The new set looks good. Random thoughts: I really like Bull Curry. I did not have this one in black and white so he is new to me. Looks strong. Maybe my favorite of the set.
I look forward to putting Killer Kowalski into title contention. Great stats. I'm not sold on his art. I know how difficult it is to find good reference photos of some of these guys (do an image search to find out) but this pose does not strike me as an iconic Killer Kowalski pose.
Al Snow should be a lot of fun to use. I plan to feud him with Shane Douglas straight away.
I like Ox Baker's card better than the b&w. He looks like he will play at about the same level as the old card but this one, like so many of the color cards, just seems more accurate.
Just great stuff all around. If I have one complaint, it is the printing of the cards. The card art is just too dark. Werner does such a brilliant job coloring and shading his art but some of that did not translate to the hard copies. They appear almost muddy, especially Francine (which is a shame because that is possibly the best art of the bunch).

All the beer & cigarettes have been bad for Sandman. Between his b&w card and his new color card he's put on 29 lbs š² I was wondering if people would catch this. Sandman was announced at this weight during his longest reign as ECW champ in ā95. So I thought I would use that as one way to make the card different from his original B&W card.

To each his own on what is preferred, but the new card is definitely weaker than the old one... Yes, the new card has a slightly better PIN rating, but he loses two reversals on defense (1 in level 1, and one in level 2), and he now has a down-3 on level 2 also.

I got my set in the mail today with some other things I picked up. Excited to bring a lot of these guys in. Problem with that is Iām going on vacation and already held tournaments to see who gets to go on tour. However Francine will Debut as one of the 12 ladies that are going on the tour.

Pikemojo told me just a few minutes ago that, on the LOW Facebook page, Bill Alfonso just liked his card art and Alfonso even changed his main Facebook profile picture to his new LOW color card art.

It was mailed to everyone last Wednesday. I find its usually about a week to get to the UK. For some reason it often takes longer to get to Canada.
