Friday, Nov 6. 2015 Recap

Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens: Green variants #49 – Luke’s new friend & #68 – Yoda’s farewell.

Signature Series: Silver variant Zeb Orrelios. Looks like they did away with the blank signature cards. I think that was definitely unneeded and just caused confusion and undue stress to potential collectors. Some of these chases are getting to be way to convoluted so it’s nice to see Topps open to simplifying the process on occasion.

Crimson Base Variant: Max Rebo.

Space Paintings Series 2: TIE Fighter Attack.

Faction Team Chase: Topps has brought back Factions! This time, the Faction that pulls the most Faction variant cards—of which there are 5: Separatists – Asajj Ventress, Galactic Republic – Captain Rex, Galactic Empire – Emperor Palpatine, Independent – Greedo, Rebel Alliance – Lando Calrissian. If you pull a Faction variant and your faction pulls the most variants, you’ll have an opportunity to pull a special Faction Award card. After a day, it already seems that Separatists have the fewest number of players, they are way behind.
