Sure, here were 2 hobby boxes:



Also got 17 different refractors, plus 5 doubles of those, shown here:



Sold the little Leia autograph and the Kylo Ren 1st appearance to get back most of what the hobby boxes cost, but I didn't have a full base set, so I bought 5 blasters. Got closer, but still not there with 91/100 towards completion.

Here's the 10 Purple Wave refractors from the blasters:

Chess...

Shoot me an email with your base wants.

My collation was horrible, but I have about 2000 spare base that won't make sets. Might have what you need.

I got a surprise blaster box for my birthday. Xtime noted that you can get 4-5 cards per pack but the first one I opened had only three. The next pack had 5, though.

32 base
3 Grogu
2 Monikers
1 Manga Madness
2 purple refractors
1 ROJ40

As I read the breakdown on the Topps site, you can get a ROJ40 card 1 per 2 1/2 blaster boxes so I got lucky there. I pulled an ROJ40-1 (R2D2). Where the card looks blue, especially in the border areas, it actually exhibits a refractor effect off of silver as you turn it.

I opened 4 blaster boxes of this series. With help from trades I was able to complete a base set. Still need some of the ROJ40 cards. My boxes did have a higher amount of Monikers than the odds indicate. Some of those Monikers are for trade.
