There's a special P4 promo card for the facebook people. Check out Rittenhouse Archives on facebook for details.

Saw a note on the Rittenhouse forums that said they're still working on getting Seth McFarlane to sign for this.

RA said on its website that the Seth McFarlane auto is confirmed, that he's agreed to sign

RA hasn't updated The Orville ad page for a McFarlane auto as yet. Steve has previously said that not everyone will be in the first series. Still enough time, but this one could be close.

Release date moved to April 17.

Would make a guess that it's due to waiting on the McFarlane auto, that's still not pictured.

It definitely is.

Updated with the Seth McFarlane card. And the card design is now different too.

I liked it before, but this is even nicer. I guess they're already going for multiple card designs again.

Interesting how much Adrianne Palicki's signature has shortened since Smallville. Reminds me of how my nice legible signature when I started work became a scribble as the years passed .

Penny Johnson Jerald's has as well. Or, Penny John Jold, as she apparently is now.

Really great design. I've never seen this show but might chase a MacFarlane autograph.

Hands off! There'll be few enough of them around as it is

Do we have any idea how many are being made? If it is anything like Family Guy I'm immediately priced out. . .

Honestly, I expect no more than 100 from the top names in any Rittenhouse set, these days. 50 if it's Cryptozoic.

Full autograph checklist:

Seth McFarlane
Rob Lowe
Peter Macon
Mark Jackson
Penny Johnson Jerald
Scott Grimes
Adrianne Palicki
Kelly Hu
Gavin Lee
Larry Joe Campbell
Patrick Cox
JD Cullum
Christine Corpuz
Sean Cook
Brett Rickaby
Jeremy Guskin
Rena Owen
Antonio D. Charity
James Morrison
Robert Knepper
Max Burkholder
Micheala McManus
Dylan Kenin
James Horan
Makabe Ganey
Catherine Shu
Barry Livingston
Steven Culp
Brian Thompson
J. Paul Boehmer
Ralph Garman
Philip Anthony-Rodriguez
Paul Vogt
Erica Tazel
Lenny Von Dohlen
Tim Mikulecky
Seth Austin
Robert Picardo
Giorgia Whigham

First 8 are full bleed. The rest are bordered.

There's also a dual of Philip Anthony-Rodriguez and Erica Tazel in the boxes.

The other duals (Rob Lowe/Adrianne Palicki and Robert Picardo/Molly Hagen) are case incentives.

A bordered Rob Lowe is an archive box exclusive.

As expected, less than 100 each of Rob Lowe and Seth McFarlane in the boxes.

Can't remember the last time the "Scarce" bracket was used...

RA has been using it on bigger name autos and the duals for awhile. Twin Peaks and X-Files are probably the most recent. I'm sure next GoT will have several listed.

They all used to just fall in the Extremely Limited category, as there was no minimum number given, just XXX and less. Now they feel the need to tell us that we really, really, really shouldn't expect to find them.

I've seen it in the key for ages... it's never been used on a set I care about, but to be fair, Twin Peaks and X-Files didn't fall in that category

It definitely translates to "unbuyable" to me.

"Scarce" is in the "please buy 18 cases and you stand a good chance" bracket. Which to ordinary collectors is a.k.a. "unbuyable".
I like the show, but with other shows' sets released this year I'm having to pass on this one. If I can pick up a Scott Grimes cheaply, I might, but nothing else.
As always, I'll still be interested in what people find in their boxes/cases etc and how the cards look.
