Bilbo Baggins, Burglar // Take a Glance (HOB 34) is a blue card from Magic: The Gathering's 2026 The Hobbit set. Illustrated by Kieran Yanner, this common card utilizes a unique Adventure layout that bridges two distinct card types within a single frame. The creature side presents a Legendary Halfling Rogue with a mana cost of {2}{U} and a power and toughness of 2/1. This mana value of 3 allows for early-game deployment in decks focused on blue strategies. The second half of the card, Take a Glance, is a Sorcery also costing {U}. This Adventure mechanic invites players to cast the sorcery spell to execute an effect, or sacrifice the sorcery to put the legendary creature onto the battlefield from the graveyard. This dual functionality provides tactical flexibility, allowing for mana acceleration or card advantage depending on the game state. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards appreciate the thematic integration of J.R.R. Tolkien's universe into the game's mechanics. The Hobbit set expands the lore with characters and locations familiar to fans, making this card a relevant piece for thematic collection builders. The card's color identity remains strictly blue, ensuring it fits cleanly into mono-blue or blue-heavy archetypes without color pie violations.
