Ultimately this proved to be untrue, but it made this card, given to the winners of the World Championship Series in 2006, gain quite a name for itself.

See the list of these kinds of posts.Game Devs. I know a lot of the guys on the first page of the collection leaderboard have spent around $50k. It's definitely possible to spend more, as many of these guys started near the beginning, so you could easily spend $70k+ if you are a newer player.It's also possible to spend inefficiently: Remember the guy on TI who spend $30k+ and failed to max out the MF or the other guy who spent thousands when Rex was rare in the Chromiums and then he was released in Aurodiums a week or two later.Plus with mods you can spend pretty much as much as you want. If you wanted all 25+ speed secondaries you could probably spend hundreds of thousands on them.
The difference is this game is pulling in multiple millions of dollars each month. I heard it’s the highest revenue generator for all of EA for 2017. It’s not going anywhere any time soon.But yeah for your point, all mobile games come with a shelf life and you are only buying pixels on the screen so one day they might pull the plug and you lose everything. But, it’s the same with your real CCG, you could lose the cards or your house could catch fire. The important thing is to make sure you are enjoying things you spend your money on and aren’t spending so much it negatively affects your life. I mean I dont think those are really the same things;having house catching on fire. Having a scumbag roommate steal your entire magic the gathering collection youve been working on for 14 years and selling it for heroin money and disappearing off the face of the planet just to find out months later hes living in a shithole with a gross junkie girl he got pregnant.or having the developers of the game come to your house and say 'hey, so we are all done supporting this game.
We wont make any new cards in the future and we are actually going to need you to hand your collection over to us because we cant have people playing this game or keeping their collection now that we dont support it.'

Star Wars trading card usually refers to a non-sport card themed after a Star Wars movie or television show. However a common colloquial reference to trading card can also include reference to stickers, wrappers, or caps (pog) often produced along the same theme. Usually produced as either promotional or collectible memorabilia relating to Star Wars, the cards can depict anything from screen still imagery to original art. In addition, there have been various companies that have issued promotional Star Wars trading cards that include reference to or information about that corresponding company.
An avid collecting and trading community of these cards and sets exists worldwide. New cards released commercially are available through most major retailers and wholesalers, however some cards are specially issued as exclusive and only available though a specific source. A thriving secondary market also exists on eBay in various categories. Star Wars trading cards are different from the various Star Wars collectible card game cards.
History[edit]
Star Wars trading cards were first produced and released by Topps in 1977 to coincide with the first Star Wars movie, and they have remained the official producer of Star Wars trading cards in the United States ever since.[1][2] Various manufacturers handle the property around the rest of the world.
In 1977, a photograph appeared on a Topps Star Wars trading card in which C-3PO appeared to have a prominent phallus. In 2007, the official Star Wars website hypothesized that this was caused by a part of the suit that had fallen into place just as the photograph was taken. However, in 2019 Daniels clarified that the costume had become compromised during C-3PO's oil bath in the film; the warm liquid had caused the costume to separate, leading to 'an over-exposure of plastic in that region'.[3]
In 2015, Topps created the Star Wars Card Trader app for iPhone, iPad and Android. This app allows users to open packs, collect digital cards, and trade them with other users right in the app. Limbo walkthrough.
