What's Dropping
Topps is releasing the highly anticipated 2026 Star Wars Chrome Galaxy Hobby Box via EQL raffle. Each box contains 4 Chrome parallels, offering collectors a chance at rare and premium cards. The retail price is set at $259.99 per hobby box, with sealed cases (12 boxes) available for $2999.99.
When & Where
The raffle opens on August 12, 2026, at 1:00 PM ET on Topps' EQL platform. Entries are open for one hour, and winners are notified shortly after. A secondary raffle was also available via the Fanatics App, which closed earlier in the morning.
The Play
This release presents a solid flip opportunity, with our team estimating a resale value of around $400 per box. While Star Wars products can be harder to move than sports cards, the current market is showing strong demand for this Chrome Galaxy set. Pre-order performance exceeded expectations, and recent trends suggest the market is heating up.
Resale Outlook
Given the limited stock typically allocated for EQL releases, securing a win will be competitive. Online sales (eBay, etc.) are holding steady at the $400 mark, and local marketplace buyers may also be an option. If you land a sealed case, the bulk discount could improve margins further. Act fast—this one won’t last long.
