Those are the lite boxes. No guaranteed auto and less parallels.

Got one of my Star Wars Sapphire Boxes in today via USPS Rex3. The others should be here in hopefully tomorrow according to my usps alerts. The packing box had a small dent but luckily nothing was damaged. For those that were curious I went with the cheapest method for shipping. Hopefully I can keep them sealed as every pic I see makes me want to bust.

Posted in the Non Sports section as well but people seem to want to see boxes here too.

Amazing looking cards. Really took me back as I had these as a kid. Was hoping to get more portrait/actor cards but I'll take the Kenobi Red /5.

The red Ben is awesome.

These are cool looking didn’t get many portrait cards. Got the Vader. Nothing big.

Looks like a good box and the Kenobi is on set versus studio shot which imho works best for portrait cards.

Yeah, that'll do! Congrats (and good timing on Obi Wan).

Not a Star Wars fan at all, but also not one to flip boxes. Pretty sure I did well, but don’t know much beyond looking for cards 1-8 primarily. What I presume to be the best of my box (including a bonus color)…

1 box from MC. Happy with the results. Cards look great in hand!

I’ve been trying to get a sense of of where Obi Wan is from a hobby standpoint (I’m a so so Star Wars fan). Comparing to F1, if Luke is Lewis and Vader is Max, does that make Obi Wan Alonso???

Just watched your break video, really good stuff. Love the unintentional foreshadowing about liking the other Ben card pic better than the portrait.

Do they have their listing at a high price? Serial numbered different? If not, I would add it your listing description that you own the specific serial number.

watermarking photos with your ebay name usually stops this nonsense

Thanks, I actually like card #99 of Ben with the Lightsaber better then the one I pulled but I will take it.

I think the better portrait cards though are the studio ones so #57 for Luke and #58 for Han for example I would much prefer over cards #1 and #4.
