I wish they had a set of judge swords... I really want to get judge swords, but I know it'll bother me that two of them don't match. Anyone else feel this way?
I feel like it's just a matter of time, all 5 judge swords will be printed sooner or later.
Just like all the high dollar cards from P3K, they will all get the judge foil treatment sooner or later.
3. Old "brown" frame is sweet but it feels a little off on these cards anyway since Equipment obviously didn't exist pre-8th Ed (aside from pseudo eqipment like Ashnod's Battle Gear).
The biggest problem with the judge Swords is that they didn't change up the art, so it's not really a matching set. I'd much rather have the matching set of new art, new border versions from Scars block and Modern Masters. The different art styles bothers me on the old border judge foils. I really wish they would have commissioned Mark Zug to do new art on the Feast and Famine judge foil.
All three of those options are sweet. 7th gives you an old-frame foil, but the promo gives you foil Guay art. I think I like her art so much more in this case that I'd be willing to run the uglier frame, even with the bad watermark.
Thalia will be this year's WMCQ promo (see attachment). Which version do you like better?

I looove foil OG Thalia, though. The foiling job on her is amazing. Can you run both?

2. I don't mind mismatched swords, any more than I'd mind a Beta Llanowar Elves next to pack foil Joraga Treespeaker
3. Old "brown" frame is sweet but it feels a little off on these cards anyway since Equipment obviously didn't exist pre-8th Ed (aside from pseudo eqipment like Ashnod's Battle Gear).
Maybe I'll just shoot for the existing set of 5.

Speaking of, I managed to pick up a foil timeshifted Disenchant for cheap and love it. Foil "beta" is really cool.
I have a foil Timeshifted, and it's okay. I saw a judge foil in person though and it looks really nice.

I've seen both. Timeshifted old border is nice, but the foil is dark and underwhelming. Judge is much brighter.

Yeah that's how I feel too. Seems like you already knew the answer to your own question
