I think they mostly look fine. IMO they are just as good as the 25th Anniversary cards were.
I still don't like the face on the Jinx card because it kind of has the newer, more realistic look to it that I just don't think fits very well with this style of card. I'm not a big fan of Iron Klaw either because that is obviously Destro's card art. I think they would have been better off going with an image that isn't quite so ingrained in the fan's eyes. As far as tiny nit-picking problems go, I wish they mirrored the Quarrel image so that there wasn't so much of the white part of the explosion visible and I think that Big Boa's image could have been moved to the right just a touch. I really like the TNT card art though. He just looks a cold MFer. |

One other small change I would have made: I think the code names and specialties should have been right-justified instead of centered.
As far as I can tell, those words were lined up to the right from '82 through '94, so I'm not sure why the club decided to have the two sets of words centered with respect to each other. |

I still think Jinx would be the best if it wasnt for her horrid smirk and fat chine face thing going on...

I'd like to say that a couple of these look kind of awkward and some of the digital art could be better in spots, but the truth is a lot of it's pretty nice and the shakier spots are no worse than some of the 25th art. You could put anything in front of that explosion and it warms my childish heart.
Since I open my stuff, I'd be fine paying less shipping for a figure in a tiny box, but these are still cool. I hate that I'd just destroy these cards. Also: TNT will casually murder you without a thought. He's seen some shit. |

Hmm. Well, aside from CoverGirl, these look much better in context and of course at the smaller size.
TNT actually came out much better than I expected! I wish Covergirl could be redone, but I'm overall very excited for the subscription and will definitely be in for it. Jinx is a bit too "modern" photo real (using Mikes art from CS scarlett) to fit in with the other vintage stuff, but the drawing is at least solid. Cannot wait for Big Boa and Iron Klaw!! |

Looks pretty good to me. I don't even know who some of these characters are (TNT, Iron Klaw, etc.), but I'm sold.
