MAGIC THE GATHERING - POP Games N° XXX - Strixhaven Tam

Magic: The Gathering — POP! Games No. 1324 Tam

Add a new Strixhaven student to your collection with this POP! Games No. 1324 figurine featuring Tam. Designed by Funko, it depicts the young gorgon mage levitating, concentrating on a richly sculpted circle of green magic before her.

Tam is distinguished by her pale green skin, large black eyes and the orange markings visible on her face and forearms. Her elaborate hairstyle combines light grey hair swept back with several long auburn plaits, held in place by turquoise ties. This combination of cool and warm tones immediately gives the character a distinctive visual identity.

The figurine is dressed in a student and adventurer’s outfit consisting of a turquoise tunic, a light-coloured belt, brown trousers and high boots. Several pieces of fabric float behind her, accentuating the impression of movement created by her aerial pose.

Tam extends one hand forwards whilst an imposing green magic circle forms around her other hand. This translucent effect features concentric patterns and embossed symbols, evoking a complex spell in the process of being cast. The figurine rests on a transparent base that creates the illusion that the mage is floating above it. The official artwork confirms this pose, the magic disc and the key details of her outfit.

Made from vinyl, this POP! figure stands approximately 12.7 cm tall, including the base. It comes in an illustrated window box bearing the number 1324. Funko officially presents Tam as a legendary creature, part gorgon and part witch, capable of casting a spell whenever a land comes under her player’s control.

Character background and lore

Tam is a young gorgon studying at Strixhaven University on the plane of Arcavios. She is particularly drawn to mathematics, magical structures and phenomena that can be understood through sequences, patterns and constants. In the ‘Secrets of Strixhaven’ stories, she is notably described as being able to analyse events using a logic similar to that taught at Quandrix College.

Contrary to the traditional image of the menacing gorgon, Tam comes across as a thoughtful, reserved student who is deeply devoted to her fellow students. She prefers to observe and understand a situation before acting, even when events around her become difficult to control.

Her story is linked to a group of students facing increasingly dangerous magical anomalies within Strixhaven. Tam tries to help her friends whilst battling a sense of isolation and influences whose origins she does not immediately understand. Official accounts particularly emphasise her need to protect others and her attachment to the memories she shares with her group.

In the card game, Tam, the Observant Sequencer, is a legendary gorgon and witch creature. Her ability uses the ‘prepared’ mechanic: when a land comes under her player’s control, Tam can prepare a spell, which can then be cast as a copy before the creature needs to be prepared again. This mechanic was developed to represent mages capable of anticipating events and keeping a spell ready for use at the right moment.

The magic circle held by the miniature directly reflects this speciality. Its precise shape, concentric symbols and Tam’s focused posture give the impression that she is assembling a complex sequence before unleashing the prepared spell.
