2016 Star Wars X-Wing Store Championships
Store Championship Prizes
While many players will come to X-Wing Store Championships to compete for the Regional Championship bye awarded to the winner, there are other exclusive prizes up for grabs. Each kit contains enough prizes for the top 32 players.
- Champion: The winner receives a Store Championship plaque and a card granting one first-round bye at a Regional Championship of the player’s choice.
- Top Four: The top four players each receive one challenge coin (plus one for the judge/TO).
- Top Eight: The top eight players each receive one acrylic range ruler (plus one for the judge/TO).
- Top Thirty-Two: The top thirty-two players each receive one C-3PO alternate art card (plus one for the judge/TO). (not pictured)
Here is a closer look at the new kit, note the new C-3PO upgrade card. Those normally sell for big bucks on the secondary market, as they only come in the Tantive IV expansion!
Lock your S-Foils in attack positions and get ready to battle to be the best in YOUR store, and score some cool swag to boot this winter!
