Does anyone have a good picture of tournament/storechampionship card boxes? Or has someone seen them opened?
I would really like to know what kind of storing system these boxes have for cards and tokens. FFG has announced them to be: "Card box – one Imperial and one Rebel Alliance – for storing ship cards, upgrade cards, and tokens".
Best picture I have seen is this one:
im not really seeing he appeal of cardboard storage boxes for prizes - am i missing something?
Yeah.. agreed Bomber.. seems lame to me.. besides, I don't think they will fit where I store my cards.. lol.. highly impractical .. for myself.. I'd trade it for pilot cards.. lol

It's the fact that it's a SW themed box, and an official one no less. You can get deck boxes with all sorts of graphics on them to hold your cards, but I have yet to see a SW themed one. Now, if only they'd make deck boxes for the smaller cards...
Edited by WonderWAAAGHi store all my pilot cards in CCG binders, the upgrades too. easy enough to flick through and view stuff before pulling it out.
id be more intersted in limited edition SW card sleeves than cardboard boxes.
Id prefer FFG to do more acrylic tokens and maybe mix'n'match them in the same game night kit especially the high use stuff luke acrylic shield tokens and range rulers.
what about an alt art unique upgrade card like R2D2?
Alt art cards are cool, but I disaprove of ebay shenanigans. As for storing the cards, I have a couple slots in my storage box (plano) that fit them nicely, andni use the ziploc bags from the expansions to seperate the different upgrade types..

I'm so used to playing Magic that I refuse to let my X-Wing cards touch the table unsleeved, so putting them in binders would be more of a hassle than a simple deck box. Binders are more of a long-term storage solution anyways. Assuming the quality of these SW boxes isn't complete garbage, I'll be trying to bribe my LGS into buying me a kit of my own.

I was thinking of doing the same

FFG does have a variety of Star Wars sleeves. It wouldn't be difficult for them to do a limited edition run as tournament prizes.

Exactly my point. My LGS can get me 2014 S1 TK too, but it has to be preordered before 1.17.14. That is why I wanted to see if SW boxes are worth the bucks. Being official storage boxes (yep it is the SW-theme I like in them) and ment to be given as a prize for a winner and runner-up I dare to assume boxes aren't that crappy.
