Actor Wayne Pygram who played Governor Tarkin in
Revenge of the Sith has joined ranks with first-time card signers
Hayden Christensen (
Anakin Skywalker), Garrick Hagon (
Biggs Darklighter), Sandi Finlay (
Sly Moore), Maria de Aragon (
Greedo), David Barclay, Bob Keen, John Coppinger, Mike Edmonds, Mike Quinn, and Toby Philpott (
Jabba the Hutt puppeteers) and Richard LeParmentier (
Admiral Motti) for the authentic autograph cards in the new
Star Wars Evolution: Update Edition, due out this summer from Topps.
Ambitious fans wanting to complete their Tarkin collection can do so not only with the Pygram-signed card, but also with the ultra-rare cut signature card from the late Peter Cushing who played the Grand Moff Tarkin in A New Hope. Collectors should note that unlike the Pygram signed cards, there is only one cut signature card from Cushing in the entire Evolution card series, making it the ultimate collectible for fans.
