Mickey's Wayward Sorcerer PSA 10 climbs while most Lorcana Enchanteds fall
A PSA 10 of the 2023 card sold for $2,025 after Hyperia City arrived, while 48 of 53 Enchanteds from this year's earlier sets sell for less than in September.

Hyperia City hit game stores on Oct. 16 with 18 new Enchanteds and reached general retail on Oct. 23. Within days of the retail release a PSA 10 of the three-year-old Mickey Mouse, Wayward Sorcerer, #208 from The First Chapter, brought $2,025 in an eBay auction, the most any PSA 10 of the card has sold for since June. When we wrote about this Mickey on Oct. 21, I said I'd buy one under $1,500 and that a patient buyer might get a shot closer to $1,000 after the new set launched. That shot hasn't come yet. The last confirmed sale under $1,500 was Sept. 27.
The rest of the game isn't doing this. Of the 53 Enchanteds from this year's three earlier sets, 48 sell for less now than they did in September. Even in The First Chapter, eight of the 11 Enchanteds sell for less raw than they did in September. Being a Mickey alone doesn't do it either, because PSA 10s of Steamboat Pilot, the Enchanted from 2025's Fabled, now sell for a little less than Wayward Sorcerer. Its First Chapter neighbor Artful Rogue has firmed up, pointing at the oldest Mickeys rather than Mickeys in general. The raw Wayward Sorcerer has climbed too. A raw copy now carries a $409 value.
Scarcity alone doesn't explain it. The First Chapter had 12 Enchanteds to this year's 72. Elsa, Spirit of Winter has 2,593 PSA 10s against Mickey's 1,312 as of Nov. 8 and hers still sell for more. My read is that Mickey is the face of the game, with PSA adding only five more 10s since Oct. 19.
It isn't bulletproof. This same Mickey sold for $2,695 in June while Ravensburger has reopened The First Chapter at least twice, most recently with a lottery for boxes in July 2025.
But my old number looks too low for now. I'd bid $1,650 on a PSA 10, the cheapest one has sold for since the Oct. 23 release, rather than chase the $2,025. PSA counts 827 PSA 9s of this Mickey behind its 1,312 10s. A 9 last sold for $550 on Oct. 11, more than $1,000 under that bid, but I'd still pay up for the 10 because it's the grade buyers chased after Hyperia City. I'd leave the 2026 Enchanteds alone for now, since Into the Inkdark is expected Feb. 12 with Lorcana's first Collector Boosters at select stores.
