Card #140: Checklist

Ooh, checklist! Really underscores how oddly named many of the cards in this set are.

Card #139: Bruce Zick

These aliens look way more trippy and messed up than the cantina aliens in the movie, and I am here for it. Momaw Nadon is clearly having a great time rocking out to that jizz!

Card #138: Thomas Wm Yeats II

I have no idea what the image on the card is supposed to represent (beyond a shared "space fantasy" vibe), but the green shirt, brown pants & atypical setting make me think of Uli Qel-Droma.

Card #137: Al Williamson (B)

The way Williamson draws the Snowtrooper armor is great; love the way it seems modular and kit-bashed.

Card #136: Al Williamson (A)

I don't know how the editors of this set decided which artists got two cards but Williamson absolutely deserved to be one of them.

Card #135: Russell Walks

It's more pronounced in Return of the Jedi, but I love Chewie's little scraggly mustache so much.

#TradingCardADay #SWG1 #StarWars #NewVisions #TheEmpireStrikesBack #Chewbacca

Card #134: Charles Vess

Vess giving us a more serene training moment than Yoda's usual "heavy calisthenics while wearing me in a backpack" approach.

#TradingCardADay #SWG1 #StarWars #NewVisions #TheEmpireStrikesBack #Yoda #LukeSkywalker

Card #133: John Van Fleet

Good little scene, great sense of movement & place. Busy, but not muddy, and grittier than a lot of the other cards.

#TradingCardADay #SWG1 #StarWars #NewVisions #Xwings

Card #132: Jim Valentino

The Emperor as a grandpa? That would never happen! ๐Ÿ˜

The yellow eyes, teeth and nails are a nice touch, giving the image subtle pop of color.

#TradingCardADay #SWG1 #StarWars #NewVisions #ReturnOfTheJedi

Card #131: Angelo Torres

One of the few cards in this subset to seemingly try and recreate a specific image/scene from one of the movies.
