David RRittenhouse Promo Variants
If you look on ebay and type in Rittenhouse promo variant, you can see the Hercules, Xena, and the Outer Limits with the eye.

David RAlso, if you search for Outer Limits Premiere on ebay, you can see those 2 promos. Same fronts, different backs.

cardaddictFronts are all the same:

cardaddictThanks! I bought that Xena variant, I didn't have that! And I quit collecting, look what you made me do!
There is also the same front with a GUMMIE 2001 instead of P1 on the back, which I do have.

cardaddictXENA front & back
August 03, 2020, 03:17 PM
David RThe scans of the Xena promos you posted do not show the "rare" variant.
The P1 in the scan is the common one.
The "rare" variant is the one which has the same front as the BP1 and the Gummie, but a P1 back.

cardaddictYeah, I know, I took the picture anyway. I did buy the variant though.

David RCan you lift the photos of the 2 Outer Limit Premiere promos on ebay, to show those backs ?
Maybe you can post the photo of the Outer Limits "eye" promo, as well.

David RAlso, I have a scan of the Stargate 7 P2 variant
If you email me, I can forward it to you and maybe you can post here. I don't know how

Outer Limits Variant back
August 03, 2020, 04:40 PM
AWRFor the Outer Limits - Is this for the Premier or for Sex, Cyborgs and Science Fiction.
My P1 for Sex, Cyborgs and Science Fiction is different (has red Sex, Cyborgs and Science Fiction written under the title, has different pictures, and says 3 Autographs per box)
My P2 looks the same as the picture of the P1
So is there variants for P1 of both Premier and Sex, Cyborgs and Science Fiction
August 03, 2020, 05:00 PM
David RAWR is correct, you mistakenly posted the pic of the back of the 2003 P1 promo
The ones with the variant backs are for the 2001 set. I emailed you the links to the ebay auctions. The fronts of the 2001 promos are the same.
The 2003 P1 promos have different fronts from each other.
August 03, 2020, 05:18 PM
cardaddictWOW! I am really mixed up!
Let's start over with the Stargate Season 7 variant.
August 03, 2020, 05:27 PM
cardaddictHere are the OUTER LIMITS PREMIERE EDITION cards (copied from E-Bay), same fronts, two different backs:
August 03, 2020, 05:36 PM
David RThanks, Steve. Can you please post a scan of the front of the 2003 Outer Limits variant ?
August 03, 2020, 05:37 PM
cardaddictThis is the OUTER LIMITS SEX CYBORGS AND SCIENCE FICTION unreleased promo card (copied from E-Bay):
This one is confusing because the released P2 card has the same back as the unreleased card, while the released P1 and P3 cards state 3 autos per box.
My head is spinning!
August 03, 2020, 05:52 PM
David RThanks, Steve.
On the Farscape Season 2 promo (which we don't have a picture of to post), the variant has the same front as the ultra common promo that you can see all over ebay, the guy in the mask.
From what I recall, the back of the variant says that there is 1 autograph card per box, and the regular one says 2 autos.

catskilleagleYeah, Steve, you seem to be buying almost as much after you quit collecting cards as you did when you were really into it.

cardaddictNo, not really.
I used to buy cases back when I could afford them.
I remember sitting at my desk sorting the base cards into sets, and then storing them away.
And waiting for that rare card from the case which didn't always come, another reason I quit.

AWRRecently picked up both variants of Hercules and Outer Limits Premier Edition Cards
Looking in Todd Jordan's 2008 Promo Card Encyclopedia, the variants are listed as rare and hard to find (and carried a hefty price).
Wonder what happened since 2008 as the variants are now easy to find (and a lot cheaper then the price listed)
