Topps Star Wars Galactic Files

Hey guys, I found a link that shows a new TOPPS star wars card release in August 2012 called "Star Wars Perspectives." Anybody know anything about this? Here is the link: NSU Magazine: Upcoming Releases

Thanks.

We have been talking about it at NSU, well sort of. No info as of yet. According to Harris Tosser it has been renamed Galactic Files, they haven't updated the site yet by the looks of it.
Star Wars Perspective - Topic

Hmm! Sounds very interesting

Guys, it has been officially released! The new Topps Star wars cards information on previews. Here is the link. This will be an expensive set.

What do you all think?

Wow. I like the sound of it. A bit pricier than the Galaxy stuff; I'll have to think about preordering boxes vs a case.

Big set too. 350 cards VS 110-120 for the Galaxy sets. Curious about the Sketch Artist List.
You do get 2 "Hits" per box though, a Sketch and either an Auto or "Relic".

Man I wonder who's signing and what Relic cards there will be. I will most likely want a set but at 350 cards I see them being 60+ a set on ebay just for the small amount you get in a box anyway.

[adrian845]

With 12 cards per pack, that'll be 120 more cards per box(288) than the Galaxy releases(168). Not even close to completing a set with one box though. This set may put the "Trading" aspect back in Trading Cards.

[Deathbymonkeys]

Although if they arn't all art (And they don't seem to be). Then I might just get ones that are new art for the EU stuff. I like the idea of art on cards. Not so much on pics.

Adrian, yes it does look like the "trading" aspect will be needed for this set, or the purchase of multiple boxes. Guess we will have to wait a few month to find out about the signers.
