I believe when Wizards make an art decision, they acquire all rights to the commissioned art. And the artist has no control over how this art is used. Look at JtMS and see the art being on coins. I'm pretty sure Jason Chan couldn't do anything to stop it.
As disappointing as it is that we aren't getting a new Liliana card (LotV was never a possibility -- too strong), at least we're getting Liliana Vess instead of LotDR. Anyone who tries to argue that Dark Realms is a step up from the original has never played both of them.
I'm in love with the new Ajani art. Can't wait to see it on a card, regardless of if he's getting a reprint or a new card. May even just pick up the sleeves, even though they're Ultra-Pro.

What Sirius_B is saying is that reprinted planeswalkers in core sets always keep their old art. Since Ajani has a new art, he is likely getting a new card.
They could print an old Ajani with a new art, but that would be the first time they do something like that.
So Chandra Pyromaster is back. That's great, I was hoping for a reprint of her. Plus it looks like Jace lost his butt hole chin! Always glad to see that
That new Jace art in front of the guild crests makes me want the new jace. I'm hoping it will be "Jace, the Living Guildpact". Sounds awesome and shows an older side of Jace.
A blooper by MaRo? If true, then Ajani will probably be Goldmane as well.. ONly jace is up in the air, But strong indications point to the Architect of Thought.

What are you talking about? New art, new card. Only Liliana and Chandra are reprints. Ajani, Garruk, Jace, and Nissa will be new cards.
