The release date is July 27, 2022. Here are some of the details:



Notice that Patrick Stewart, Michael Dorn, LeVar Burton, and Wil Wheaton are not on the list of signers. Also, there are two Star Trek: Lower Decks chase sets.

The four autos per box including two inscription autos compares to two autos/one inscription per box for The Original Series Archives and Inscriptions set.

Boxes are $169.99 and cases are $1,999.99 direct from Rittenhouse. Blowout has boxes for $129.95 (currently on sale for $123.45) and cases for $1,499.95 (currently on sale for $1,424.95):

I was excited for this set but the price is tough to swallow. Four autos per box seems great but you know most of them are going to be minor guest stars. And does anyone know if you can get the incentives by buying the required number of cases from a retailer like Blowout? Or do you have to go directly to Rittenhouse or a distributor?
There are a lot of friendly dealers on this site who won’t be selling boxes for $169, but quite a bit lower. Rittenhouse prices their boxes high so they don’t undercut their sellers. Probably more like $125-$140. Still, it's a lot, and it is likely that the other two autographs will be stuff from their vault(Guest stars of the week), but they may surprise us. I love the idea of inscriptions for the TNG cast. It is a shame there’s no Stewart, but it’s understandable. And as far as the incentives are concerned, I’m sure you can find plenty of them for sale by themselves on ebay.
