“At Topps, we have a relentless focus on enhancing the fan experience, and this new expansion and extension will help us continue to work with Disney Consumer Products to bring the best innovation in the hobby to collectors,” said David Leiner, President of Trading Cards at Fanatics Collectibles. Following up on their long-term collaboration, Leiner noted that Topps has made Star Wars cards since 1977, the most recent being the Star Wars Chrome by Topps release last month.
