It’s true. Bob Ross lands and using Frank Frazetta paintings as alternates for cards that already existed is actually the kind of Secret Lair stuff I don’t think negatively affects the game. They’re not shoehorning in IPs that break the game, it’s just good art that fits the feel. I totally have Bob Ross foils. Couldn’t get Frank before it sold out and not willing to pay the scalpers.
