The other thing to note is this. Out of 18 boxes (1.5 cases) I got 36 VINA cards. The breakdown is this ->

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

Box #8418/9000:

-Vaces of Vina: FV4, FV6
-Portraits: PT18 (Edith Keeler)
-Expansion: #84
-Captain Pike: CP3, CP5, CP9
-Quotable: #111, 112, 119, 121
-Autos: A129 Emily Banks (Tonia Barrows), A137 Rhodes Reason (Flavius Maximus)

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

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

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, )

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.

Let me be the first to say: WOW!!!!!
Congratulations to you!

Congrats on pulling a Star Trek fans Holy Grail!

Blair

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

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 :-)

2x - Peter Duryea as Navigator Jose Tyler
2x - Carl Held as Lindstrom
2x - Lawrence Montaigne as Decius

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' :-)

Overall, I'm very happy with the case. My only complaint is with the numbering on the Pike Cards. Had to pull out the magnifying glass to figure out cards 6, 8 and 9.

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