There is really very little cubable in there right? Maybe 10 or so cards I think. As for my cube in particular, it looks like just Living Death and maybe Urza's Rage. Just want to check to make sure I'm not missing out on a good deal.
Yavimaya Elder, Phyrexian Processor, Armadillo Cloak, Urza's Rage, Living Death, Harrow, Coalition Relic, Bone Shredder, Priest of Gix, Dark Ritual, Lightning Greaves and Phyrexian Arena all have potential Cube applications.
I'll personally need the Elder (new face upgrade), Living Death (new face upgrade from WB Battle Royale version) Bone Shredder (new face upgrade), Urza's Rage (foily new face upgrade). I don't like the new Processor art and I have a signed one so that will stay.
It's going to be damn-near impossible to beat the original Phyrexian Processor art... that card looks amazing.
Any other cube-worthy cards get alternate arts?
I actually like the new art for that one much better. I was never a huge fan of the original, though, so YMMV. The original looks a little goofy to me, and the new one very stark and creepy.
Yeah, sorry, I should have posted the link. I like the new Processor and Key a lot. The Elder is extremely weird and ugly IMO, but I'd probably use it anyway just because it's more interesting.
I love the new Processor art. It reminds me of the cocoons and egg sacks from Aliens. Also, we finally get a black minion token to go along with the card!
I like the new art for Armadillo Cloak quite a bit but ours is currently Japanese foil Invasion so I don't think we'll be making that upgrade. I also don't much care for the new Yavimaya Elder art enough to switch out old card face for new card face. So the only cards I'd be remotely interested in acquiring from this thing would be Processor and Rage. And again, I don't know that the new art is worth upgrading from the old card face to the new one. I gotta say, I'm not too impressed with this one.
So the consensus is pass. Sounds good to me. Allows me to save my money for FtV:R, though I get a feeling I'll already have most of the cards in that as well.

EDIT: It's tiny and hard to see, but still...
New Voltaic Key looks neat.

I'm guessing the middle one's processor? I honestly have no idea.
