I've got no idea what's going on with the Gold one. It looks like whoever was doing the design got bored half way through.
Anyway, I can make my own new Bronze card out of an old chocolate Aero wrapper. It's not as bad as the original Bronze card which was properly rubbish.

File me under apathetic. Membership card[s] go straight into the Travel Wallet and never emerge until the next renewal. Bag tags [if similar] are just bag tags, not jewellery or fashion items.

If you turn the photo sideways on the Gold one and keep staring at it without blinking for about 20 seconds, like those hidden picture puzzles, you can see the letters BA in it. Very clever!

Google IAG Results Presentation and on page 32. Who knows what this means but there have been rumours.
Enhance IAG’s common integrated platforms
Fleet: entry into service of new generation A350s and A320neos
– Avios transformation
– Digital roll-out
– Hybrid cloud
Back on topic, the Gold and Silver cards look ok but Bronze looks awful!
Whatever style they were going to be they were always going to be heavily scrutinised on flyertalk, positive or negative.

Did you, or others, fall for it?
Well, I did actually have you in mind as I thought I'd keep the old ones busy in these long darkening night's. I thought I was doing a good deed

This design suits more QR, can't see much "British heritage" here.
Let's hope for the best reg. programme changes, I can indeed live with an ugly BAEC card I never see anyway.

I am seeing:
Bronze: A skull covered in spider's web (the big 'holes' being the eye sockets)
Silver: pretty neutral
Gold: Cartoon poo with a fly around it, as mentioned earlier

I typically sell gold cards on ebay, for some reason people buy them, and I give the Ł to charity. Never had to use a card in 10+ years. Everything that card does is now covered in either phone app or boarding pass.
