Okay, so thank to @riddles-n-games and her to do list, I looked over the cover of TGG and found a few things.
The top clover petal. (Not sure what else to call that, sorry). Anyways, what is that thing the gears seem to be in? That semicircle thing. My first thought was a protractor like what you use in math. But I really don't think that's it.
What is that curvy metal object? It looks like a ring, but rings don't have that shape. Well, I guess some special made ones do. Would love to hear what you think.
The glass rose. We have had a glass ballerina, but never a rose. I wonder if this is a symbol for maybe one of the main female characters? Like Gigi or even Savannah? It is also the only rose on this cover. All of the other covers have had roses behind the main picture. This is the first time there is only one. And it is very small.
Sorry, this is really badly written. Also very blunt.
Thank you @riddles-n-games for giving me somethings to ponder over. I enjoyed it.

So now that we have a better scan - let me just elaborate a bit more on the details:
Bakugou:
The chest scar is definitely from his current injury, no face scar means he probably won't have one.
He is pointing either to the goat-skin on his shoulder (an All Might reference) or his sword, which has the same dragonscale pattern he and Izuku share on opposite shoulder pads (win and save? or OFA?)
The sword he's holding is different from the big All Might-sword from the 1st art, which then got divided between him and Izuku in the second art.
He's wearing the blue outfit from the second art, but got new orange arm wraps and his jewelleries changed too. Seems to have lost the cape.
Deku:
Deku lost the green vest and his cape is tattered, just like in the main story
His red boots have a goat-pattern too (All Might's "insignia")
He exchanged the big flaming sword for two smaller ones, but neither of them is drawn.
Shouto:
Shouto wears the same cape as Deku, with the same kind of gold button.
He doesn't have a dragon scale, but the shade of his outfit is the same colour, instead of his usual blue
His wearing black shirt and pants (unlike his previous white) just like Endeavor, but there is still a small white lace at his wrist left from his first outfit
The "black ice" curse / corruption from the second art turned into his hear-piece (which is shaped like a "V" either as a reference to victory / peace sign / or All Might"). It also became extra armor at the elbow of his left arm
His sword is drawn, just like Bakugou's
His hair is swept out of his left eye - displaying his fire side
He wears little loop earrings, similar to Dabi's
The Origin Trio are looking straight at us - nobody else is.
Endeavor:
Got rid of the white cape, but his fire is extinguished.
He wears all black with red accents
No weapon is visible
Iida:
Iida has a green Deku-cape but no gold button on it
His armor has been upgraded, there are three silver wings on it (will he get flight?)
His sword is also drawn
Kaminari:
I don't have much there - it's his first Fantasy AU appearance. The shape of his hat is also a bit like a "V"
Aizawa:
No weapon, wearing black like in the first art
Interestingly, he has also a tattered "Deku-cape". (could the green cape be the "saviour squad" - those characters with villain counterparts?)
He also has a "V" on his hat
Hawks:
His outfit changed to black
Same folded armed pose as Endeavor, no weapon
His wings are white with gold tips (like an angel)
Kirishima:
Biggest change is the dragon-bone head-piece with the feathers. No idea.
Uraraka:
Got a small Deku-cape and horns on her hat
There's a pink mark on her cheek - either a blush or a small scar
So, to summarize:
All Might's all sword seems to have been divided up into smaller ones
The dragon was slain, Bakugou and Deku both have pieces of its scale and very big Goat references to All Might
The Origin Trio is looking at us and only they share the purple accents (OFA reference?)
Deku, Shouto, Iida, Ochako and Aizawa all have the green cape (Saviour Squad? with villain counterparts?)
Shouto, Endeavor, Hawks and Aizawa are in black
All the kids have weapons, while none of the adults do
There are "V" / All Might references maybe on all the kids, but at least on Deku, Bakugou, Shouto and Ochako and Aizawa. (Class: 1-A aka. One for All?)

THE EDGE YOU CARRY WITH YOU
What is this
beguiling reluctance
to be happy?
This quickness
in turning away
the moment
you might
arrive?
The felt sense,
that a moment's
unguarded joy
might after all,
just kill you?
You know
so very well
the edge
of darkness
you have
always
carried with you.
You know
so very well,
your childhood legacy:
that particular,
inherited
sense of hurt,
given to you
so freely
by the world
you entered.
And you know
too well
by now
the body's
hesitation
at the invitation
to undo
everything
others seemed
to want to
make you learn.
But your edge
of darkness
has always
made
its own definition
secretly
as an edge of light
and the door
you closed
might,
by its very nature
be
one just waiting
to be leant against
and opened.
And happiness
might just
be a single step away,
on the other side
of that next
unhelpful
and undeserving
thought.
Your way home,
understood now,
not as an achievement,
but as a giving up,
a blessed undoing,
an arrival
in the body
and a full rest
in the give
and take
of the breath.
This living
breathing body
always waiting
to greet you
at the door,
always
no matter
the long years
you've been
away,
still
wanting you
to come home.
-- David Whyte, from Still Possible

Robert Palmer // Looking For Clues
It's crazy, but I'm frightened
By the sound of the telephone (Oh, yeah)
I'm worried that the caller
Might have awful news (Oh my)
Who knows these days
Where on earth the money goes (Oh, yeah)
No doubt we could put it to a better use (Oh my)
You keep insisting that nobody showed you
How to keep relationships (Oh, yeah)
Your daddy made a real good try (Oh my)
You said you knew all along
We could work it out (Oh, yeah)
Do you have to make a fuss every time we fly?
Ooh, I'm looking for clues
