Empire Strikes Back 45-Back Proof Card Series
Most collectors will attempt to put together a set of proof cards relating to a specific character. Others will attempt an offerless series. Then others still will attempt to put together a set of movie characters on movie cardbacks. Well, Sandy has really made his proof card collecting specialized. He is attempting to put together a series of only ESB characters on Display Arena Offer 45 back cards. Putting together a proof card series is hard enough, looking for a specific character is even harder, but looking for a specific character on a specific cardback is downright frustrating. So far he’s managed to add 10 characters to this series.

Top: AT-AT Driver, White Bespin Guard, Bossk, RL C-3PO, FX-7
Bottom: Han Solo Bespin, IG-88, Imperial Commander, Lobot, and Luke Skywalker Bespin

Here is a nice shot of the back of the card.

Sandy has also managed to procure 2 carded sample figures on 45 back sample cards. They are 4LOM and Zuckuss.
