The Equinox Superdrop 2024 is a superdrop in the Secret Lair product range and a continuation of the alternate art Secret Lair Drop Series. It became delayed available for purchase from the Wizards of the Coast webshop secretlair.wizards.com on April 8, 2024.[2]
Description
Although the 2024 spring equinox was March 20, this Superdrop that was named for it was only released on April 8.
This superdrop features three Universes Beyond Fallout drops that supplement the Fallout release of March 2024, and coincide with the premiere of the Fallout TV series on Prime Video.[3] The art of two of these drops is credited to the AKQA digital design agency.
There is also a drop in the Artist Series.
Because of the new limited-print-run model, most the Fallout drops and Rovina Cai drops were sold out within days, while Phoebe Wahl and the Diabolical Diorama's didn't sell out and were available until the expiration date of April 28, 2024.
