These are reportedly coming "this spring". I like the new look!
They're out. In my opinion the nicest cover art (for a US mass market paperback release) in over 30 years.

The designs for Fellowship and Two Towers look okay (though if I were to nitpick, I’d say the Doors of Durin seem a bit squished).
In any case that White Tree looks dubious - it’s giving me creepy Halloween vibes

I'm not saying they're perfect, though I do like them... but compared to all of the film tie-in editions over the past 20 years, they are (to me) a very welcome change. Nice colors too.
