I own one (got it from Amy Weber) and it's exactly the normal MTG carstock (passes the bend test by the way), with a perfect MTG back and the dot pattern looks like normal older white cards too (I have the Mesa Pegasus picture).

Just the colors are a bit brighter and of course the font is different. picture's wrong etc.

In other words, mine at least looks exactly like a WOTC produced test print.
Hi Enrico.
I never check mines, as I have Never submit a bend Test to any of my cards so I can't say if they pass the Test.
Hello Alexis, yes I realize that.

But what about the "inferior cardstock" issue and poor printing quality? Would you agree with that?

My card certainly doesn't appear so poor.

One Magic player of our group has buyed such a booster and he throw the cards away. Unfortunately I never buyed such a pack, so I can't confirm this whole thing.
But I also believe that these cards were fakes. Alexis, you should check the cards carefully (print dots, bending test,...).
Maybe there exist both, real test prints and fake ones, but I don’t know why someone would fake those…
