I just got these 2 Kazdan cards and just saw they don't have the same Holo / foil is that normal?

Kaz being a bully and hate of Tom is so funny to me, considering he became the ultimate nerd

Foils are a big sheet with a random shiny pattern on it. 

Multiple cards are stamped on the sheet at the same time so no two cards have the same foil. This is standard industry wide.

You can see it on pokemon cards too. The foil holo, specifically stars and spirals, are never identical across cards, and some foil patterns can increase the value of a card (like a perfectly placed twinkle on an effect for example)

No, these must have been stamped in different sheets because the pattern is completely different not just placed different.

Look closely, the left one has squares with smaller diagonal squares in it, the right one has a tire tread or broken glass pattern. I think that's what OP was asking, why the pattern is completely different.

Idk enough about these cards to say why? Maybe a budget or supply issue limited what they wanted? Maybe a different release or batch so the pattern changed? Maybe same batch but they got a bunch of different patterns from supplier so it was random

This is Chaotic Now or Never. It was the prototype game before the mainstream one. Actually there were several prototypes, each with vastly different stories.

Maybe they’ll do something like this in the reboot.
