Every few months we are treated to a new virtual set released by the Star Wars Players Committee. While I couldn’t find a release date for the new set, I would assume it releases late March/early April. Even though I haven’t found a date, there have been plenty of cards spoiled from the new set including my personal favorite – Luuke.
Luuke is the clone of Luke Skywalker that was cloned from the hand that Luke lost while fighting Darth Vader on Cloud City.
The rest of the set is as follows:
