SDCC mystery box breakdowns

Well it's not as good as Bitsy's but here it is!
There are holes along the crease! 

That's a nice variant card!!!  Very cool! 

[ECL]

really nice variants!

[Bogleg]

Oh no, light sabers at dawn   

I was a bit dubious about how the oversized cards would look but they are exactly like a normal size card, only bigger    Congratulations to everyone on getting a goody bag - I would have been tempted if the postage wasn't so high - but it is so nice that people who collect these cards can now get their hands on them 

Looks like I'm only going to be shopping for one person when I go next year 

And leave Dawn alone

Should I open the POAU retail box??

[ECL]

very nice pulls!

[cardz_house]

It should be the same for everyone but the SS base set is the gold foil base set!!!

Better check your SS sets as they should be the gold foil variants!!!!!!

I checked it and I think it's normal SS foil set.
But I really like the gold poster set.....very nice looking!!! 

[HPfamily]

Now someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that the SS gold base set is the standard base set! It's the silver foil that is new for SS!

Yes,Gold foil is standard set.....so I got standard set and standard foil set.....
I wish I can get both POA AND GOF tin......but both are GOF.....

[ECL]

interesting, i didn't realize that the SS set was originally in gold.  The one I got in my mystery box has silver foil.  Unfortunately one of the cards on top of the pile has a dinged corner
