Scifi CardsStar Wars Resistance a Retail Set for Young and Old Alike
From "The Newsletter"

Topps brings us a retail-focused product line for the newest Star Wars offering, Resistance. Yes, it’s a kids show but the animated Star Wars has always been popular with old and young collectors. Look for 3 different package options. Here’s the details:
100 Card Base Set
Parallels: Bronze /50, Silver /25, Gold /10, Red 1/1, Printing Plates 1/1
Foil Character Cards
Temporary Tattoos
Pop Up Cards
Display Boxes: 6 Cards Per Pack / 24 Packs Per Box / 12 Boxes Per Case
Hanger Packs: 3 Packs of 6 Cards, plus 1 of 4 different 40 Page Mini Album. 8 Hangers Per Box / 8 Boxes per Case
Blaster Boxes: 6 Packs of 6 Cards, plus 1 Character Dangler per box. 16 Boxes Per Case
The Star Wars Rebels was a similar set and is not pretty hard to find as it was aimed at kids. I expect this one will be the same way in the long run.
What I don't understand is the parallels. No need for 1/1's, or ANY parallels, in a kid's product.
That said, looks like fun whether you order from a Friendly Dealer™ or pick them up with your kids at Target and Wal-Mart.

TOPPS knows that adult card collectors roam the retail toy aisles looking for cheap packs/boxes/blasters to bust while using their kids as an excuse.

It's a smart move if you ask me.

webjonFantastic to see a release aimed at kids, and the danglers seem like a cool idea.
Thanks for posting, Ed!
