Ultra PRO - Magic: The Gathering Final Fantasy Traveling Chocobo Holofoil Playmat

The playmat has a nicely stitched edge that doesn't catch cards but the foiling effect of the mat was far under what my expectations were. The foil is a speckled, glitter-like foiling over the entire mat making the surface sheen and giving it a matte-like surface. I prefer the normal cloth(?) material since it allows cards to glide across the surface. Many other foiled playmats will usually do a flat foil on accents and effects to add a layer of depth to the art. UltraPro has done foiled mats like that before (MagicCon 2025 Las Vegas; Cloud, Sephiroth, and a Secret Lair Lightning Bolt art to my recollection). Again, my expectations were of that kind of foiling, not whatever this is. Wasn't able to see the mat in-person and I can't rate it less than 4 stars since it simply wasn't what I expected, not that it's a bad product other than card-sliding.

Really cool playmat. Nice quality and the holographic details are nice extra little detail . It’s a little more harder to pick up raw cards on it than a non foil play mat but nothing that card sleeves won’t fix. I use mine for playing and openings and it looks great doing both . I would definitely recommend!

This playmat is simply stunning. I'm not the biggest chocobo fan in general, but I was amazed by the holofoil art specifically and decided to pick it up. It's also stitched! That makes it a great playmat in all regards.

The foil playmat looks great and the chocobo is very cute!

It looks amazing and will be a good fit in my final fantasy collection
