Star Wars: Unlimited

Star Wars: Unlimited on Sideboard covers all released sets — from Spark of Rebellion onward — including expansion sets, organized play promos, Intro Battle starter sets, and gift box sealed products. SWU’s standout catalog features are its Aspect system (the force-alignment mechanic that defines deck-building) and its distinct card types including Leader and Base cards.

Sets & Catalog

Sideboard covers all published Star Wars: Unlimited sets:

New sets appear in Sideboard’s catalog within 24 hours of TCGPlayer listing them.

Cards & Variants

Each Star Wars: Unlimited card in Sideboard includes:

• Card type — Unit, Event, Upgrade, Leader, or Base
• Aspects — the force alignments a card belongs to: Vigilance, Command, Aggression, Cunning, Heroism, Villainy, or combinations thereof
• Traits — faction/species tags like “Rebel,” “Imperial,” “Clone Trooper,” “Mandalorian,” “Jedi,” “Sith,” and location/world tags
• Arena — Ground or Space (for Units)
• Cost, Power, HP — the core stats; not all card types carry all three
• Rarity — Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary, Special
• Card text — rules and effect text, including Epic Action text for Leader and Base cards

Finishes

SWU currently tracks Normal as the standard finish. Hyperspace and showcase treatments appear as separate catalog entries with distinct TCGPlayer IDs and their own pricing.

Aspects in buylist rules

Aspects work like a multi-value attribute — a card can have one or two aspects. Sideboard treats aspects as a list, so filtering for “Heroism” returns all cards that include Heroism (including dual-aspect Heroism/Villainy cards, if any). Buylist rules can target specific aspects, making it straightforward to build aspect-specific price rules.

Pricing

SWU pricing tracks per condition (Near Mint through Damaged) with no finish split for standard prints. Hyperspace/Showcase alternate versions are separate catalog entries with independent prices.

Prices update every 6 hours for cards in your active inventory, daily for the rest. See How pricing works.

Legendary rarity in SWU behaves similarly to an ultra-rare — these are the high-value chase cards. Special rarity covers showcase treatments. Prices for Legendaries can be volatile near set release; the market typically stabilizes within the first two weeks.

Common Workflows

Browsing by aspect:

• Use the Aspect filter to find all cards that include a specific aspect
• Dual-aspect cards appear under both of their aspects

Trait-based buying:

• Filter by traits like “Rebel” or “Imperial” to target faction-specific cards
• Useful for customers building specific faction decks

Leader and Base management:

• Leaders and Bases are filtered by card type, separate from Unit/Event/Upgrade
• Leaders have distinct pricing from their Hyperspace variants — make sure you’re looking at the right version

Organized play promo tracking:

• Weekly Play Promos, Judge Promos, and similar promo sets are tracked under the Promo product type
• Promos have their own pricing independent of the set equivalents of the same card

Gotchas

Hyperspace cards are separate catalog entries. The standard version of a Hyperspace card is not the same item as its regular-art counterpart. They have different TCGPlayer IDs and different prices. When adding to inventory, confirm you’re adding the right version.

Leaders have two faces but one catalog entry. Leader cards are double-sided, but Sideboard tracks the card as one item — there’s no need to manage front and back separately.

Arena matters for deck legality but not for pricing. Sideboard tracks arena (Ground/Space) for catalog filtering purposes; it doesn’t affect how pricing or buylist rules work.

“Special” rarity is a showcase treatment, not a power-level indicator. Some cards with Special rarity are common cards with a premium treatment. Don’t assume Special = high value across the board.

Promo sets are numerous. SWU has had many organized play promo releases. If you manage promo singles, use the Promo product type filter to navigate them without wading through expansion sets.
