FV1 = 0
FV2 = 9
FV3 = 0
FV4 = 6
FV5 = 11
FV6 = 10

What the #@%& is up with that? Is there a massave shortage of #1 and #3 ?? Or has someone else, somewhere else, sitting on dozens of them?? I'd love to know what other people's VINA count are.....


Well, I got 2 from loose packs
FV3 and FV5. Maybe the FV1 and FV3 should be listed as Very Limited Wink

I got a pack in the mail today with a random autograph card to replace my missing card, and it was A110, Kathryn Hays as Gem Thumb Up

So, my one box basically yielded two limited autographs of Joan Collins and Kathryn Hays Dance

Congrats on getting two limited autos out of one box purchase! I hope to have your luck when opening my next Rittenhouse box (though it would be nice to get the two autos in the same box, Wink)

I've been reluctant to post this as I didn't want to seem gloaty or anything, but I annoucned it in my newsletter, so now that the cat it outta the bag....

I got it in the first case I opened. Made the other 10 or so really dull, I might say.
CPR and O2 was required as was a shot or two to calm my nerves.....
on some level it seems right, I've fought the good Trek fight for a long time. BUt, I'm not the greedy sort. I'd love everyone to have one.
Card is 22 of 25 and no, it's not for sale.

WOW! Congrats on your great pull! I think I would have stopped opening right there! Smile

Now a question to everyone else out there: What is the deal with card 58? I see that there is apparently an error and a corrected version? Can someone please fill me in or direct me to thread about this?

There was an error where two cards were printed with 58 on the back. The correct 58 is "Searching for the Horta."

Okay, so I couldn't resist another shot at the ellusive Roddenberry Card...... I know there's still 1 out ther with my name on it !!!

Here's the breakdown of my second case :-)


3x - Emily Banks as Yeoman Tonia Barrows
2x - Paul Comi as Lt. Andrew Stiles
2x - Peter Duryea as Navigator Jose Tyler
2x - Carl Held as Lindstrom
2x - Lawrence Montaigne as Decius

1x - Brian Tochi as Boy
1x - Sheldon Collins as Tough Kid
1x - Dick Durock as Elasian Guard
1x - Garrison True as Crewman
1x - Laurel Goodwin as Yeoman Colt
1x - Rhodes Reason as Flavius Maximus
1x - Victor Lundin as Klingon Lieutenant
1x - Malachi Throne as Voice of The Keeper

1x - Kathryn Hays as Gem (Limited)
1x - Bobby Clark as The Gorn (Limited)
1x - George Takei as Mirror Universe Sulu (Limited)

1x - Joan Collins as Edith Keeler (Limited)
1x - Eugene Roddenberry Jr. (In the same box as the Joan Collins)!!!

0 - David Soul as Makora
0 - Bruce Hyde as Lt. Riley
0 - Kate Woodville as Natira
0 - Mary Rice as Young T'Pring
0 - Richard Compton as Washburn
0 - Marianne Hill as Dr. Helen Noel
0 - Beverly Washburn as Lt. Galway
0 - Jason Wingreen as Dr. Linke
0 - Ned Romero as Krell

0 - France Nuyen as Elaan (Very Limited) -- Still need one !!
0 - Majel Barrett as Number One (Very Limited) -- Still need one !!
0 - Robert Walker, Jr. as Charlie Evans (Very Limited) -- Still need one !!
0 - Leonard Nimoy as Mirror Universe Spock (Very Limited)
0 - John Crawford as Commissioner Ferris (Limited)


3x Delta Patch Cards

#1 - Kirk
#5 - Sulu
#6 - Chekov


As for the chase cards. All were as expected. And I even got a healthy dose Vina 1 and 3 !!!

All in all not bad. (again). 3 Patch cards are better then two. And the Roddenberry/Collins in the same box was a definate bonus. (I should have stopped there!!) But again, I was hoping for a Very Limited. Especially Majel Barrett. Actually, I would have been happy with any VL in this case, but like I said, I'm not complainin' :-)

From what I've seen so far, you've received the nicest case. :-)
