Trapcode Particular is your friend on this one.
Set up each galaxy as a different Particular layer.
Your assets can be single frames in a preComp then in Particular choose "random still frame" in the layer options.
This will make each particle a random frame from the preComp. Very easy to switch out.
This would be where I would start.
