Box 3

26 green parallel base cards
9 foil parallel base cards
1 orange parallel base card
6 Charting the Galaxy cards
6 Lightsabers of the Jedi cards
6 Adventures of Han Solo cards

I didn't pick up on it before mixing the three box breaks, but I also have one base card short print, Reb-2S Princess Leia Organa.
If anyone is checking the math, the number of cards per box don't match each other. There was a pack in the first box that contained 12 cards instead of 8.
I did complete a base set from the three boxes. I have all of the Lightsabers of the Jedi cards, 18 of 20 Adventures of Han Solo cards and 18 of 20 Charting the Galaxy cards. The collation worked out well.
The set is a retread of Galactic Files right down to the bar graph on the card back rating each character's qualities Force Power, Intelligence, Diplomacy, Strength, Speed and Fighting Ability.
