I disagree Most Cobb images to me are fantastic, and the less-used the image on multiple cards the better. The D304 set as a whole is cartoonish as it is and the Cobb image is one of the few closeups in the set. I don't like it as much as the T227 image but certainly more than the E101/102 etc. image which really appears like a cartoon to me.
