I quite like seeing functional reprints like this. Llanowar Elves is from a different era and has had a very long and fruitful reign.
I actually prefer the flavor of Arbor Elf and it's ability to combo well with the myriad of land untapping and enchanting abilities in Green.

Llanowar elves 9-12. Some day, I want to be able to build a deck that has more druids than lands.

When 4 llanowar elves and 4 fyndhorn elves isn't enough! Heck, why stop there, throw in 4 arbor elf while you are at it.

I prefer functional reprints to actual reprints, nostalgia just isn't as important as extra options. In this case, extra copies.
At least, with useful cards. I wouldn't mind seeing Grizzly Bears come back.

I had mixed feelings about this card until I realized that if I want five Llanowar Elves in a deck, I can now have unique art for every single one of them.
Now if only we could get an alternate art reprint for Fyndhorn Elves. . . .

I like this. Arbor Elf was kind of cool when you have a shockland, but he was also kind of a whiff when you draw all checklands and/or something non-Forest like Sacred Foundry. This is more consistent.
(Although this doesn't help you cast Boros Reckoner like Avacyn's Pilgrim does. You could try to mitigate this issue with Burning-Tree Emissary, which allows you to cast Reckoner starting with say GGRR...)

At least I like the art a lot better than Llanowar Elves. I'd say I think they wanted to stay away from referencing as many random places, but then they have Xathrid Necromancer
