True Blood Legends Series 1 - Rittenhouse Archives
True Blood rittenhouse release doesn't mention any autographs or costume cards :(

They are doing a full release with autos and costumes in late 2012. It takes a while to set up the actors and materials etc. In the meantime, they are doing the one that's been announced that focusses on particular characters, similar to their Legends of Star Trek sets (which is why it is named Legends).
 
Emailed Rittenhouse/Scifihobby regarding True Blood series 1, noticed on their website that they only deliver to USA&Canada, asked them if they would deliver to Australia, i then had a RIVERTING email exchange with them :rolleyes:

Note:You need to start from the bottom and work your way up to read the email exchange...

Hi
Noticed that the True Blood is only available "NOTE: This item is only available to customers in the USA and Canada!"
Will it be available to fans in Australia.

Cheers
 
Strange email response...one only assumes they are really busy?
You should be able to get it from an online store and not from Rittenhouse directly when its released :) ...or our friend Jen will do a case break!
 
I will see if there's enough interest for a group buy for the full release when there's more details such as timing.

May be busy, but may also be sick of being asked and criticised about their US/Canada only stuff. They have posted in many places that this is a licensing issue. Many of the television series owners sell the license for US/Canada separately from licenses in other countries. Rittenhouse are not legally allowed to sell to us, it's not their decision.

However, unless you are intending to purchase directly from Rittenhouse, it makes no difference since the dealers can sell to anyone. I know I have also posted about this on some threads (perhaps Marvel Universe? and others). Maybe we should do a FAQ and include this information in it?

Thanks for the update Dangerskillz
 
And there's another set of the 100th anniversary of Tarzan for the next year in which I'm going to draw some cards.
 
Rittenhouse have updated their intended releases. NCIS now has a date

Marvel: Greatest Heroes - 14 March
Spartacus - 4 Apr
James Bond 50th Anniversary Series 1 - 25 Apr
NCIS Premiere Edition - 23 May
Game of Thrones: Season 1 - 6 Jun

Don't expect any details (eg auto lists) until 2-3 months before release. Rittenhouse only actively advertise a couple of sets at a time. For at least some of these I will organise group buys and will start appropriate threads about 2 months out.
