The Rebel Base Card Podcast: Recent Episodes
Greg McLaughlin
We talk about trading cards, collecting and people in the Star Wars community. It's about enjoying your passion and discovering new aspects of a Galaxy far, far away.
You’ve seen the show, but sometimes you just need another helping. Because the Star Wars universe creates more canon and questions than you can imagine. So it’s time we sit down again. I’m your host, Greg McLaughlin and it’s time for a brand new micro podcast series: Second Breakfast! In this series we will revisit ANDOR Season 2 episode by episode. In this show we will be looking at Episode 2: Sagrona Teema.
With me as always, is my Breakfast Pack Co-host Gregory Cass from @eyeoncanon
And for this helping of second breakfast we are joined by first time guest Craig Dickenson of Reading Between the Reels.

FAX EXPO Chicago returns to the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois, just a few weeks after the National Sports Collectors Convention wrapped:
This show played host to many big name celebrities, panels, and catered to fans across many genres. I was able to talk with some old friends and make some new acquaintances. In Artist Alley, Nick and Candace Poblador from CN Factory were showing off the very latest screen prints that display a mash-up of Chicago elements and pop culture. I was also able to talk with Camron Johnson and Joe Corroney, and John Dizon. While over at the STAR WARS cosplay group’s area, Gemma Billings of the 501st Midwest Garrison talked about the Boba Fett display and the mission of the groups.

The 2025 National Sports Collectors Convention drew even larger crowds during its 5 day run at the Donald E. Stevens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois from July 30th to August 3rd. All kinds of cards and collectibles were up for sale or purchase. Card shops, card manufacturers, breakers, graders, sports figures, and content creators convened on the show floor and to help me recap all this action I was able to enlist some help:

Star Wars Celebration Japan is in the books and to help break down all the fun, excitement and announcements, I invited two people who were glued to all the feeds the whole weekend and brought back plenty of good notes. Literally pages of good notes. CWK and SW Community veteran Mary Purdue and Anthony King from FORCE GHOST CONVERSATIONS join me and help break it down day by day. t’s a fun conversation and it was great to get together, even if only on Zoom instead of in person.

A SUPERSIZED episode packed with tons of interviews with artists, authors, creators, cosplayers and collectors from the first day of C2E2 2025. This year the largest comic and pop culture convention in the region took place from April 11-13 at the McCormick Convention Center in downtown Chicago.
With panels from such massive fandoms as the Lord of the Rings, and a reunion of the cast of the 80’s movie The Breakfast Club, along with plenty of other celebrities on hand for autos and pictures, C2E2 was set to draw even larger crowds this year, as the numbers have been increasing exponentially since the close of the pandemic years where shows were postponed.
I was able to talk with folks I knew and have had on the show before, and talk to a bunch of new creators and people who were ready to show their wares to the fans coming in. A big thanks to all who gave me some of their time and were so awesome to peel back some of the curtain on how things work if you are there to show off your work. Plus plenty of tips for you if you want to attend and check out some of the show areas.
Check out the full list of people below and be sure to check out, like and subscribe their pages and social sites. They put a lot of hard work in to help make the fabric of the show so amazing.
Once again the 501st, Mandalorian Mercs, Rebel Legion was part of the Family HQ block and had some great displays set up for folks to take pictures.

The latest issue of (Apr/May 25) has a nice retrospective article on the Living Set, one year after the 500 card set came to a close. In 2019 Kris Penix was signed on to do 2 arts portraits of Star Wars characters that were made into cards featuring the classic 1977 design. Later on the run, Carlos Cabaleiro was added to the roster and he and Kris had an amazing run of work on the set. I was fortunate enough to be interviewed by writer Bryan Pillai for the piece along with both artists. The issue is on newsstands now.

In Homestead keeping we have another Topps release on the horizon with 2024 Masterwork slated for 4/16. Masterwork was one of the regular high end sets of the pre-pandemic era and was usually found at the end of the year.
Galactic Antiquities arrived in the Topps SWCT app.
The latest issue of (Apr/May 25) has a nice retrospective article on the Living Set, one year after the 500 card set came to a close. In 2019 Kris Penix was signed on to do 2 arts portraits of Star Wars characters that were made into cards featuring the classic 1977 design. Later on the run, Carlos Cabaleiro was added to the roster and he and Kris had an amazing run of work on the set. I was fortunate enough to be interviewed by writer Bryan Pillai for the piece along with both artists. The issue is on newsstands now.

Martin Nolan, who the SWCT Content Product manager, returns to the podcast to talk about the 10th Anniversary of Star Wars Card Trader. We talk about some of the changes in the app over the years as well as things they have been doing to celebrate the app turning 10. We had time to even get into some nuts and bolts of how some things in the app work. It was a great conversation and it’s been fun to talk to the people who are behind the scenes helping make the digital collection you can walk around with.

Star Wars™: Card Trader by Topps brings to life the entertaining and delightful collector experience to rip digital collectible packs every day, trade with Star Wars fans around the world, complete sets to earn rewards and much more."
My thanks to Gino, Lisa, Brandon, and all the folks at SWTC and Topps Digital for their work and support of the podcast through the years.As always you can find me in SWTC, and just about every Topps Digital app at CORNFEDTECH.

Designer & photographer Brian Hickey comes on the program to talk about his new Kickstarter campaign.
Total Star Wars Toys: The Palitoy Saga, is a book that takes an in-depth look at Palitoy’s role in the Star Wars toys phenomenon between 1977 and 1985.
There’s interviews with key figures at Palitoy, such as Bob Brechin Roger Morrison, and many more, including Jim Swearingen from Kenner. You are going to find out a lot of untold stories, see lots of pictures and get some of Brian’s own amazing toy photography. It’s the story from initial concepts to marketing campaigns, to variant toys that we didn’t see here in the U.S.
"Total Star Wars Toys" delves deep into the Palitoy story, revealing the challenges, triumphs, and behind-the-scenes details that made these toys so iconic.
When not creating books, Brian designs award winning exhibitions for museums and visitor experiences in Ireland's tourism and heritage sector.

A Star Wars insert podcast series that asks more questions than it answers -once again between Star Wars shows. Today on Hot Stove Breakfast pack #98- We are asking questions on the Andor Season 2 trailer, and a lot of other Star Wars news and notes that happened this week. So back on temporary loan from The Long Take Oscar marathon podcast party, is my co-host and card squadron winger Gregory Cass from eyeoncanon.com.

Pre-orders also went live for the next release of Star Wars Unlimited: Jump to Lightspeed which debuts on March 14th.
Flipside Gaming pre-order page
There are dual deck boxes pre-orders along with the pre-release box, booster box and starter packs - something for a lot of price points.

Steve Sansweet comes on the program to discuss the fall announcement of the Saga Museum of Star Wars Memorabilia.
The Founder and Chairman of Rancho Obi-Wan, the largest collection of Star Wars memorabilia aims to merge with other super collectors and create a dedicated space to house the combined collections which would operate as a museum. It would allow for more fans and visitors as well as offer educational programming. Their goal is to raise 2 million dollars in the next two years to achieve this goal.
Sansweet was kind enough to go into more detail on the project and what may come next.

Dan Zehr returns to the program to discuss the recent announcement of the Saga Museum of Star Wars Collectibles by Rancho Obi-Wan at their fundraising event recently.
The owners of the largest collection of Star Wars memorabilia aims to merge with other super collectors and create a dedicated space to house the combined collections which would operate as a museum. It would allow for more fans and visitors as well as offer educational programming. Their goal is to raise 2 million dollars in the next two years to achieve this goal.
As collectors and some fans start to grow older, it does beg the question of what is to become of these collections and should they be in a proper museum? And what about our own collections. You may not have a cool name for your Star Wars room/shelf, but what would be your plans for your prized possessions, once you have grown past them, or they, you.
Dan Zehr as you well know is the host of the popular Coffee with Kenobi podcast, which, along with its tie-in social media channels and the CWK Facebook group, has been talking Star Wars and fostering community for over 11 years. Dan has been out to Rancho Obi-Wan many times and has interviewed with Steven Sansweet on multiple occasions.

On September 12, 2024, Topps and Disney announced a new deal that would kind of change some of the landscape of trading cards to go forward. To continue the conversation from part 1 of our two-part episode talking about the impact of this deal across many parts of the hobby, I welcome another trio of guests to the podcast.
Sal Barry, from the Puck Junk Podcast is a lifelong hockey card collector who has a lot of insight on the hobby and Upper Deck.
Rodney Roberts is a sketch artist who has done work for both Topps and Upper Deck and can be heard regularly on Meanwhile at the Podcast.
And Anthony King, who was on recently talking about D23, & ICCC who is also a super-fan and collector of Disney and Lucasfilm collectibles.
If you haven’t had a chance yet to listen to part one, make sure you check out episode 167.

On September 12th Topps announced a new partnership with Disney to create physical cards for Disney, Pixar and Marvel globally starting in 2025. Currently Upper Deck has had some of those rights in the U.S.
Starting with Topps Finest X-Men ’97 in Q1 2025, it will be a new era for Marvel cards, as well as a larger number of IP’s under the Fanatics roof. Although the impact for Star Wars card collectors may not be seen, a lot of this change affects the hobby around us.
To help analyze the changes I invited Ian Taylor of the Marvel Card Collectors Podcast, Stephanie Garcia of Mamabreaks and sketch artist Michael Munshaw on for part one of a two part special on this new card landscape.

Anthony King returns to the podcast having recently returned from Anaheim, California and the big D23 Event that took place at the Convention Center there with other events taking place at the nearby Honda Center.
Having not known too much about the workings of such an event, I asked Anthony to come on and help me make the case why I should be planning on attending future D23’s. It’s a nice compliment to his recent D23 Extravaganza podcast episode.

Talked about many times, my Breakfast Pack Co-Host and Card Squadron winger Gregory ‘Gains Bounty’ Cass from @eyeoncanon returns to talk about Fantasy Flight Game’s foray back into the world of TCG’s - STAR WARS UNLIMITED. Greg recently hosted a sealed draft night and returns to the podcast to tell the tales and talk about our thoughts on the game.
Plus we have extra special guests -the first is one half of the long running Podcast, THE WAMPA’s LAIR, Karl ‘Fell the Dragon’ LaClair is here and our panel rounds out with friend of the show and Google Sheet extraordinaire Ben ‘Epic Action’ Brophy aka @zenkenobi
In late 2023 Fantasy Flight games, no stranger to Star Wars card games, released Star Wars Unlimited, a new collectible card game that pits two or more players in combat to see who can outwit and outlast the other. Chosing a Leader and a base, players build decks around different aspects and square off against each other using ground and space units, upgrades, events bounties and smuggling in attempt to destroy their opponent’s base. Each round, players draw cards, add resources to play more powerful cards, counter their opponents moves and ready leaders to turn the tide of the game.
Since this is a collectible card game like Magic, Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, you can begin with a starter deck and build decks of your own through booster packs and boxes. Stores can host events with special pack giveaways and major conventions across the U.S. have seen event exclusives which lure collectors in droves.
The first set, Spark of the Rebellion quickly became popular and hard to find soon after its release. The second set, Shadows of the Galaxy has explained the gameplay somewhat, and has helped sustain the game’s popularity. FFG did put out a roadmap earlier and announced their development schedule which puts about 3 sets or seasons out per year.
In November we will return to the prequels with ‘Twilight of the Republic.
In 2025 the three sets announced are Jump to Lightspeed, Legends of the Force, and Secrets of Power.

Just a few highlights from this year’s Fan Expo Chicago, held at the Donald E. Stephen’s Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois. A packed house that filled the vendor section, artist alley, autograph zone and the community areas.
Ran into a few folks, including Victor from @fandads, Todd From @bigtlilt & @WSTRmedia
And a Nick & Candace from @Cnfactorychi
Note: since artist alley was packed, I dug into the archives and pulled up a little audio of myself and Nick Poblador talking about the process behind the screenprints he had on display.

Our featured interview is with collector Justin Krohn, who joined me for a break of the new 2024 Topps Chrome Star Wars on an Instagram live stream and then came on the podcast to give his review of the cards we looked at as well as more about his collection and what are his card interests. It’s a full hour of card hobby goodness!

The 2023 National Sports Collectors Convention could go down as one of the largest ever for the 43 year old event, if not largest in some time.
Taking nearly all the bottom floor of the Donald E. Stephen’s Convention Center in Rosemont Illinois, this 5 day event is drawing large crowds from all over. All kinds of cards and collectibles were up for sale or purchase. Card shops, card manufacturers, breakers, graders, sports figures, and content creators kept the mood as high as the temperature was getting on the show floors.
Although a shorter stay than I originally planned, I was able to talk with Mike Sommer of the Wax Pack Hero podcast as well as Andy Broome of CGC cards, Sal Barry of the PuckJunk.com and Topps artist Josh Trout.
By no means an extensive dive into all of what this show had to offer, I hope it gives you an idea of the size and scope and maybe entice you to see the show next year.

Dappz also wanted to talk about a recent collaboration with Dave and Adams to put up a 15 thousand dollar bounty on a one of one Diego Luna special auto.
Always up to learn more about the hobby, I couldn’t say no to the opportunity to get to talk with him about what he does and this card bounty. And since I was planning on attending the national myself, seemed like the stars were just aligning right for us to sit down across the zoom and talk a little cards.
I hope you enjoy this episode. As we are getting close to the big show, I will forgo Homestead keeping this time around, but promise I have plenty of goodness and news collected over the summer and more coming down the road on the 40th anniversary of Return of the Jedi.

This is the second of two parts celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the 1993 release of Topps Star Wars Galaxy. That spring, Topps launched its first Star Wars product in a decade, after the movie tie in cards and products of Return of the Jedi.
In part one we talked to Sean Taggart who was the Topps project manager for the first Galaxy set, under the direction of Gary Gerani.
Tonight on the program we talk with several guests who can give us a wide scope of how the hobby was at the time of the first galaxy release, to the modern Chrome Galaxy cards of today.

In the spring of 1993 Topps launched its first Star Wars product in 10 years, since the last cards, stickers and candy were gobbled up by kids after the Return of the Jedi (now passing the 40 year mark). The folks from Topps had a bold idea, to feature an entire set dedicated to the art of the famous trilogy, plus bring in new art from renowned comic artists of the time which would help define a new interpretation for the trilogy and become a classic, which would not only spawn 9 future sequels, but arguably set the stage for bringing a steady flow of Star Wars cards for the next 30 years.
Tonight in part one of a two part series we get a unique and inside look in to the making of that historic set with our guest, artist Sean Taggart who was the Topps Project Manager for Star Wars Galaxy 1.
Instagram: @seantaggart https://seantaggart.com
In part 2 we will feature several more guests who can give us a wide breath of how the hobby was at the time of the first galaxy release to the modern Chrome Galaxy cards of today. The influences on the hobby and those who might pick up a pencil and start making their own dent in the art universe.
Tonight we have another artist spotlight. Robert Jimé on the show. He is a fantastic artist who has another set of pulp cover cards coming out in Star Wars Card Trader, and that is among the many other projects he is working on is . If you are on the socials you can find him and his work under the Zerostreet handle or if you go to zerostreet.shop online you can see a lot of his distinctive work. Considering that we are not too far from the release of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, his work on the pulp covers and his style fits in perfectly to the aesthetic.
From His Bio:
“Robert’s imagination and desire to draw were first fueled by his frequent visits to the corner newsstand in his Brooklyn neighborhood to purchase comic books, especially those that featured the art of Neal Adams, George Perez, and Jim Aparo. Later, the films seen on local TV, everything from the comedies of Abbott & Costello and The Marx Brothers, B Monster movies, and especially the Planet of the Apes series, left a definite imprint in his work. Incorporating an ever-growing cast of Apes, Tikis, and appearances from the likes of Doc Savage, Tarzan, The Shadow, and more, he is creating a unique narrative through his paintings and sculptures.
Robert’s work has appeared on album covers for Gold Dust Lounge and Stolen Idols and in magazines such as Exotica Moderne, Tiki Magazine, PKD Otaku, Gnarly and Pinstriping & Kustom Graphics. His work is also featured in the books, THE THING:ARTBOOK, VISIONS FROM THE UPSIDE DOWN: STRANGER THINGS ARTBOOK, GHOSTBUSTERS: ARTBOOK and has shown in galleries including Disneyland’s Wonderground, Harold Golen, M Modern, Creature Features, and Bear & Bird among others.
You can also see Robert’s work in trading card sets for licenses such as Garbage Pail Kids, Wacky Packages, Mars Attacks, Star Wars, DC Comics, Firefly, Ghostbusters, Adventure Time and more. Most notably Robert has recently illustrated cards for the Star Wars Trading Card App.”
Speaking of Indy, I had a blast talking with Dan Zehr on Coffee with Kenobi about the Last Crusade as part of his series on the films leading up to the premiere. It was fun talking with him and Dennis Keithly from Podcast Stardust on that show.

The ICCC or Imperial Commissary Collectors Convention is a sci-fi and pop culture convention that brings a lot of great convention aspects in a package that’s easy on the budget. Moved out of Nashville where they were busting at the seems, they landed at the Farm Bureau Expo Center just east of the airport in the city of Lebanon which is now where you find the Tennessee State Fair.
The Expo center, formerly the Wilson County Expo, is a 275 acre complex that allowed this hotel bound convention room to grow, having a large center complex for vendors, artists, droid and prop builders as well as large convention set pieces, separate areas for large celeb auto and picture seekers, plus whole buildings devoted to panels, podcasts, covered areas for live bands, lots of food trucks and well there was a demolition derby and helicopter rides. I don’t think you would have seen anything like this at celebration.
I was able to get a press badge from ICCC which gave me some access to the Friday VIP day and was able to talk to a lot more people, over the three days, May 26th to the 28th.
If you are familiar with the podcast, you know then that these types of shows feature guests in small interview portions, since people got stuff to do. I couldn’t talk to everyone, and it seemed like I was gonna try, but I hope with this you get a flavor of the event

For May the 4th it’s Homestead keeping, a regular segment within most of the base shows, but since there was a bunch of little bits I’ve recorded over the past few weeks, as Mandalorian came to a close, it made since to coming them into one show, as we get closer to the Galaxy Anniversary show, which wouldn’t have much more room, as it will be crammed with awesome interviews from a good group of folks.On the program:David NicelyJenny RiddleKara DJSam TashimaRomeo OrtizDavid NicelyInstagram@dln619Jenny Riddle501st Alabama Garrisonhttp://www.empirestrikesbama.comTranquility Basehttps://rebellegion.com/tranquility-base/Star Wars CCG Players Council & Card Resourceshttps://www.starwarsccg.orgKara DJInto a Larger world Fanzine https://campsite.bio/intoalargerworldbykaraSam Tashima Instagram@tashi_stationRomeo OrtizInstagram @rpg_la@vintagestarwarsclub@gonktoyshttps://linktr.ee/gonktoys?fbclid=PAAabrtG3JDvNyMRPdofW3JQh9Lp-TDMLd56UvSCMlfy8byIQC95Aec31yLGAHuntsville Comic & Pop Culture Expohttps://www.hsvexpo.comIn this show, as you heard from the intro, I spent a little time at the Huntsville Comic & Pop Culture Expo in Huntsville, Alabama. I got to catch up with Franc and Amy Mulder as well as finally meeting one of the members of Card Squadron, David Nicely, who was on the program, waaaayyy back in episode 59. In addition to David, I talked with Jenny Riddle, a cosplayer from the Rebel Legion at Tranquilty Base in Alabama who was trooping with the 501st members of the Alabama Garrison. They had a nice display with some droids from the local Droidbuilder chapter.Kara DJ stops by for a minute on the program. The driving force behind the ‘Into a Larger World’ Fanzine. Kara was on the program in episode 103. She gives a nice overview of her time in London at Celebration Europe and a little news on the next issues of the zine, due out later this year.Sam Tashima, our roving Star Wars CCG player and reporter also drops by to give us an overview of the 2023 Nationals held in Minnesota not long ago, and some dates for the upcoming tourneys for the classic Decipher card game, that is driven by the Players committee.Finally, since we are celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Return of the Jedi later this month, the film was re-released back in a selection of theaters. Many of you in the community did have a chance to see it and was lucky enough to find some time myself. Romeo Ortiz, from the Vintage Star Wars club has been doing some cool video interviews for his instagram channel and while we were doing another segment, I rolled tape on our conversation of seeing the film back on the big screen.

A short & sweet episode with audio from a large local card and auto show here in the Chicagoland area. It’s a nice prep for C2 and it’s always fun to find non-sports goodness in a sports show.The Chicago Sports Spectacular is a show that takes place 2-3 times a year at the Donald E. Stephans Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois. It typically features many sports and entertainment autograph opportunities plus fields a health vendor area for card and sports collectible seekers, plus of late, more places to submit cards and autos for authentication and grading.https://chicagosportsspectacular.comFrom the site:“The Chicago Sports Spectacular is a 350+ vendor table show selling sports and non-sports memorabilia & collectibles. We feature sports athletes, Hollywood stars and other interesting TV personalities who sign autographs and participate in photo opportunities (photo ops). Don't miss our shows every Nov. and March, and occasionally a smaller summer show.”I ran into my collector friend Karl Schmidt, aka @pilo64 who was waiting on the opportunity to have Hall of Famer Bobby Orr autograph a puck he had. Orr, better known for his days with the Boston Bruins, had played for a time with the Chicago BlackhawksI also found a vendor, Gary Bergquist, who had a very nice table of Non-sport cards and boxes, probably one of the better non-sport offerings at sports card show. Him and his wife were kind enough to talk for a few minutes on a very hectic Saturday afternoon. Inquires for Gary: BergquistGaryD@gmail.comAlthough pretty busy at his booth, Topps artist Josh Trout showed me a few of the items he had brought with him from his home in Omaha. Although he does mainly sports sketches for Topps, he did get in a handful of Sketchcards for the Masterwork 2022 Set for Star Wars..On Instagram @jtroutpaintingsHomestead keeping:Small for this mini episode, but the checklist card for the Swag Pack series 4 did arrive, which means it’s time to wrap packs for upcoming cons!

Another great double feature on the Breakfast Pack with my friend and co-host, Gregory Cass from eyeoncanon.com - Last week we again tackled both Batch and Mando in a supersized show, as ‘The Convert,’ episode 3 from the new season of The Mandalorian was itself an hour long this week.

Ian Taylor of the Marvel Card Collectors Podcast and Marvel Facebook groups returns to talk about the state of collecting at this time and how a collector can go through phases in their collecting journey, whether they really be cards or not. Both the MCCP and my podcast started about the same time and much has changed in the hobby on the Marvel and Star Wars side since that time. This is a relaxed conversation and the second meeting for us this year as I was recently on his show a few weeks back, Episode #162 .On the Homestead Keeping segment, I go over the latest online releases of Topps Star Wars Cards and talk a bit about the ‘Breakfast Pack’ Schedule for the rest of the month, while both the Bad Batch and Mandalorian overlap.MCC Podcast feed:https://anchor.fm/mccpMarvel Card Collectors Podcast Facebook pagehttps://www.facebook.com/TheMCCPod/Marvel Card Collectors Worldwide Facebook page:https://www.facebook.com/groups/MTCCW/?ref=shareInstagram/Twitter@themccpodIan Taylor Instagram: @black_cat_collector

On this special episode I spend some time with a couple who has a new book coming out this summer on the Star Wars radio dramas that were on NPR back in the 80’s and 90’s. The book is titled ‘The Winds that Shook the Stars,’ and both authors, John & Mary Jo Tetuno talk about a little about how these came to be and how the book came together.From the description:‘A comprehensive history of the Star Wars audio dramas. An expanded radio dramatization of the original Star Wars trilogy, produced in 1981, 1983, and 1996 respectively, produced and broadcast by National Public Radio as part of NPR Playhouse. These radio serials were made with the full co-operation of George Lucas, who for one dollar each sold the rights to KUSC-FM, the public radio affiliate at his alma mater, the University of Southern California. Lucas also allowed the use of original sound effects and music from the films. A Wind To Shake The Stars explores the creative origins, production and legacy of this oft-forgotten chapter of Star Wars history.’Available for pre-order now.Release date: 7/25/23Link to the Amazon pre-order pageHomestead keeping:Latest Topps Online offerings:https://www.topps.com/cards-collectibles.html?property=11233“Topps Star Wars Throwback Thursday!This exciting collaboration features your favorite Star Wars characters on some of the most beloved designs from Topps' design archive.3 new cards launch every Thursday!• Look for 1:20 Short-print Photo Variation each week • Look for numbered parallels Bronze /10, Silver /5, and Gold /1 • 18pt Heritage style premium stockChecklist:1 Princess Leia2 Darth Vader-Shortprint variant3 Luke Skywalker4 Stormtrooper5 Boba Fett6 C-3PO7 R2-D28 Yoda9 Obi-Wan Kenobi10 Mace Windu11 Ashoka Tano-Shortprint variant12 Lando Calrissian13 Darth Maul14 Padme - Shortprint variant15 Jan ErsoTopps Throwback Thursday celebrates seminal artwork from the over 80 year history of an iconic and innovative American brand.

It’s that time of the year again. Every year I’ve done the show I’ve been able to sneak into the schedule of the busiest person in the Star Wars galaxy and one of my favorite people in fandom, Mark Newbold of Fantha tracks. He returns to the show to talk about the upcoming CELEBRATION EUROPE and give you some nice insight. I was also curious what he thought of the recent climate of the franchise and what we could be looking to expect to come from the ExCel London. If you’re familiar with Mark, then you know this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.Mark’s been writing since the early 80's and has contributed for various publications about Star Wars and Star Trek since the mid 90's. You have seen his work in Star Wars Insider Magazine since '06, and after years with the online site Jedi News, he helped create Fantha Tracks in 2017, which to this very day/minute and second, covers all aspects of the Star Wars universe. With co-host Mark Mulcaster, Making Tracks is one of the many fine Fantha Tracks podcasts which should be a staple in your weekly playlists and is no stranger to a CELEBRATION Podcast stage.Mark is on Twitter and Instagram @Prefect_Timing.Fantha Tracks onlinewww.fanthatracks.comFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/fanthatracks/YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/fanthatrackstvPintrest:https://www.pinterest.co.uk/fanthatracks/Homestead Keeping:In our Homestead Keeping segment, special guest Sam Tashima from @tashi_station gives us an update on the many events planned this year for the fan supported Star Wars Card Customizable Card Game.

There are no points, bonuses, lighting rounds or phone a friend, but as in the past, there will be guests we hope to bring on during the season who will help us from time to time get through all this. After this episode, there will be what we like to call the ‘Greg’s List’ which is a selection of podcasts and other assorted media we will ingest - after we record to see if they have answered any of our questions and then some.

First released in 1995 The Star Wars Customizable Card game from Decipher came at a time when things like Magic the Gathering showed just how popular this type of gaming was. Over the next several years, the SWCCG game out with a number of releases that went past the basic set and covered a number of properties including Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi and the Phantom Menace. In 2001 Lucasfilm didn’t renew Decipher’s license but it wasn’t the end of the story for this popular game. As we will find out tonight- much like Darth Maul, it just keeps fighting on.

The show has works like this; we will all take turns asking questions on the episode, that we have not talked about yet. The fun part is often these questions spur some great conversation, and all pressure is off to get the right answer, because, well, that’s why we listen to other podcasts. It’s often fun because, there is a chance one could take another’s question. So you better have a back-up or two, and need to be, as Luke said, ‘ ready for anything.’

As we get through the winter, one of the things that I look forward to, is me chasing down the busiest person in the Star Wars galaxy and one of my favorite people in fandom, Mark Newbold of Fantha tracks.
He’s been writing since the early 80's and has contributed for various publications about Star Wars and Star Trek since the mid 90's. You have seen his work in Star Wars Insider Magazine since '06, and after years with the online site Jedi News, he helped create Fantha Tracks in 2017, which to this very day/minute and second, covers all aspects of the Star Wars universe.
With co-host Mark Mulcaster, Making Tracks is one of the many fine Fantha Tracks podcasts which should be a staple in your weekly playlists. Mark returns to the show to give us his take on the past year and what’s to come.
In our Homestead keeping section of news and notes we talk about the latest Signature Series release from Topps.

Our 100th Episode comes on June 13th, which is the anniversary of Ralph McQuarrie’s birth in 1929. Although Ralph is no longer here in person, his work will likely live on for ages to come. His influence and mark on this franchise and all of us is immeasurable. So to celebrate Ralph and our own modest mark of 100 shows, I wanted to bring you some conversations and remarks on Ralph that I have gathered over the past year from a range of folks.

Fabio Fiori from Tatooine Times and I do a joint interview with renowned artist Greg Hildebrandt on the occasion of the 25th Anniversary of the Shadows of the Empire, the ‘movie without a movie,’ launched by Lucasfilm in the spring of 1996. There was a novel by Steve Perry for Del Rey, a comic adaptation by Dark Horse, a video game for the Nintendo 64, a toy line by Kenner, a Soundtrack and of course, a Topps Card set.
Greg, and his brother Tim, were tapped to produce 100 paintings for their portion of the event for Topps. The set would debut in September of that year and their turnaround time for completion of the work was only 4 and a half months. But short deadlines were nothing new to the brothers and they turned out an amazing set of paintings used for the card set.
In addition to portions of this interview, Fabio will have a number of special articles and interviews covering the full spectrum of the 25th Anniversary of Shadows of the Empire that will appear on Tatooine Times starting the week of May 10th.

Well welcome to Batch for Breakfast: a micro series from the Rebel Base card.
This special series will try to make it through the entire first season of the bad batch and hopefully inspire, entertain and uplift? Nah, who we kidding? We are the water cooler discussion on Monday morning. You know, the one with that person in the office who you talk star wars to, but is not quite as hard core as you.
Gregory Cass from @eyeoncanon on Instagram and Twitter - and who was also on the show last year on Episode 65 of the podcast is back to help me christen this new mini series that takes a look at the Bad Batch with questions WE want to know and hope other BETTER podcasts figure out.
Very excited to have Fabio Fiori join me again on the program, as we do this preview of our upcoming conversation with artist Greg Hildebrandt. We had the opportunity to come together and talk with the famed artist about the work the Hildebrandt brothers did on the Topps set back in 1996, this year celebrating its 25th Anniversary. As Fabio is so great to talk to, I decided to release part of our conversation as a preview episode for next week’s show.
Greg and his brother Tim were tapped to produce 100 paintings for their portion of the event for Lucasfilm’s ‘Movie without a Movie, in 1996. Shadows of the Empire was a novel by Steve Perry for Del Rey, a comic adaptation by Dark Horse, a video game for the Nintendo 64, a toy line by Kenner, a Soundtrack and of course, a Topps Card set.

Very happy to have on the program author John Scoleri, who talks about his Star Wars journey and the effort to bring the first comprehensive Art of Ralph McQuarrie books to life. Released in 2007 ‘The Art of Ralph McQuarrie by John Scoleri and Stan Stice was a mammoth 12’’x 15’’ 400 page tome, limited to just 2000 copies, which was the culmination of an incredible amount of work, passion, belief in the cause, and a little good luck thrown in for good measure. The FORCE was certainly with them. A lot of what you can find today on shelves concerning McQuarrie’s work owes a lot to the groundwork John and Stan laid with that first book.
John Scoleri and Stan Stice began working with Ralph McQuarrie in 1996. In 2006 they launched Dreams and Visions Press to publish The Art of Ralph McQuarrie. John has gone on to write several more books on McQuarrie, including The Art of Ralph McQuarrie: ARCHIVES (Dreams and Visions Press, 2015). He also produced the DVDs Ralph McQuarrie: Illustrator (2002) and Caroline Munro: First Lady of Fantasy (2004). In 2019 he launched Cimarron Street Books to publish the magazine bare•bones and the collected works of award-winning author/screenwriter David J. Schow. He is currently at work on Latent Images (Dreams & Visions Press, 2021), a photographic retrospective of Night of the Living Dead (1968).

We catch up with Curtis Smith from the Instagram account Star Wars Poetry.
He was one of my first guests when i started the podcast portion of this venture two years ago, and when he recently mentioned on his channel that he wanted to make the rounds again, i wanted to get my name on the list. since that first foray of his that combined his short style haiku and limericks, along with collaborations with sketch card artists, making an awesome use of the Instagram format, he has added video readings and reels on Instagram which are another and creative way to repurpose the content. We had a great conversation, he of course had some poems to read and i think has some great insight into using the social platforms, not only for a way to grow the audience, but cultivate an active one. It’s the support and feedback from our audiences that help all of us keep doing what we do.

Joey Shiver, better known to most as Dub Mentality is a freelance writer for Beckett Media and a blogger who takes a great approach to talk about collecting and, well, life in general. His personal stories, woven with information on sports card sets, to me, really breaks it all down and takes our hobby back to the basics. In a time where we see a lot of attention both good and bad being focused on collecting, pricing, selling and speculation, I think it’s good to get another perspective and voice from the sports card world as we all move into new collecting territory.

Arie Kaplan is an award winning author, having an incredible body of work that goes into television, books, comic books video games and even trading cards. It was though the latter and a chance tweet that helped us crossed paths, as Kaplan wrote the text for the back of the Topps ‘Journey of the Child’ set that was released in April of this year. Kaplan was kind enough to give me some time to talk about how his career has come together, how he approaches all the different mediums and how he got to be a part of the phenomenon that is ‘The Child.’

A great episode I hope you don’t miss.
Based in Orlando, Tobias is on the sketch card rosters of Topps, Rittenhouse & Cryptozoic. A freelance artist, illustrator and graphic designer, he also works in merchandising at Walt Disney's Magic Kingdom.

On the program we visit with Stephen (Steve) Brownlie from Glasgow, Scotland. A big Star Wars and movie fan, he began making his own custom trading cards as a cheaper way to seek out autographs by mail, since the shipping and customs fees often dwarfed the cost of the autograph itself. Little by little he began creating more cards of actors who were on the convention circuit and for movies that didn’t have cards of their own. Due to the demand of other folks who liked his creations, he opened up a storefront so people could order more easily. We talk growing up with Star Wars, trading cards and the process of making his own entry into the card universe.

Setting the table for 2020 with guest Tom Gross, newsman for the ‘Coffee with Kenobi’ podcast as he talks about the upcoming event at Washington Community High School, in Washington, Illinois - S.T.E.A.M. into Star Wars. You probably know the podcast, but you may not know that Tom is also the Librarian for WCHS and Dan Zehr from the podcast is a teacher from that same school.
It’s a free event sponsored by the school for the whole family and will feature local artists, authors and podcasters and have Star Wars themed arts and crafts for the Kids. Members of the 501st will also be on hand showing a little how their costumes are made.
I have been invited and will be podcasting from there as well.
The event is Saturday, January 11th from 9:30-1.

Kareem Dharsee is a member of ORDER 416, a Toronto based cosplay group. He goes into how they formed, his take on Star Wars Cosplay and his excitement on getting to be a part of the Salaam Fandom panel at the recent NY City Comic-Con.
I first met Kareem, Daniel and Reno at Star Wars Celebration and featured a brief conversation with them on Episode 7, the Celebration episode. Although there are many official and unofficial cosplay groups, I like the openness, and welcoming and fun aspect they bring to the fandom.
Since Celebration, I have seen a number of great characters featured by Kareem and Order 416 on his Instagram page, @kareems.dreams as well as the ORDER 416 one. We learn about his experience there and more about his journey and of course the cos and cross play.

Show notes for Episode 30: Josh Berling
Friend of the show Josh Berling is back and gives us an update on his year-long quest to compete the Star Wars Canon before the release of the Rise of Skywalker in December.
We first heard from Josh back during our Celebration Episode in April (#7) and then again in June at our visit to Joliet’s Star Wars Day (#11). Over the course of time he has been working from a master spreadsheet that he has a link to on his Instagram page, @consumethecanon.

I am a big fan of folks in our community who are doing cool projects like this. Plus we learn a lot about how to use apps and you local library to check out books, trade paperbacks, audiobooks, etc. and really cut down on the cost of enjoying content from a galaxy far, far away.
I hope you enjoy this interview and don’t forget to give him a follow.

I talk to a bunch of awesome people who recently displayed their goods at a couple of local comic cons here and in California.
First up is a return guest, Dawn Murphy who along with some of the others tonight, were recently at Orland Park Public Library’s Comic Con. She is followed up by Illustrator Raz Ortiz, Nick from CNFactory, and Lydia Koranda and her niece Sofia, a super talented 11 year old who can draw with the best of them.
The second half of the show we chat with Tracy Medina about her first show at the Final Friday art by the bridge in Redding California. We do a little postgame on how she did and find out a little more about her work.
I will post these links on the website as well at www.rebelbasecard.com
My thanks to all in this episode for giving me their time.

We talk with Kevin Munnings of Tusken Trader Company or @tuskentraderco on Instagram about the Mexican versions of the Topps Star Wars cards that were released in the late 70’s. Due to many reasons, including the number of cards per pack, the gum included and the general availability, they were not easy to come by and very rare to find these days without paying a pretty penny.
Kevin has put a ton of effort into reproducing the cards digitally so you can see what the cards and boxes looked like and if you want you can buy and print sheets for yourself. He does mini sized versions and even some cool LEGO diorama cards that would make a great addition to anyone’s collection.

We turn to the ‘Light Side’ literally this episode to talk with Jamie Cosley, the artist of said comic that appears monthly in Star Wars Insider Magazine.
In addition to his cartoons, he has worked on sketch cards for Topps for Star Wars and Stranger Things and has some TMNT ones coming soon. He also has done work for Upper Deck, Highlights, WDW magazine and book illustrations as well, so to say I was grateful he gave me some of his time is an understatement.

We get down to basics and talk about getting your Star Wars card collection going and how to go about it. Why do we collect? Where do we buy cards? Which cards should we get? How much am I spending? How do I take care of my collection? Should I get everything? Look, although your collection is inherently yours, there are some things you may want to consider before you dive in for the first time, or dive back in. I don’t have all the answers, but I can talk about the way I collect and some things I might have done differently if I started over again. I enjoy opening packs, assembling a base set, and occasionally finding a cool autograph or sketch card. I sometimes buy full sets from eBay, sometimes from folks I find in collecting groups. There’s a lot of ways to do it.
First and foremost, I hope you collect for fun. That’s why I got into it back in the day, and why I got back into it a number of years ago. I hope you enjoy the episode. It’s a little evergreen, meaning, that someone could find this a year or more from now, and still get something out of it. That was the intention.

A slight diversion this episode as we had the chance to talk with Bobby and Nadia of the Galaxy’s Edge Explorers Instagram channel. They have been doing some amazing work letting people know all about the new park and have visited a number of times already.
If you have had any interest in going, and wanted to get some perspective from folks who have seen the park on more than one occasion, this is the conversation for you!
Card collecting wise, we will call this a ‘Community Insert.’
In the coming weeks, we will have another ‘Artist Insert’ as Topps artist Kris Penix will talk about his Star Wars Living Set and how that all came about.

We also have recorded an interview with artist Dawn Murphy. She will talk about her artistic career and will appear at Orland Park Library Comic Con on July 20th.

Ben AbuSaada is a Topps & Upper Deck Sketch card artist who has been doing cards since Rogue One. He also had a base card in this most recent Topps Galaxy set. A native of the Kansas City suburbs he is as passionate about Star Wars as he is about his Royals. he talked a little about his work and process and how he got started. You can find him online at the handle @ksgeekman on Instagram and Twitter, and on Facebook at KS Geek Man.
Finally made it to Star Wars Celebration at McCormick Place in Chicago. I was able to talk with Cosplayers Anna Sawyer and Tom Rehn, as well as Daniel, Kareem, and Reno of Order 416 out of Toronto. Also we hear from Josh of Consume the Canon on his project to take in all the canon before Episode 9 premieres in December. Finally some thoughts on Celebration from friend of the show Mike. I think their stories provide some interesting color to the massive canvas that this show paints across all of Star Wars fandom. You can find Anna Sawyer on Facebook and Instagram at asawyercostumes, Tom Rehn at civilizedgalacticgear.com. Order 416 on Facebook and Instagram at the same handle. Josh Berling at @consumethecanon on Instagram and YouTube. Mike @vlix1982 on Instagram.
We start with the second half of my C2/E2 experience in how it will shape the approach to the upcoming Celebration. Some things I took away insofar as how one gets to the event, figure out how to go through your list of things to see and take care of yourself. Part two of the podcast is a small part of the interview I was able to do with Topps sketch card artist Ben AbuSaada who will be at SWCC as an attendee. He’ll give some thoughts on how he does cons and tips on visiting artists who booth there. This was part of a larger interview that will be a future episode, but it made sense to put this bit here. You can follow Ben on Instagram at @ksgeekman and Facebook at KS Geek Man.
Our findings and impressions of Chicago’s Premiere Pop Culture fest. On opening day we checked out the show floor to see what Star Wars goodness we could find as well as some celebrity and artist autograph hunts. We also talk with a couple of the 501st Midwest Garrison troop and the Joliet Public Library folks who were there to talk about the upcoming Star Wars Day.
On the cusp of C2/E2 we get ready to hunt autographs and decide who we may want to see and meet. Also an update on podcast distribution.
Learning more about the O-Pee-Chee variants to the vintage sets and more news about the podcast and upcoming conventions.
Getting our feet wet into this podcast, I lay down some of the goals for the podcast, a little about my collection and what’s happening next.
