Dark Persian No 60 HP differences

So I know the holo is darker and it’s missing the HP but to the naked eye the cat looks bigger. I know there are many clever people on here can someone do an overlay? then overlay on whole card if possible, I wonder if there are more differences.

I’m not skilled enough to create that gif overlay, but it seems you’re indeed correct that Persian is slightly bigger on the no HP version. Pretty interesting and weird :confused: , but well spotted!

Here a pretty mediocre side-by-side made in MS Paint (sue me :sweat_smile: ), and although the pixels are likely a bit inaccurate, it does clearly show that the No HP Persian is bigger, since it has less room on the top and bottom sides (based on the two pictures you’ve provided). It also seems to have moved a bit towards the right in comparison.

Persian itself also seems to be slightly thinner itself on the No HP version; and the distance towards the right side is close to identical I think.

Now I’m also curious about that overlay. :wink:

The Promo stamped is in a different vertical position too

And the text for the moves is positioned closer to the line separating them too. Eg. The space below “defending”

Disregard everything I said, I was thinking Giovanni’s Persian :upside_down_face:

Sealdass also has a Persian with the same base Sugimori art. Only sharing in case it’s interesting as a visual comparison - this is not tcg.

This would be SO cool to do over the same card, same ‘print run’, same batch, to see all the variences. Master collectors, where we at?

Ok glad I’m not the only one who prefers the hp aspect ratio one! I didn’t want it to sound like cope since I don’t own the error myself :joy:
