First it was a book, then a video game, then several. It was also a comic book series, and a 'behind-the-scenes' book. Eventually, the toys for Shadows of the Empire (SOTE) became notorious peg-warmers. It was also however, a card set, and a very well done card set at that. The SOTE cards were all done as artwork, not by the comic book artists, but by Greg and Tim Hildebrandt. Their artwork makes these cards a beautiful addition to any Star Wars card collection.

I have provided a checklist for these cards below and will be adding scans as soon as I am able. Promo information was provided by David Pipgras.

This set includes an unusual numbering scheme, which included the Chase Cards as part of the general numbering for the set. The cards are numbered 1 - 100, but cards 73-82 are actually the Chase Cards for the set, and cards 89 - 100 are part of two sub-sets for Lucas Arts and Dark Horse. Another complicating factor in collecting this set was the unfortunately poor quality of box collation, leaving a number of non-chase cards quite difficult to come by.
