Looks like they got everyone to sign cards from season 1.
Very nice!
I'll be all over this one.

No Alison Pill or Michelle Hurd. Got most of them though. Oddly, I am not interested in Spiner, Ryan, Siritis, or Frakes. Probably not even Picard. I have autos of those from other sets. I would just want a couple of the new actors. I am curious how the pricing of these will shake out. Isa might be pretty pricey, but I can't see Treadway, Cabrerra, or Evagora being too bad to pick up unless they make them super limited.

Is there a confirmed Season 2? If so, season 2 may have bordered copies of the main stars. I usually prefer bordered over full bleed.

Yes, I think Season 2 was actually confirmed shortly before the series premiere.

Rittenhouse has the same information, plus details on incentives, at its website:

I think the vertical full bleed autographs look nice. Not as big a fan of the horizontal Patrick Stewart, but maybe he said he'd only sign if they gave him more room.

Will be interesting what the 3-4 Rittenhouse case breakers agree to set pricing at. I'll assume Picard is higher then all of his Trek autos picturing his iconic role.

Hopefully there will be a group break for this here, I'd be in for a spot or two.

Just waiting for the pre-sale to show up.

I just received the Star Trek: Picard Season One P1 promo card from Rittenhouse Archives. I've never sent out a SASE before for a free promo card but it was quick and easy.

I can't decide if I want to buy a case or not. This is the first Star Trek trading card set to come out since I got back into trading cards (I don't watch Discovery) and I really want to build my own mini-master set. Blowout has cases listed at $924.95 and I'm sure I could buy a mini-master set for much less than that but it wouldn't be as much fun. I'm not a huge auto collector so I could sell the autos/sketches and recoup some of the money.

Would a single case be enough to guarantee a mini-master set? Base cards plus all inserts? Can anyone who has busted a case of any previous Rittenhouse Star Trek sets chime in? Thanks.

You will most likely not be able to put together a mini-master set with one case. Most recent releases at a minimum have a larger insert set that is something like 1:12 where you can almost complete with one case but you are missing some, as well as a smaller insert set that runs something like 1:96 or 1:144.

If you go back 5 years, most releases gave you a complete set of inserts in one case, but for better or worse that has changed.

Thanks for the info. That helps me make up my mind not to buy a case. I’ll pick up a mini-master later on.

Full autograph checklist has been released. https://www.scifihobby.com/products/checklist.cfm?SetID=372

A lot more autographs than I was expecting. 68 pack inserted autograph cards, 77 when you include archive/incentive. No odds on sketches - hoping for one every case but probably every other.

My gut says value for case breaks will not be great, but we will see.
