Trading cards all packed! Now I’m going to wrap all of the dog tags in an extra layer of origami paper so they don’t scratch the books.

The merch is all here (except for the extra Hux dog tags)! All the trading cards have been cut, and the “point cards” and bookmarks have all been hand trimmed. That was A LOT but it’s all done now!
Tomorrow I will be packing the trading cards into baggies and starting to box things up for mailing!

Additionally, shipping during the holiday season will add
