Rittenhouse Archives/Sci-Fi Hobby recently sent me three new Trading Card Boxes to review.
It’s been awhile since I heard from Rittenhouse and I’m anxious to see what each series of Trading Card Sets have to offer.
All three series of Trading Cards Sets come 24 Packs per Box with two Autograph Cards per Box.
As with every Rittenhouse Archives/Sci-Fi Hobby Trading Card Sets the quality of the Cards is first-rate with high-gloss and heavy paper stock and brilliant color photos and art along with clever and highly collectible ’extras’.
Lost In Space Season One
I was a little late on arrival when the new Lost In Space TV series premiered on Netflix. We did not have a Netflix account at the time.
However 20th Century Fox provided me the complete First Season on Blu-ray for review. I binged watched it.
Before watching it I was a little skeptical. A female Dr. Smith, a radically redesigned Robot and Jupiter 2 and a mixed family Robinson? Where would the series lead me?
I need not have worried, the show far outdid my expectations. I can hardly wait for Season Two.
RittenhouseArchives/Sci-Fi Hobby Trading Cards has created a great set of Lost In Space Trading Cards with scenes from the series, Behind-The-Scenes Secrets, Special Effects and much more. Five Cards come per Pack.
Seventy-Two Cards make up the Base Set with six Plot Synopsis Cards for each episode with lots of randomly inserted Bonus Cards in each Box.
I was able to assemble a complete Base Set with Cards left over for almost complete a second Set.
Bonus Cards include:
10 Juan Ortiz Episode Cards (I got 1)
10 Quotable Cards (1 more)
8 Character Cards (1 Again-Judy Robinson)

The Twilight Zone Rod Serling Edition
When I was a kid I loved watching the original Twilight Zone TV series. It scared the snot out of me and yet I watched it every week.
I never really warmed up to the series that followed the original.
Without Rod Serling the new series seemed to fall flat.
Rittenhouse Archives/Sci-Fi Hobby has compiled a wonderful new Trading Card Set of Cards consisting of a Base Set of 158 Cards-one for each original episode featuring Rod Serling's Opening and Closing Monologues.
I made complete Base Set with some extras left over.
Eight Cards come per Pack.

9 Case:

and Bill Mumy (Anthony Fremont) from "It's A Good Life"!
18 Case:
3 sets of 4 Printing Plate Cards used to make either Base Set or Bonus Set Cards.
Twin Peaks Archives
I have to admit I never watched Twin Peaks. I had several friends who swore by it and never missed an episode.
If memory serves me correctly there was another TV show I watched that was on at the same time as Twin Peaks. I never got around to watching the series.
Rittenhouse Archives/Sci-Fi Hobby knows the show and has produced a beautiful series of Trading Cards.
It consists of a 72-card Base Set (I assembled a full Set) that come 5 Cards per Pack and include 2 Autographs per Box. Each Card explores the relationship between characters of the show.
