Card Wipe would probably be better for this since it allows you to set different images on both sides of the cards. You can also use the wiggle settings in Card Wipe to scatter the cards randomly in space. It should work perfectly for this.

There's the card dance effect that allows you to set the number of rows / columns, what direction they flip from, and what's on the reverse side.

One could make a case that for an assembly line of transitions, AE might not be the best tool.  There's the world of projects for sale at sites like Revostock but... on this job I'm not looking for a whole design-y look/package, just cool transitions (as per my description).
