Soul-on-FireBattlestar Galactica Season 4 (Rittenhouse Archives 2009)
Opened 2 more boxes.
Box # 1986 was a dissapointment, since I got the same 2 autos (Clyne / Savasta), FF1, Gallery 9 and Razor 4 as in my previous box.
Otherwise I had
1 cpl base set
Razor 1 + 3
FF 4
Costume C51 (Tory) + DC8 (Phelan)
The other box # 4987 was better:
1 cpl base set
Razor 6, 7, 9 (6+9 double)
FF 2+4 (4 double)
Gallery 7
autographs Kate Vernon (looks not like a signature but if she tried to check if her pen works) and Colin Lawrence
Costumer C41 (Adama) + DC15 (Doral)
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand my first ever Shelter card S10

If someone is willing to trade my doubles for something I don't have, I'll post it again in the trade section.

Stephen123If there are 6000 boxes, with 24 packs in each box and there are 1070 relic card in total then the odds of getting a relic card are 135:1 rounded up to a whole number.

That comes out to 2 relic cards in every case.

Chris WrennThat is pretty much what I got out of my 4 cases. I had one case with 1 relic but four auto costumes, and the rest had 2 relics.
June 28, 2009, 11:23 AM
Soul-on-FireBut the sticker on the boxes state that there are 5500 boxes...

June 28, 2009, 07:49 PM
Stephen123In that case the odds are better at 123:1 for finding a relic card in a pack. In a case it works out at 2.33:1.

Some cards will be held back in case of damaged ones being found in packs, and some put in the archives boxes?

NonsporttradingOpened up two boxes yesterday. I haven't got the time for a full breakdown, as I'm leaving for Florida in about one hour, but I'dd like to make not that my first pack of the first box contained the Michael Hogan very limited auto

.
Did any of you guys also notice that all the auto/relic cards where in the top 4 packs of the box?
July 02, 2009, 07:58 AM
Electrawoman Cards f/k/a janeI had one box like that, but my other box was completely different. They were well 'mixed' within the rest of the packs.

DanoElManoHello All,
I decided to make my first post a box breakdown of my first ever Rittenhouse box. My box (5098/5500) finally arrived in the mail today.
Here goes :
A complete base set and extras.
Razor R3, R4, R6
Final Five FF3, FF5
Gallery G1
Costume C49, DC7
Autos Rick Worthy, Colby Johannson
Nothing too special but with high shipping costs (especially base sets) the box turned out OK.

On to the box:
Box Number: 2859
Razor: R1,R5,R8

Auto: Colin Lawrence as Hamish McCall

Well, I feel lucky, because I got the following out of one box:
Simon Auto Costume Card
Jamie Bamber Auto Card
Leela Savasta Auto Card
Cavil Double Costume Card
Doral Single Costume Card
I'm sure that will take care of my lucky streak for about 5 years.....
