2003 Rittenhouse Quotable Xena: Warrior Princess trading cards may very well have one of the strongest checklists out of any of the show’s many sets. The base set comes with a different sort of look, the inserts are varied and the list of autograph signers has many of the top stars.
At 135 cards plus three checklists, the base set is a big one. All are done with etched foil, or EtchaFEX as Rittenhouse put it. As the name of the set suggests, the cards focus on memorable lines from the show.
All base cards have a basic foil parallel. These are inserted one per pack.
2003 Rittenhouse Quotable Xena: Warrior Princess Autographs and Inserts
Each 2003 Rittenhouse Quotable Xena: Warrior Princess box has two autographs. These come in a few different styles. The main autograph line continues with 17 new cards. Bruce Campbell is the top name here.
Five Dual Autographs pair up various characters and actors, including Lucy Lawless and Ted Raimi.
Finally, there are seven Autographed Costume cards (Renee O’Connor is an incentive card). Lawless and Campbell are also featured here.
Xena In Motion uses lenticular technology to capture motion from the show. Rittenhouse did these sorts of cards for virtually all of their licenses during this period. A separate Motion card was used as a case topper bonus.
Other inserts include Words from the Bard, Eternal Friends and the die-cut Forged in the Heat of Battle.
The 2003 Rittenhouse Quotable Xena: Warrior Princess binder comes with an exclusive costume card.
