the Clattering King
    • 2/2 white Nymph enchantment creature token made by Psemilla, Meletian Poet

    I think that we can close this issue. The original intent (adding missing art to existing token entries in the tokens file) has been fulfilled for every entry except for some of the Heroes of the Realm tokens, which would never see play (save for one small edge case in Commander). New missing token art can be reported in new issues if needed.
