Disney Lorcana Wilds Unknown Best Cards to Pull 2026

Disney Lorcana Wilds Unknown best cards to pull span two entirely different tiers: the collector tier where Iconic cards hit four-figure prices, and the competitive tier where a $30 single could win you a game night. Set 12, released May 15, 2026, is the first Pixar-focused Lorcana set, bringing Toy Story, Brave, and The Incredibles into the card game. Knowing which cards belong to which tier changes whether you crack packs or buy singles.

Update (2026-09-08): The specific prices below are a late-July snapshot and Wilds Unknown singles have kept moving since Attack of the Vine's July 24 release shifted collector attention to the newer set. The most valuable cards ranking (linked in Related Reading below) has a more recent price pass; check TCGPlayer directly for today's number before buying.

TL;DR: Buzz Lightyear, Jungle Ranger (Iconic) is the top chase card, priced around $3,589 as of late July 2026. Merida, Formidable Archer (Iconic) follows at roughly $1,835, up from its June price. Enchanted cards run $117 to $266 depending on the character, with Jessie the current high end. For competitive play, Dale, Ready for His Shot has cooled to around $11 to $12 after debuting near $30. Iconic pull rates sit around 1 in 1,500 packs: buy singles for specific targets rather than gambling on boxes.

Disney Lorcana Wilds Unknown best cards to pull: quick answer

The two Iconic rarity cards (Buzz Lightyear and Merida) are the highest-value pulls in the set, and it's not close. Below them, the Enchanted tier runs $185 to $205. Competitive players should look at Dale and Casa Madrigal as the most useful singles for tournament play. A comprehensive look at Iconic rarity pull odds and market values is in the Lorcana Wilds Unknown Iconic Cards guide.

Iconic rarity: the ultra-chase tier

Iconic is a rarity above Enchanted that Ravensburger introduced to mark the most extraordinary cards in a set. In Wilds Unknown, two cards hold Iconic status:

Buzz Lightyear, Jungle Ranger is the headline pull of the entire set. Market price sits around $3,589 as of late July 2026, down from a peak closer to $4,500 shortly after launch. That number still reflects both the card's scarcity and the cultural weight of Buzz Lightyear as the face of the Toy Story franchise. The artwork leans into an adventurer aesthetic: Buzz in jungle terrain, which fits the Wilds Unknown theme.

Merida, Formidable Archer comes in second at approximately $1,835 as of late July 2026, up from its post-launch price near $1,274. Merida has been a fan favorite since Brave's 2012 release, and the Iconic treatment gives the card a scale that regular rarity versions can't match.

The pull rate data is sobering: Iconic cards appear at roughly 1 in 1,500 packs. To put that in concrete terms, a booster box holds 24 packs. You'd statistically need to open around 62 booster boxes before expecting one Iconic card of any type. At typical MSRP, that's thousands of dollars per expected Iconic pull. Buying Iconic singles on the secondary market is almost always the more rational path if you want to own them.

Enchanted cards: the Art Nouveau tier

Enchanted cards are the visually distinct premium tier below Iconic. They use Art Nouveau-style illustration treatments that give familiar characters a different aesthetic from the standard card art. Wilds Unknown has multiple Enchanted cards with confirmed market values:

Jessie, Lively Cowgirl (Enchanted): approximately $266 as of late July 2026, up from a roughly $185 post-launch price
Touch the Sky 240/204 (Enchanted): has cooled toward the $135 to $200 range since launch, with limited recent sales to pin down an exact figure
Enchanted card 226/204 (Mrs. Incredible): approximately $117 as of late July 2026, down from a roughly $205 post-launch price

Jessie has overtaken Mrs. Incredible as the priciest Enchanted single in the set as prices settled through the summer. The Incredibles and Toy Story families still hold most of the top value slots in Wilds Unknown, but the exact ranking between them has shifted since launch week.

The Art Nouveau framing sets these apart from what competitors produce. Each Enchanted card reads like a standalone art piece rather than just a higher rarity version of the same card. That's why collectors pay a premium even when the gameplay text is identical to the base version. The Disney Lorcana Enchanted Cards guide walks through the full Art Nouveau treatment and how Enchanted rarity has evolved across sets.

One thing worth tracking: Enchanted prices typically see their peak within the first few weeks of a set launch and then soften as supply stabilizes. If you're buying Enchanted cards for collection, the six-to-eight week window after release often sees the most favorable prices for secondary market buyers.

Competitive singles worth buying

If your goal is winning games rather than owning rare prints, the value calculation shifts entirely. The most impactful competitive singles from Wilds Unknown are priced in a range that makes targeted purchasing practical.

Dale, Ready for His Shot is the standout single from a competitive standpoint. Normal versions launched in the $25 to $35 range but have since settled around $11 to $12 as of late July 2026, which reflects supply catching up to demand rather than the card falling out of competitive lists. Dale still shows up in tournament lists and community testing as a card worth building around, so the lower price is good news for anyone buying in now. The Disney Lorcana Wilds Unknown Best Decks guide shows which archetypes are running Dale and how it fits. The non-foil is the smart buy if you're playing rather than collecting.

Casa Madrigal, Courtyard is the location card generating the most competitive interest. Strong location cards in Lorcana can define how a game progresses, and Courtyard's ability effects have drawn attention from deckbuilders testing the Wilds Unknown format. Demand from both competitive players and collectors has kept prices elevated.

The Toy Story and Incredibles characters dominate both the collector and competitive conversations in Wilds Unknown. Both franchises brought characters with strong abilities, not just recognizable names.

Collector vs player: two different pull goals

Most Wilds Unknown pull guides treat all readers the same way. They don't. The collector and the competitive player have opposite strategies when deciding whether to crack packs or buy singles.

For collectors: The goal is owning the rarest, most visually impressive version of a card. Iconic cards are the pinnacle. The problem is that pack EV (expected value) doesn't support chasing Iconics through box purchases. With a 1 in 1,500 pack pull rate, your expected spend per Iconic far exceeds the market price of either card. Single purchases from TCGPlayer or a local game store give you the card you want at a known price.

For competitive players: Enchanted and Iconic versions are irrelevant. A foil Jessie Enchanted plays identically to the non-foil common. The smart approach is identifying the three to five singles that actually improve your deck (Dale, Courtyard, and whichever characters synergize with your ink color) and buying those specifically.

The crossover between collector and competitive intent is smaller than it looks. Most players who buy Iconic cards do so for collection, not because the card is broken in the format. The Disney Lorcana Core vs Infinity format guide clarifies which cards are relevant in each competitive format and which are collector-only value. Most competitive players who pull an Iconic will sell it and buy the tournament staples they actually need.

The Wilds Unknown set championship prize card (Woody, Jungle Guide) adds another layer: promo cards from organized play are not available through packs at all, which is a distinction worth understanding before committing to box purchases. Tournament outcomes that shaped the meta and which singles pros prioritized are documented in the Lorcana Set Championship results for Wilds Unknown.
