I have a feeling these are going to be around $500 by the end of the day. If these are impossible to get through the public sale, prices will be insane.

I got my one box. My only disappointment is the fact that the box doesn't look cooler. Topps usually does a great job with the look of their Star Wars boxes; I am hopeful that this is just an early mockup.

Its up to the the buyer if they want us to open the box live on stream, i have a lovely young female model to help display the cards if the buyer chooses to bust with us whom i will "make love to" before/after the break

I'm seeing Aqua, Peridot, Green, Orange, Gold, Purple, Red but can't tell what the 1/1 parallel is ...

Odds are per mini box not pack correct?

Peridot, thank you! I still can't gauge the 1/1. Does not seem to say Papa, almost seems like it starts with a vowel like O or U, looks to have a lower case g or p, and ends in another vowel with 4-5 letters.

I think it's Onyx. Flipped through a defined gem dictionary and Onyx is the only one that visually fits the gem theme with that short of a name and the way it looks. So a black sapphire 1/1 card...that should look rad with any Vader appearance.

Figured I'd repost one more time as it seems like we have the gem sapphire parallel names flushed out:

I might be off as it's super fuzzy to read, but this is what I think I see there:

Approximate odds per mini-box of finding *Sequentially Numbered Base Card Parallels
Aqua 1:11
Peridot 1:13
Green 1:21
Orange 1:39
Gold 1:64
Purple 1:96
Red 1:181
Onyx(?) 1:941

Should I be good?
The page glitched out on me too and I got the confirmation email. But, mine is showing up on the orders page. If yours still isn't there you might want to contact Topps.

Wow they barely made any of this based on the odds. 1 in 117.6 boxes for a 1/1. Isn’t it a small checklist too?

To those who were complaining about the cost of the 2022 MC membership last fall, this one alone might cover that cost by the time it is live.

Roughly 15.5k boxes based on pack odds and 132 card checklist. Right between 2020 F1 Sapphire and 2020 GPK Sapphire.

Said all year it would take something like this to make this years MC Club worth it. It's finally worth it.

Bad news is Star Wars Sapphire is only 1 box per account, probably 100 times factory cost markup, at least double the cost it should be. If it was a distributor only product cost would probably be $50-$80 a box.

If the membership cost $5 to renew MC members would complain it wasn't free.

The monetary windfall of being gifted 5 figures every year by Topps with my memberships outweighs the utter shame and embarrassment of being associated with the entitled brats in this club.
