It is the FTV foiling process. Notice the vertical shine lines that FTV foils have and no other foils have. These new expditions are probably shinier but shine the exact same way the FTV foils shine.
For example, I don't know if Mana Crypt was ever reprinted before this year, and that was basically a book promo that was incredibly difficult to get in good condition. Yes, there are one or two dud in the Masterpiece artworks, but damn if most of them don't just knock it right out of the park.
Yeah, because the "ultra rare" expeditions really suppressed the prices of the normal cards. I tough people would start to see a low effort cash grab, but no. How can people be hyped about this,just after we got conspiracy, really baffles me.

Ill hold off on deciding whether or not i will go for incentions until ive seen the foiling irl. Ftv foil is a dealbreaker for me. Just give me mercadian masques foiling and im happy to pull the trigger. Im not dropping several thousand euro to acquire ftv.cards also, they better finish the dang swords of x y cycle because the mismatches are already terrible.
The problem is that you cant master-series if everything is ugly ftv foiledw, but u also wont be able to get consistent foiling if they change it -> master series dead on arrival
How can we get hyped when it's clear Wizards understands reprints are needed and is demonstrating it will reprint those cards? Oh, I duuno.
I mean, cmon. Are we really gonna grumble about how theyre not printing ENOUGH? Shouldn't we congratulate Wizards for doing what everyone wants them to do?
Printing them in form of expedition is questionable move. I mean, it's defintely better than not reprinting them at all in any form, but to say these expedition reprints will change any prices of the regular versions of these particular cards is obviously wrong. Expeditions cater to specific market, the ones that have the money to buy luxury items as these obviously are at this rarity. If anything it will create a possibility that new rares/mythics will be cheaper simply due to the sheer volume of new boxes opened (people looking for the ghost, super ultra rare expeditions), thus potnetially lowering the price of potentially playable eternal cards (or even standard for that matter).
