2003 Rittenhouse Farscape Season 4 trading cards wrap up the episodic recaps of the television series. Some elements carry on from past sets while other inserts branch out into new territory. Still, there’s a sense of familiarity for those dedicated to the line.
The base set picks up from where Season 3 left off. Rittenhouse’s approach was to continue the numbering throughout their seasonal sets. The result is something that may not stand quite so well on its own, but works nicely when everything is put together.
Like past base sets, there’s 72 cards here. Each episode is on three cards. There’s also three cast montage cards at the front and a trio of checklists at the end.
Autographs land two per box. The 13 cards are primarily guest stars.
Costume cards return at a rate of one per box. Five are available in packs while a sixth was exclusive to the set’s binder.
Nine ArtiFEX inserts feature artwork drawn by Virginia Hey who played Pa’u Zotoh Zhaan on the show. The basic versions are some of the easiest inserts in the product at 1:10 packs. She also autographed copies of the card she drew. These land approximately 1:12 boxes.
Eight Gallery cards (1:40 packs) have film slides embedded in them. These showcase Farscape‘s lead characters.
Quotable Farscape and Behind the Scenes with David Kemper are both long-running inserts from previous releases that carry on here.
2003 Rittenhouse Farscape Season 4 had a print run of 6,000 boxes.
