Card changes for Wave 3

I'm curious to know what changes everyone has seen in the cards reprinted for Wave 3?

Some of them have obvious changes (#083) while a few have text changes (#011, #080, #209). And I also noticed #047 has a playing card symbol now and it didn't before.

Anyone catch changes to the other cards?

Differently Lethal has a much redder background
and 13th Labour now has a purple shiny border.

I do not have the cards in front of me (they are at home today), but I do recall that #182:Transit and #185:Spin Cycle look "remastered." They are a lot more clean, clear, and have better contrast in the recent printing. They are both, basically, photographs of printed pages and it looks like they took better photos this time around.

I don't have Spin Cycle but Transit's definitely a lot cleaner - the writing isn't blurry, the ghost writing at the bottom of the page has gone as have the horizontal lines through the 7th and 11th line of text. You can also see more of the chapter title now - ???MIT (presumably SUMMIT) TO THE CURIOUS/

I've also noticed that on #184 Love Letters the mysterious 'h' that was floating around at the bottom of Tippy's sheet of paper has disappeared. Also on #150 A Journey in the Desert an extra clause has been inserted into the problem - namely, you're not allowed to leave the cars waiting around in the desert - presumably to make the puzzle clearer.

Pawnbroking is different too. The background colours have changed.
