Star Wars Galactic Connexions Greeting Cards

Hallmark greeting cards sold exclusively at Walmart.  There are 12 variations of cards.  Each one comes with on Topps Star Wars Galactic Connexions trading disc.  A total of 10 disc and sticker variations of each character were made.

I chose to collect the cards that contained a green trading disc.  So far, I have collected 10 of 12 characters.

Here are 3 picked up recently:

Star Wars: The Force Awakens

img524The other day, I posted a nine-card rainbow set I made for card #103 (Captain Phasma) of the recent Topps Star Wars: Journey to Force Awakens set.

That rainbow set came out really cool, and lead me to think of other cards in the set that I might want to attempt rainbows of.  NOTE: Keep in mind, I am excluding the 1/1 Imperial Red variations from consideration since they are waay out of my price range!

That said, I think card #110, which features a Force Awakens poster image, is probably the most collectible card in the series, and one that I think will make for a good rainbow quest.

I have managed to pick up a few so far, and I will post my progress once the nine-card set is completed.  For now, enjoy the holofoil starfield variation card that I picked up.  It is numbered 16/25, so it is the hardest printed variation (outside of the aforementioned 1/1 imperial red variation) to pick up.

I also think it is probably the coolest variation!  What do you think?

Star Wars Journey to Force Awakens Sketch Card Artist: Brian Reedy

img458 img459 I really enjoyed the cards that Brian Reedy did for the recent Topps Journey to the Force Awakens Star Wars set that recently came out.  He did about a dozen characters in this style with 7 “prints” made of each character.

So far, I have picked up the 4 sketch cards pictured.  The Stormtrooper and Chewbacca are probably my two favorites!  I hope to pick up a few more of his Star Wars sketch cards in the weeks to come, and hopefully Brian Reedy appears in future Topps trading card sets.  I really dig his style!

You can see more of Brian’s art posted on facebook at his art page (with a friend) by searching Attack the Planet.
