2017 Topps Star Wars Journey to the Last Jedi Blaster Box

The 2017 Topps Star Wars Journey to The Last Jedi trading card collection sets the stage for the eighth installment in the saga's main timeline. While offering glimpses of early elements from The Last Jedi, the primary focus lies in unraveling the intricate web of characters and events shaping the narrative.

In a nod to the legacy of the franchise, the base set of cards evokes a sense of nostalgia reminiscent of the original 1977 Topps Star Wars set, featuring the iconic blue starfield border. Printed on thick, vintage-style stock akin to Topps Heritage products, the complete base set comprises 110 cards, delving into various aspects of the Star Wars universe while providing an early peek into The Last Jedi.

Base cards come in several parallels, with Green Starfield being the most common, found in every pack. Other parallels include Black Starfield (1:2 packs) and Silver Starfield (1:4). Exclusive to hobby packs are serial-numbered parallels such as White Starfield (/199), Orange Starfield (/50), Gold Starfield (/25), and the elusive Imperial Red (1/1), with Printing Plates also making random appearances.

Autograph collectors can anticipate signatures from over 30 actors, primarily those from The Force Awakens, likely to carry over to The Last Jedi. Autograph parallels, distinguished by character outlines, come in Purple (/99), Orange (/25), Gold (/10), Printing Plates, and the ultra-rare Imperial Red (1/1), with Gold and Red Autographs exclusive to hobby packs. Multi-signed autographs featuring two, three, or six signatures add to the excitement.

Plastic Emblem cards showcase both heroes and villains from the Star Wars universe, with numbered versions including Orange (/99) and hobby-exclusive Gold (/25) and Imperial Red (1/1) variations. Additionally, collectors can discover character-based Sketch cards, offering unique interpretations drawn directly on the cards.

The collection also features a range of inserts, including Character Stickers reminiscent of the 1977 originals, Darkness Rising, Character Cards, Blueprints, and Illustrated Cards, each adding depth and intrigue to the set.
