Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom Card #40 - Yen Sid's Sorcerer's Hat: The Mystical Finale of the Moon Set!
Welcome, Fellow Apprentice Sorcerers! ✨
If you have ever stood in the heart of Fantasyland at Walt Disney World, spell card in hand, heart pounding as you lifted it toward a hidden portal to cast your magic - then you already know that Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom was something truly, wonderfully special. Today I am beyond thrilled, because we are closing out the Moon symbol set in the most spectacular way imaginable: with Card #40, Yen Sid's Sorcerer's Hat! 🎴
Yen Sid. Even his name is pure Disney magic - spell it backwards and you will smile every single time. This commanding, enigmatic sorcerer first appeared in the beloved Fantasia (1940) segment "The Sorcerer's Apprentice," silently watching over Mickey Mouse with those piercing eyes and that magnificent star-covered robe. He is wisdom and power wrapped in deep blue and violet, and he has always felt like the very soul of Disney magic itself. Seeing him anchor Card #40 as the capstone of the Moon symbol group? Honestly, I cannot think of a more perfect finish to this incredible run of cards.
Card Details at a Glance
Card #40 is a Mystic spell class card with a Wishful action type - and there is something so beautifully poetic about that pairing. Yen Sid, the all-knowing master sorcerer, channeling a Wishful energy? It speaks to the deeper current of hope and wonder that flows beneath all of his formidable power. The weapon featured on this card is the legendary Sorcerer's Hat, one of the most iconic props in all of Disney animation history. His stats are perfectly balanced: Attack 3, Boost 0, Shield 3, for a total score of 6 - making him a solid, reliable, and deeply satisfying force in any spell deck.
That total of 6 places Yen Sid among the strongest cards in the entire Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom set, sharing that coveted score with powerhouses like Apprentice Mickey's Broomsticks (Card #01), Merlin's Fireball (Card #12), Mike's Grand Entrance (Card #31), and The Mad Hatter's Tea Time (Card #36). For a set builder chasing the highest-scoring cards in the checklist, Yen Sid is absolutely a must-have.
The Complete Moon Symbol Set
Card #40 is the final card of the Moon symbol group, wrapping up a stunning lineup that spans cards #23 through #40. What an extraordinary roster it is! From Aladdin's Lamp Warrior (#23) and Bolt's Super Bark (#24) to Cinderella's Magic Ribbon (#25), Colonel Hathi's Righteous Stomp (#26), Eeyore's Gloomy Cloud (#27), Frozone's Ice Blast (#28), Lightning McQueen's Ka-Chow (#29), Mickey's Magic Beans (#30), Mike's Grand Entrance (#31), Pinocchio's Sawdust Blast (#32), Prince Philip's Enchanting Sword (#33), Snow White's Housecleaning (#34), the Headless Horseman's Exploding Jack-O-Lantern (#35), The Mad Hatter's Tea Time (#36), The Queen of Hearts's Card Army (#37), The Sugar Plum Fairies' Dewdrop Spiderweb (#38), and WALL-E's Trash Crunch (#39) - this group has something spectacular for every type of collector.

Marking all 18 Moon symbol cards as "Have" in the Collectiblz app is an incredibly satisfying milestone. Definitely give yourself a little celebration moment when you get there!
A Personal Memory 🏰
I still remember the very first time I played Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. I had just received my starter pack of spell cards at Town Square, and the cast member handed me my map with the biggest, warmest smile. I made my way through Fantasyland, holding cards up at the hidden portals, watching the magic unfold on screen right before my eyes. When I encountered Yen Sid's presence in the game story - that authoritative, commanding energy - I immediately thought to myself, "I need HIS card." It took me a while to track it down through trades with other guests, but the day I finally slipped Yen Sid into my collection felt like a true collector's triumph. That feeling of completion, of closing an incredible chapter? That is exactly what Card #40 brings you today.
Every spell card tells a story - and the master sorcerer's story is always the one most worth finishing.
