2013 Topps Star Wars Illustrated: A New Hope is a trading card set released by Topps on November 6, 2013.[1] The 100-card set depicts scenes not seen in the movie, such as those heard in the original Star Wars radio drama.[2]

The card set has three base card parallels: Black parallels, Bronze parallels, and Gold parallels, which amount to 1:12 packs, 1:24 packs, and #/10. The Gold parallels are strictly for hobby usage only.[2] Besides the parallels, there are also several different sets within each pack, including:

  • One Year Earlier (1:2 Packs), detailing events that appeared a year prior to the events of A New Hope (1 BBY). Also included a 18-card checklist;[2]
  • Movie Poster Artist Reinterpretations (1:3), a set of nine cards each depicting an artist's interpretation of the A New Hope movie poster;[2]
  • Etched Foil Radio Drama Puzzle (1:8), six foil cards that recreate a scene from the radio drama;[2]
  • The Mission: Destroy the Death Star (1:12), a set of twelve cards, plus a checklist, detailing the specific steps to the Battle of Yavin. Also included a bonus Death Star card issued to any player who registers all twelve cards.[2] These cards also had codes on the back that could be redeemed online to listen to a clip from the radio drama that corresponded with that particular card. When collectors entered the twelve codes on "Topps Star Wars" Facebook page, they were rewarded with an exclusive card depicting an exploding Death Star.[1]

In addition, the main box also includes additional features, such as a panorama sketch card, 35mm film cells taken from a print of the original film, called "Film Cell Relics," printing plates for a base card, and autographed cards from various voice actors who contributed to the radio drama.[2]
