I like original for aesthetic purposes. The FNM one has neat artwork but the FNM/DCI stamps drive me up the walls.
Finally someone agrees with me that the FNM/DCI stamp looks like junk.

I guess it's a petty reason but the stamp just looks so ugly to me. In addition I am frequently frustrated by FNM/DCI releases as usually the artwork is out of this world and by great artists but ruined by the stamp. A lot of retailers devalue foil staples from the original sets when the release a promo foil which I disagree with as I believe there is a significant market for the original foils - Annoying to deal with at least at the local level.

I hate the old FNM square logo and refused to get those foils for my cube. The DCI logo and new shooting star FNM things are fine by me. I just found the FNM box so ugly ><

I didn't have anything against the box or anything for it but I like the "FRIDAY NIGHT MAGIC" imprint they are using now.

now those alters are crazy. Very nice. Not sure why I like the guru lands so much, but they've always been awesome... and now added to FoW. With our powers combined!
