I wonder why no pictures of the regular set?

Looks impressive. Anybody going to lay down $960 for a case?

Looks nice, but I still would have liked a separate CR set...





But today is the thirteenth...

Do you mean, one set of playing cards, specifically made for Casino Royale? they do have one out there, I received it for Christmas.

I'm also looking forward to this, but how come Daniel Craig didn't sign for this set. Kind of takes the ummppphhhh out of it.

Topps got Routh & Spacey. I'm sure Rittenhouse could have opened their wallets for Craig! frown.gif

Rittenhouse does a far better job with autographs than Topps. The ones you have mentioned were signed on stickers first, then applied to the cards (which is ugly and cheap). The odds of getting one of those was astronomical.

However, Rittenhouse has gotten Lazenby and Roger Moore to sign (twice) and those cards are easier to come by than Topps'. If you check their autograph lineup for all their Bond sets you'll see the list is very impressive. Compare that to Topps's Star Wars sets, for example- which became so lame they had signers from people who were Jabba the Hutt puppet.

Yeah, I'm aware that Topps went to stickers for some of their 06 sets. I'm an avid auto card collector, so I know most of what you're talking about.

I only wish that they got Craig to sign. Would have really been the extra to put this upcoming set OTT.

I do like the relic/prop cards that will be avail. Should be a good set regardless!

It'll be a great set. I'll check around for some specials like the autograph cards from Honor Blackman or John Ryes Davis. I'm also interested to see how looks like the relic cards. Sure a great add to the Ritenhouse collection.
