Arrived has it...
Today is the unofficial National
Star Wars Day, May 4. In honor of this day I offer a trilogy of Star Wars relics that I have picked up over the past few months, all from
Episode VI Return of the Jedi.
The first two cards are from the 2013 Topps Jedi Legacy
release. The relics are an Ewok’s fur and part of Jabba’s Sail Barge sail.
There are three different relics in the release, the
third being Chewbacca’s fur but those are still well outside of my comfort range in
price. Each of the three relics have multiple character versions with some selling for
more than other, for example the Slave Leia Jabba Sail card sells for more than the rest just like the Wicket
Ewok Fur sells for more than the other Ewoks and so on.
The third relic is from this year’s very cool 2015 Topps
Star Wars Masterwork release, a Scout Trooper Shield Bunker Panel. Like the
other relics there are multiple characters and two different sections of the
structure are used; Inner Panel and Frame. The main character cards run higher in price
and I have seen a couple of cards with screw holes that sold at a premium.
Very cool cards. I have the exact same Ewok relic! It's suppose to be a birthday or Christmas for my friend, but I think I'm gonna keep it for myself and just buy her an Ewok stuffed animal.
ReplyDeleteI am torn about going after some of the other cards, they are on the cheaper end of Star Wars relics and they are neat cards.
DeleteCool stuff. I pulled a copy of that R2 relic from the very first pack I opened from the set.
ReplyDeleteThe Jabba Sail card is one of my favorite Star Wars relics, that is cool that you were able to start with such a cool card in your first pack from Jedi Legacy.
