Leon, the card doesn't need a review.

When the topics about the new flip design started here a few nights ago, I did an Ebay search for "1968 Topps Nolan Ryan SGC". I simply grabbed the cleanest image I could find from the results that came up. There weren't any high graded examples that were appropriate for what I was trying to do.

I took the picture previously graded card, and superimposed the new flip over the top of the old one so people could see what the new flip would look like next to a card, and on the slab. The second example I did, with the green border, just built upon the first example.

Here's the original before the new flip was superimposed:
