The 2009 Rittenhouse Conan the Barbarian Movies Autograph Expansion set came packaged together. It has the signs of being parts of a planned full release that never materialized.
Despite its small size, it has some solid cards when it comes to the Conan movies. Among the five autographs included in each set is James Earl Jones who played Thulsa Doom. While he’s best known as the voice of Darth Vader (and, “This is CNN.”), his card here is more affordable than most of his others as Conan doesn’t have quite the same brand power as Star Wars when it comes to trading cards.
Other autographs include Sarah Douglas (Queen Taramis), Mako (Akiro), Ben Davidson (Rexor) and Casandra Gava (The Witch).
In addition to the five autographs, each 2009 Rittenhouse Conan the Barbarian Movies Autograph Expansion set has three character cards. All feature the titular character played by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Speaking of Schwarzenegger, those order ten sets received a Cut Signature card of the Hollywood icon. Limited to 25 copies, the signatures come from his Batman and Robin Widevision Autograph.
2009 Conan Autograph Expansion had a print run of 333 sets.
