    Thanks for the replies! Makes me feel a lot better.

    Yes, the color of the back was my biggest concern. I did a few light tests, and it seems comparable in light reflective qualities and about the same amount of light that passes through when shining a light behind it, when compared to a known real card.

    I had to upload the image of the deck backs again:

    Thanks again

    I purchased a Revised Edition Tundra on ebay, which is by far my most expensive single card purchase. I immediately noticed the back of the card is significantly darker than all of the other mtg cards I own. I don't know if I have any revised edition, but I do have a lot of older cards going back to at least to '94. Is it normal for Revised Edition card backs to be significantly darker?

    It won't let me upload a photo on this thread for some reason, so I put photos on a temporary storage site linked below. The card on top is the tundra, and the other card is a basic land from an older set with similar fonts/layout but I'm not sure what edition. The photo really doesn't capture the color difference very well. It's very noticeable in person.

    Other than that, the card seems very legit. The weight of the card seems comparable, looks similar when shining a light through it, and the print patterns are very similar when you zoom in on the picture of the card front.

    Thanks in advanced.

    Does Return to the Ranks trigger Heroic abilities when it targets cards like Phalanx Leader in your graveyard?

    Anyway, I'm guessing "no" because the creature is not on the battlefield when trigger resolves? I can't find that particular rule about triggered abilities though.
