The misprinted T-Chinese 4th Edition creatures with tiny P/T is not a new topic, and it is known that there exists at least:
Brass Man
Carrion Ants
Killer Bees
Wall of Air
What is interesting, however, is the backside of Killer Bees in the above pic:
It appears this error is also present on the artist proofs (or at least the APs for Killer Bees, as those are the only I own). Can anyone think of how this error would be caused? And why it would also be present on the artist proofs?

Don't think we can make that work. These are all uncommons (4) and only one uncommon was dropped (fire elemental) so there wouldn't be enough slots (121 Uncommons in the set)--must have been different sheets. Why? No idea.l0qii wrote:Like I mentioned before, the only thing I can think of is that Killer Bees and Carrion Ants were in the sheet twice, filling the slots of cards that were removed from the set. Could that be possible?

Ok, thanks for verifying. I couldn't remember which chinese cards were missing exactly or what the rarity was.
I guess we have to assume there were 2 different sheets, with minor differences on 4 cards. Why would they use both sheets for the proofs though? It's such a short print run, it just doesn't make any sense.

It would be interesting to find out from the artists just how many AP they got for that set. My SWAG is that CM grabbed the sheets they had left and cut them. There may have only been one or two of one of the sheets and there may not have been a total of 50 even. I know some AP batches were quite different than others as far as count is concerned. What I really wonder is if there are many more other cards that have the scruntched p/t.
