I did okay for 1 box. It's out of 5. It's for my collection.

I'll say! Congrats on the great hit!

Darth KB · 06-13-2017, 07:40 PM

Received my box today.

Peter Mayhew: Parallel numbered 04/25
Iko Uwais: Base auto card

Iko Uwais was actually the only autograph I didn't have in this set already. Mayhew is my second best pull from opening SW cards from Topps. Pulled a Carrie Fisher from the 2015 High Tek.

jdandns · 06-13-2017, 07:55 PM

Good stuff on the Hamill and Mayhew, guys, especially without having to buy a whole bunch of boxes to get 'em, congrats!

Nothing like that in my 6, but good enough with some lower numbered stuff. Will post in breaks shortly. Base set is gorgeous, but pretty astonished there's no card with General Leia prominently featured. Card backs are a well-designed, high gloss affair that would make pretty decent card fronts in a regular set.

Good luck, everyone else!

Dasklein83 · 06-13-2017, 08:37 PM

What size card sleeves do you all use for the autographs in these widevision sets? I have some sleeves for cards this size, but I can't use them. You pretty much have to jam the card in, and then it's super snug once it's in. I'm just leaving my Hamill in the box until I get a sleeve that fits.

Box #1: Mayhew /25 & Arti Shah
Box #2: Crystal Clarke /25 & Herring

Will the ticket sleeve & top loaders work with these cards or are the cards too thick?

Gold is /5, orange is /10. And I think both were announced as parallels before release. I do think they should have used colors that weren't so close to each other though...

clearblue · 06-13-2017, 10:13 PM

Wouldn't Ultra Pro Tall Soft Sleeves work? Unless the cards are larger and super thick, or if the sleeves were incorrectly manufactured, which I've seen before on regular size sleeves (made too narrow).

I must have missed the /5 bit; I was referring back to the original post in this thread for details of parallels.

And yeah, the coloring has been very confusing, what with different coloring for faction and parallel, sometimes overlapping. I'd thought originally about trying to collect a rainbow of a lesser character, but now I'm less inspired to do so.

So, who is Rinkwraith? Didn't see an ebay seller by that name.

ForceChange77 · 06-14-2017, 03:56 PM

I think he was a member here that got banned a couple years ago.

PhillyPhan · 06-14-2017, 04:14 PM

My box arrived the other day and my autos were...

Billie Lourd as Kaydel Ko Connix #/10
Yayan Ruhian as Tasu Leech

mlbexpert · 06-14-2017, 05:12 PM

My 4 boxes arrived today... Ripped them all immediately...

I...

am...

speechless...

I cannot believe it! BEST BREAK OF MY LIFE!!!

Fisher /5
Daniels /5
Mayhew /25

All from different boxes.

The rest (in case you are wondering):

The Vernel is /50

I am SO excited. All are for the PC.

I have no idea if I should go buy more or just enjoy the greatest break of my life and never buy boxes again. haha. This is unbelievable. I've NEVER EVER had luck like this!!! WOW!

Cujobyte · 06-14-2017, 05:17 PM

WOW, Congrats!!!

Nice!

I'd say quit while ahead, or until a price break haha.

If you're selling/trading a Razoo auto, please PM me. I have a FS/FT Star Wars thread as well with autos available in it.

If I hadn't already got my box, I'd have been saying "leave some for the rest of us!"

Awesome set of cards. Any thoughts about trying to complete a set since you already have so many rare ones?

I know it's good advice. But I'm a gambler. I love breaking. I know I won't be able to stay away. Will definitely be in for more if they run any specials. May be in for a couple more sooner than that. I might make a run at the set... but that's probably crazy. Will let you know about the Razoo. If I do go for the set, I may use it to trade for others later.

Haha! It's like you read my mind. I don't know how I can't try. Clearly there are still some incredibly rare cards I'm missing (Ridley, Ford, etc.), but I may make a run at it!

jamesr · 06-14-2017, 05:33 PM

I did a quick check on Topps' site earlier, looks like there's about 1050 boxes left (so just over half).

maxpower · 06-14-2017, 05:39 PM

Great break! Still waiting on my single box. Out of curiosity, care to share what number boxes you got, or at least if they sent them sequentially numbered?

They weren't even close to sequential. Jumped around, had one in the 100s, 800s, 1500s, and 1900s. And it's just a sticker on the outside of the box. Wasn't paying enough attention to tell you which hit came from which box. Sorry!

An old user here who mostly frequented the hockey forum. Got banned a while back (a great guy, but banned for justifiable reasons). I'll see if he's planning on selling it. He just asked me to post this, didn't mention anything about selling.

seems about right.

I witch it was easy to have a wiki anyone could edit when they see big cards pulled.

I think Fisher is the first and only 1/1 that's worth mentioning, and a few duals have been hit.

Plus there have been a few /5 of top few names pulled as well.

Maybe we could have a Google sheets doc that's public so anyone can add to it? Just hard when blowout is the OP so we can't have someone add it to the first post...

I didn't know he was banned, seemed like a good guy.

Scottish Punk · 06-15-2017, 07:28 AM

My 3 boxes - you could say it averages out MLBexperts break.

Iko Uwais/Razoo Qin-Fee and Harriet Walter/Doctor Kalonia
Paul Warren/Hassk Triplet and Emun Elliot/Major Brance /5 at least
IKo Uwais/Razoo Qin-Fee and Paul Warren/Hassk Triplet

The last box was a kick in the balls with both being duplicates. Boo!! Not sure if I want to try my luck any further, may wait for a price dip.
