Star Wars Unlimited: Soft Crate - Darth Vader

Single subject, single mood. This crate skips the paired-character format the range usually uses and hands the whole box to Darth Vader, which makes it the cleanest-looking of the character designs.

It takes one complete 60-card deck, double sleeves and all. Nothing is included beyond the crate and its token box.

The mechanism, briefly: the flap uses Cobra Neck geometry, so it swings open past 180 degrees and then holds position rather than falling back over your cards. The lid locks itself. The token box inside clicks shut, so it can be lifted out during a game without shedding counters, and the internal separator stops the deck slumping into the space it leaves behind.

• Full-colour print, officially licensed
• Write-on strip for labelling
• Suits Star Wars: Unlimited and most other 60-card sleeved formats

A practical view: Soft Crates are bought one per deck rather than one for life, and the pricing reflects that. The construction is still Gamegenic's, so you are not trading away durability at the lower cost, only the rigid shell of the more expensive lines.

If you play the dark side and want a box that reads instantly from across a table, this is it.
