9 card sealed sets of legends of Star Trek were issued by Rittenhouse approx 2006 .
I have just been reading an article

about how these sets were issued .
They seem to of been issued as 3 card sets at all different dates.
From what I understand these cards were issued as 3 card sets at various dates.
Did Rittenhouse issue these cards at various dates as 3 card sets.
Were these sets as 3 cards ever put up for sale as seperate sets or just held until the 9 cards were available then packed as 9 card numbered sets.
There is a set Uhura wich has 3 different actors in it.
Seems to be an unusual method of issuing over a period of time.
Any explanations
Thanks

They started in 2003. Some were 9 card sets of a particular character, others were 3 x 3 card sets of "minor" characters but issued as a 9 card set.

I'm a legend in my own mind-meld.

Think I have it .
Cards in the packs have no revelence to the issued date or date on the back of the card, of the cards in them .
If so it seems that they were made for that format in mind by Rittenhouse.
My Kirk and Spock packs have the different years 03 and 04

Here is a partial list and release dates from the Rittenhouse Archives web Page

They started as 9-card sets for each character. They then sold some sets as 3 x 3 (3 cards each from 3 characters. They later sold sets of 6 cards for each of these so that every character had nine cards

Also, one card from each character was numbered x/1701, and if you ordered from Rittenhouse, they gave you the same number each time (Mine are 0314/1701)

The list of all 42 characters is also broken down by card number/name on Allender's Site

Totally missed the extra 6 card sets! That has upset me!

Like Hammer i am also upset that I have missed these sets lol
Were there any 6 card sets made and distributed I have not seen any if so were they in pack format or loose cards.

Mine came in cello packs, which I carefully opened and kept, you can see one in the photo. All of mine have the same number, 493 of 1701 (now where did they come up with THAT number?) Sorry about the large photo, I just like taking pictures of my stuff. I'm not even sure if I have a complete set.
