It begs the question: what about other CCG’s that have faded into history? Well, it turns out, there are some pretty compelling collectibles out there. My discovery of the out-of-print Star Wars: CCG’s rising value is inspiring. The key takeaway here: if you run across old Star Wars: CCG cards in a collection-or if you have some buried in a garage at home-I highly encourage you to dig them out. Therefore, despite being much older, the print runs on some earlier sets are less valuable (but still worth selling). I believe this is because the game’s fading popularity meant shorter print runs as the game matured. In counterintuitive fashion, it seems the older sets are less valuable than the newer ones. The Endor booster box was an auction with seven bidders, indicating this phenomenon goes beyond just a single individual completing a collection. Apparently, some of the last officially released Star Wars: CCG sets can sell for a hefty sum! With that aside, I ran a quick search on eBay and sorted by ending price. This isn’t about speculation, it’s about awareness and education. I just mentioned above that I am selling some of my Star Wars: CCG cards. I hope my reader’s would know better than to jump head first into purchasing cards they know nothing about. The Finance Sideīefore I go further, I want to emphasize that this article is not designed to spur a random buyout of Star Wars: CCG cards. Apparently this card game is still popular and seeing a surge in interest. Yes, a Star Wars: CCG documentary is going to happen. When I first saw the video I thought, “No way this takes off.” Then I checked the donation progress… Then there’s the GoFundMe campaign video where Brandon Baity asks for $10,000 of support to create a Star Wars: CCG documentary! Yes, a documentary. Check out the photo below, from the 2020 (that’s right, this year!) championship. The site itself has a classic feel to it, but don’t be fooled: this site is actively maintained. The second hit was the Star Wars Customizable Card Game Players Committee website. I ran a quick Google search for “Star Wars CCG”-the first hit was its Wikipedia page. What?! The game is still maintained with modern rules and modern cards (Mandalorian cards, even!). Instead, it was these replies that opened my eyes to a live-and-well subculture: The fact I was able to sell less than a third of my boosters for $47 was baffling.īut that sale alone didn’t inspire this week’s article. The box didn’t contain rules, I didn’t find a friend interested in learning with me, and so the cards were relegated to my hobby display shelf, where it remained untouched for years. I received these packs as a gift a while ago, with the intent to learn the game. One person messaged me directly and arranged a deal to purchase ten of these booster packs for $47. But a couple replies really surprised me. Numerous followers chimed in sharing their fond memories of the game. I discovered this recently when I shared a picture of some sealed Star Wars: CCG booster packs on Twitter, asking for opinions on their value. Something that surprised me recently is that just because a game is out of print doesn’t mean there are no players of the game.

Note that in the issue depicted above, the latter two weren’t even invented yet! An Eye-Opening Moment

The only CCG’s I hear anything about in 2020 are Magic, Pokémon, and Yu-Gi-Oh. Newcomers to Magic, however, may not have such experiences, namely because nearly all the CCG’s from the late 90’s are now defunct. Players who started around this time almost assuredly at least dabbled in another CCG.

In fact, InQuest Magazine used to rank the top 10 CCG’s by popularity each month: When I started playing Magic back in 1997, there were numerous CCG’s to pick from. Have you ever played a Collectible Card Game (CCG) besides Magic: The Gathering? I wonder how the majority of players today would answer that question-it may break down bimodally, by generation.
