Keep reading for more as well as a gallery.

The Basics: The Debut Medallions will return here -- a form of a Rookie Card logo -- for new, first-time characters' cards.

Update (July 25): Full info is in for this one. A typical breaker box will include six Pulsar parallels of cards from the 200-card set along with other inserts, the autos and base, while a breaker case will include three sketch cards. Hobby boxes will include one auto and four serial-numbered parallels along with the other basics and two sketch cards per case there.

The parallel lineup here is meaty -- see gallery -- with 20 Refractor versions per card and then a Hoth Ice Frozenfractor atop that. There also will be Aurebesh variations (/99) for all 200 cares with four parallels of those. Among the other inserts are Skeleton Crew, Acolyte and Outerworld Oddities and each of these will have Green (/99), Gold (/50), Orange (/25), Black (/10), Red (/5) and 1/1 Superfractors to chase. Joining them will be Star Wars By The Number line art cards that can be colored, Galactic Graffiti -- with Mini-Diamonds (/50), Mojo (/25), X-Fractor (/10), Wave (/5) and 1/1 Supers -- along with a Tribute to '75, which meshes Star Wars with the 1975 Topps baseball design (/75) with a Superfractor version as well as inked versions.  Rounding outage basic inserts will be Double Vision (/50) cards.

There will also be five "limited" insert sets -- Bonus Stage, Kyber Light, Reflections, Comicfractor and 1/1 One With The Force cards "showing characters final moments before become one with The Force."

The autograph lineup here will be simple -- character autos, dual and triple autos -- while sketch cards and printing plays book cards round out the hits. Among the signers here? Jude Law, Carrie-Anne Moss, Nick Frost, Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Natalie Portman, Samuel L. Jackson, Daisy Ridley and Pedro Pascal.
