5Han Solo, Worth the Risk (Showcase)
Market Price: $349.00

3Hondo Ohnaka, That’s Good Business (Showcase)
Market Price: $499.00

1Bossk, Hunting His Prey (Showcase)
Market Price: $500.00
The most expensive card in Star Wars: Unlimited: Shadows of the Galaxy is Bossk, Hunting His Prey. This Leader card not only comes as a pristine Showcase rarity but makes for an excellent leader as well.
