Love Hydra's artwork. That's how you do exaggeration.

Overall the set looks amazing. Hydra is brilliant, Neo Solar background to match up with Ultramantis, bodysuit slightly tanner than his actual skin, muscle pose, just perfect.
Shane Storm looks great, glad his "That Japanese Move" T-shirt got props, well done.
STIGMA's card highlights the kick ass mask of his instead of the rest of his sub par bodysuit which he wears to the ring. Good call.
Crossbones could and should have been the opposite of STIGMA. Instead of a close up mask shot he really needed to be drawn back to show off the complete mask/bodysuit/girth that is so iconic with Crossbones. Give him the Neo Solar background like Ultramantis and Hydra, maybe even have him waving the flag of Ultramantis as he has done lately for the Spectral Envoy. A colored version of his indy card would have been outstanding. As it is I'll currently hold off using him until I switch to the LE Ultramantis "rudo" card. Crossbones will make a fine bodyguard with his red accents matching the LE Ultramantis.
Vin is great. The brooding pose lets anyone who does not know who he is exactly what his character's persona is all about. One good piece of art tells a thousand words(home run). Plus I tend to match tag teams/trios/atomicos with color schemes to better plan/plot out our tables. With the accents of red, blue, and yellow on Gerard he seamlessly fits the tag partner of either STIGMA or Storm(more than likely both when Unstable turns face.
Worker ant(yet to be seen)but hoping for a matching theme to the Colony. Simple pose, not to busy(leave the wrestle action poses for "Epic" upgrade cards like the new Green Ant and the updated Kobald). Match his background with the rest of the colony and make sure he has the trios move "Antapult". WE have the "MegaAntapult" with Green Ant but still miss the classic Worker/Soldier throwing Fire to the floor.
Very happy overall. Kudos to everyone that made these last two CKIKARMY packs happen.
P.S. Now all I need is an "orange" Hallowicked for Halloween...hey it could happen, Delirious got a color change up from his BDK back to Incoherence Green, so why not a special holiday card like Splatter Voorhies last year. No need to change the card just the color of the mask to better fit the Spectral Envoy's tendency to favor orange while Incoherence almost always favored the green of Delirious...hmm, I guess then we would need a "green" Frightmare as well...maybe an early Christmas list is in order. LOL!

With a Worker Ant card, in Lachikaras Vegas I will probably pair him with Fire Ant and Soldier Ant as the original Colony and then use the new Green Ant card released earlier this year to put him in more singles matches. |

Wow, some great card art and looking forward to mix up my roster now for my chikara fed. Stigma looks the best IMO. I also had to get the new Kobald card: I can't wait to play these cards! Why can't we get them now?! Lol
