SW01-52 - Who will win the final Star War?

What's TOPPS about this card?

1. Who are they kidding, with the perspex board with lines all over it..they'd soon walk into it than actually know what it's supposed to tell them.

2. Caption competition, guy on left to Leia, "what's say you and I dump that golden bozzo and go grab ourselves a bite to eat".

SW01-41 - Facing the deadly chasm

What's TOPPS about this card?

1. Yet another great scene here as Luke and Leia are confronted with what looks like an unlikey escape.

2. I've added the back of this card here on this post as it's the center piece of the comic jigsaw picture on the reverse side of the card set.

Lord Vader threatens Princess Leia! - Star Wars series 1 card #17

Another Movie Summary card...

This time we have the 3rd card in the summary sequence, which actually fits in the well with the card sequence as this summary is all about the droids being purchased from the Jawa's and Luke finding the Leia message.

What's Topps about this card?


1. The scene is very similar to card # 10 from this set.

2. A nice father and daughter moment.

3. Caption competition time: Darth to Leia, "I'll let you go to the mall, but only if your home for dinner".

Princess Leia-captured! - Star Wars Series 1 card #10

This is first card in the set to have a Story Summary on the back of the card. In their wisdom, Topps decided to put the Story Summaries in a random order, hence while this card is the first in the set to have a Summary on the reverse, the Story Summary is number 8 of 11.

What's Topps about this card?

1. Pivotal moment in the Star Wars story when Princess Leia is captured. If she hadn't been, then the whole gang wouldn't have come looking for her and start the whole war.

2. It's got a Story Summary on the back of the card, so it's sort of like 2 cards in one!

3. Evil as he is, Lord Vader really shouldn't be pointing his finger at a gentile.

Princess Leia Organa - Star Wars series 1 card #5

Princess Leia's character card, and the 5th card in the set.

What's Topps about this card?


1. It's a character card...doesn't she look all demure?

2. Others to audition for the role of Princess Leai Organa include, Terri Nunn (one time lead singer of techno-pop band Berlin), Jodie Foster, Sissy Spacek and Cindy Williams (from the TV show 'Lavern and Shirley'

3. Fisher was apparently only given the role provided she lose 10 pounds...poor luv.
