Star Wars Galaxy 7
After a year's wait, Topps finally released the new Star Wars Galaxy 7 in early March. My friend Rob was getting a case the day before mine were to arrive, so he asked me if I wanted to split the case with him. I'm a pushover for Star Wars cards, so I told him I would. It turned out to be a great decision. My nephew and I headed to his house to help open the case, and in my nephew's first box he pulled a 1/1 Refractor- only 15 of them in the set and super hard to pull- 1 in 16,096 packs! We knew right then that one card would more than pay for the whole case. We also pulled some nice sketches, but it was my nephew again who pulled (what I considered) the gem of the case- a Michael Duron Darth Vader/Snowtroopers sketch. I took a picture of it with my phone and sent Mike a message (friendship has it's advantages) and he told me "You pulled one of my 'sugar booger' sketches." It was something new Mike was trying- they seemed to be patterned off his "A Boy and his Wookie" comic strip, plus the sugar booger sketches had candy canes and sweets on them. I thought it was cool. Plus it was the first case I had opened and we had already pulled a Duron. I think I'm gonna like this product. More updates to come soon. Until then, thanks for reading...
