The 30th Anniverary Celebrations is here!!! Come on down!

09/16/2026

We are still waiting for our shipment of the Pokemon 30th Celebrations set. So if you are waiting at the open, we will not be selling it as of right now. When it does arrive, we will be limiting product to one of each per party at slightly below market price. We will allow people to trade for one more with cards valued over 20 dollars at 66% trade rate. With the demand for this product we will be breaking seals, or you are welcome to open in the shop so we can also enjoy your pulls!

Vanguard's community suffered a tremendous loss on August 13th. Todd Sadler was everything we could ask in a community member. He was always open to play any level deck, any level opponent, and always made sure they had a pleasant time in every game he played.

Todd helped teach me how to play in numerous games over the last year. We also had a connection to Community Theater, specifically Falmouth Theater Guild, where I did many shows with my Father.

Todd shared so many close friends in our store, his other friends from theater, his crew that he travelled to Magic Con in Vegas last year with, everyone had a better experience in our store thanks to Todd.

There will be a celebration of his life on Saturday October 17th at Lucas Hall in North Falmouth, MA from 2-5pm.

We are planning a tournament in his honor soon at the store, but we have not finalized plans for it yet, but we are working with Todd's crew from Magic Con to make sure we have the best event possible to honor Todd.

We will, and specifically I will, miss Todd greatly at the store. He was everything we could ask for from part of our community. We heard the news of his passing on the one year anniversary of posting about Bruce Frasier's passing, and losing two pillar's of our community in the same time frame is something that is extremely difficult to overcome.

Thank you, and we will miss you, Todd.

Vanguard is jumping into the Disney Coconut format! All day every Sunday this fall we will be hosting Lorcana Coconut Days!

Lorcana is a new format of Lorcana that is an eternal format that you can play ALL of our Lorcana cards without fear of rotation. It's a social format, that you play pods of any number (We suggest four) and everyone quests against each other to get to 25 Lore.

If you've played Lorcana in the past it's an amazing way to get back in to the game! If you've never played before we have decks built for you to try out and we will teach you how to play!

This Saturday (July 18) you can buy in to All-Day Drop-In Commander by funding Gabrielle Rosson's directorial debut, 𝑇𝑟𝑎𝑠ℎ 𝑄𝑢𝑒𝑒𝑛. 𝑇𝑟𝑎𝑠ℎ 𝑄𝑢𝑒𝑒𝑛 is a blood-soaked, female-driven horror-comedy about what happens when a woman who’s spent her entire life being overlooked…finally becomes impossible to ignore."

Who is Gabrielle Rosson? Gabby is Christian's mom! Yes, THE Christian, Vanguard Alum and friend to all.

Chris Kattan (𝑆𝑁𝐿, 𝑁𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑎𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑅𝑜𝑥𝑏𝑢𝑟𝑦) is now attached to the project, as is one of my favorite comedic actors, Matty Cardarople (𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑣𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝐷𝑜𝑔𝑠, 𝑆𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑟 𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑠).

Gabby and company are raising $20,000 to bring this film to life using practical effects, real locations, and a team of passionate artists who know how to make something unforgettable on an indie scale. Your contribution will go to securing locations, housing and production design. Yes, practical effects, not CGI slop.
