Like if two male clones met two female clones
would their kids look like each others kids?

absolutely not. Chromosomes undergo crossovers and random assortment. Say this person had three genes. Gene 1 the person has one copy of genotype A and one of genotype B, For gene 2, they have C and D. For 3 they have E and F. The first father produces a sperm with ACE and the mother ADE. The second father produces a sperm with BCF and the mother an egg with ACF.
The child of the first couple will be AACDEE, and the second couple's child will be ABCCFF. They will be genetically different from both each other and the parents. Notice that this is why we don't like exacly like our own siblings even though we have the same parents.

Yes and no. A bit of history so you know how different peoples came to be.
Many hundreds of years ago when a tribe became too large for the area to support there would be one leader that would take mostly females out of the tribe and go to another area to start a new tribe. The leader would be the one for many years producing the dhildren and most definately they all will have most of the same looks but at the same time all be different.
There is a group in Vietnam that nearly all in that area have very flat faces and the nose does not protrude very far. Most definately can be traced back to one individual.
Some of the kings of england priduces hundreds of children and also this shows in the decendents.
Twins, triplits and so on are clones They can look very much the same but not exactly. They also are much alike not completely. They are different and this will hold true no matter how the clones come about.

Clones are exact genetic matches of one another, so they are not the result of sexual reproduction. If those two sets of clones got together and had children through sexual reproduction, there is only a 1 in 8 million chance that they will have identical children due to crossing over and the splitting of chromosomes at their centremers during meiosis.

One would think so, since the children would have the exact same DNA, but, the children could inherit some genes from a family member a few generations back. It's impossible, to say with 100% certainty, that the children would be exactly the same.

nope, a lot of recombination goes on during meiosis. They wouldn't look any more like the parents than any child born to non-clones now.
One thing though, the two sets of kids would be 'cousins' but would look genetically like brothers and sisters.

no the would not look like each others kids.
though the clones were the "same"... there would then be the randomization of "sperm" and "ovum" production. Thus giving their off spring individuality.
though you could say that there would be a familial resemblance.

nicely, my tackle that's this: interior the very beginning, of Adam and Eve, they have been in Eden. All became suited... So Eve isn't a a twin of Adam. God made Adam. God made Eve. It would not advise he genetically cloned them... returned to the perfectness. because of the fact God made the international suited, there may well be no abnormalities. See, there became no technology then, in basic terms GOD. that's not that troublesome to comprehend in case you make the hassle to earnings it, and learn it. once you're curious adequate to ask different, perchance you're able to easily try sorting out your self and examining up.

Maybe not because the pairs of chromosomes from the mother and the father of the two childs would not be the same. Like one child is taking 21st pair of chromosome from father but another one can get it from the mother.

good question, I would presume that they would be different because of the difference in genes, but only from the parents, but would the kids look different I would presume not

Most likely. All the DNA would be the same, but there is still the chance for a mutation in DNA replication.
