An Entertainment Weekly exclusive:

Newly created mockups of 1977 style Topps Stars Wars cards from Director JJ Abrams and Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy revealing the names of the characters seen in the now famous teaser trailer for the new Star Wars movie.

All are shown at the link, but here's my favorite.



The caption could have been "Kylo Ren Ignites a Controversy!", due to the design of the lightsaber, haha. Great name for this villain, and I like all of the others, too, all very Star Wars-sy.

It would be even cooler if these were on actual card stock (and issued to EW subscribers, which I have long been!). They did add some digital wear and tear to them for purposes of verisimilitude. Hopefully there will be more of these virtual beauties, if not the real thing, in this cherished design.

Oh, those are LOVELY! What a wonderful nostalgic look ... I think I'll go flip through my binder of 1970s Star Wars cards right now.
