Next Lorcana set feels like a tribute to the most underrated Disney movie

The nextDisneyLorcana set has been revealed, and as someone who thinks Treasure Planet is thoroughly underrated, I’m psyched at how swashbuckling it feels.
Naturally, wearegetting some of that anyway. Along with pirate Stitch and a version of Jasmine who looks as if she’d prefer to make you walk the plank over a magic carpet ride, everyone from Winnie the Pooh to Mickey Mouse are getting nautical makeovers too.
Azurite Sea is also providing us with a first for what is quickly establishing itself as one of thebest card games– Big Hero 6 and Rescue Rangers (including Chip, Dale, and Gadget Hackwrench). These characters will get cards for the first time in this set.
As usual, this Disney Lorcana expansion will include two new starter decks (Ruby/Amber and Sapphire/Emerald) to go with booster packs and an Illumineer’s Trove filled with packs of cards, accessories, and dice. New playmats (using art from ‘Elsa – The Fifth Spirit’ and ‘Donald Duck – Buccaneer’) are also arriving alongside card sleeves and deck boxes featuring ‘Scar – Vengeful Lion’ and ‘Winnie the Pooh – Hunny Wizard.’ I was alreadyveryonboard with the latter design, so I don’t know how to feel about developer Ravensburger letting me fuel my obsession with that artwork even further.
In terms of story, the press release hjas this to say:
“Repairs to the damaged Great Illuminary remain incomplete following Shimmering Skies, so the Illumineers set out on an expedition to save it. Along with their seafaring glimmers, Illumineers sail the dangerous Azurite Sea seeking the owner of the hidden inkcaster discovered in Ursula’s Return. They can only hope to find a more experienced Illumineer, someone who can teach them the valuable skills that will help fix the Great Illuminary. Their only clue in this search is a mysterious owl symbol inscribed on the base of the hidden inkcaster that matches a symbol shown on maps of the Azurite Sea. Meanwhile, Jafar, who remains determined to rule over the realm, searches for the other half of the powerful Hexwell Crown.”
