Star Wars: Card Trader 2020 Weekly Sets – Series 1
Heroes
Five decades of Star Wars stories have introduced us to so many different types of heroes fighting evil across the galaxy, and now all of them will be available in the weekly heroes set, from Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Leia, to Rey, Finn, and Poe, and everyone in between. Your heroes journey begins now!
Villains
The dark side is a pathway to many abilities some would consider to be…unnatural. Well now it will feel very natural since you can own all of the villains that have spanned the saga from dark side users Darth Vader and Maul, to Imperial monsters such as Krennic and Tarkin, to the ultimate evil in the universe, Emperor Sheev Palpatine!
Showcase (Editors’ Choice)
Every week a member of the Topps SWCT team will add a new character to the mix, which can range anywhere from a highly popular character to a deep cut. You may open it up to find someone like Lando Calrissian or Thrawn one week, and Max Reebo or Dr. Evazan the next! You’ll find Star Wars is full of surprises, and this feature represents that nicely.
Gilded Galaxy
Completing sets is the destiny of a Jedi, and if you collect a full week’s worth of cards you’ll earn a Gilded Galaxy card! Sure Snoke had gold robes, but unless he was collecting his full slate of cards, he won’t have what you’ll earn, the Gilden Galaxy card which will be a fine, and valued, addition to your collection!
Concept Art
A lot of the imagination behind Star Wars begins with the art department, stemming all the way back to the legendary concepts created by Ralph McQuarrie. Well now you can obtain weekly concept art sets that span the entire saga, taking a look at what our favorite heroes, villains, creatures, droids, ships, and weapons looked like in the early stages of development!
Featured Creature!
Speaking of creatures, with the new weekly sets you’ll save yourself trips to the Mos Eisley Cantina by obtaining a different creature/alien species each week! It won’t cost you an arm or a leg, in more ways than one!
Droids
What’s Star Wars without droids? From C-3PO and R2-D2, BB-8 and D-O, good motivators and bad, droids add to the charm and mystique of the franchise in a big way! Each week the series will include a new droid to the set, this is madness!
Fans’ Choice Tournament
