It's been 4 years since the TOPPS Star Wars Card Trader app was unleashed upon the world. Since it's the reason we're here as a podcast, we give it its due. Rhett literally phones in the episode, accidentally doubling as our "from the WWII front lines" correspondent.
We discuss cards that have been under represented in the app:
- "Capes of Calrissian": when will we get this set?
- Lack of baby Ewok cards: only seen in classic art that we could find.
- Abandonment of Lott Dod base cards
- Poggle rainbow check-in (spoiler: not going well)
Other Star Wars things we're liking:
- The two-foot Super Star Destroyer expansion for the Star Wars: Armada miniatures game
- Hasbro's massive Jabba's Sail Barge
- Michael shares how he was moved to tears by the new novel, Queen's Shadow. We conjecture the collective noun for a group of handmaiden ("tale").
We also discover there are a lot of characters in the Star Wars universe that have double-g in their names.
