Unglued and its followup Unhinged are also the only sets in which the artwork of non- Planeswalker cards extend outside the art frame.

The lands are special full-art lands which have extended artwork inside an oval frame stretching from the top to bottom of the card. The set included 83 silver-bordered cards, five black-bordered cards ( basic lands) and six tokens.
