They're not horrible in terms of graphic design (except for VINTAGE MISHIMA written in giant letters--making them look cheap) but the new Vintage editions of Mishima are a big step down from their previous runs. Some of them are fine, just a little lazy, but the biggest thing is moving from a nice textured and reasonably tough (and still malleable) cover to a flat glossed and stiff cardboard.

Like I said, some of the designs are fine while others (pic) just look lazy. The biggest thing is the massive decline in quality. I'm sure they did it because his books have become more popular and they wanted to pump them out on a budget.
