Disney Emoji Blitz: Heroes of Hope Card Event - 1st Play Through Diamond Box Result

 

As I was missing quite a few from this Diamond Box, not surprising I got a new emoji (Sabine Wren) from the Diamond Box on the first play through. I'm not into Star Wars, so probably won't try to get through a second time. Mainly just going for the tokens and there aren't any more to get after the first map of the 2nd play through.
