Final Attack Orders?*brick'd"
OT: ... kinda disappointed that they didn't add the gender-specific clause--*cinderblock'd*
Really OT: Dear god, why the hell did they go and do that for?! I'd rather summon a third material so as to go NGEPD.

I would love it if it have that effect but that will be another load of works for konami to divide the catagories and debate a hell for some monster that can stand out either gender lol.

OT2: Geartown Fran Ken.... *shots*

It's outright terrible.

Honestly, they made it so bad it's barely even playable. In what situation would it be worth it to turn your 2 Gadjiltron Dragons into this instead of just keeping them on the field? There are hardly any significant monsters bar BLS that Geartown bosses can't run over.

I don't think they needed to add the Machine-Type restriction; they definitely could have just kept it as is and given Dark Worlds a somewhat plausible toy. As is, it's bad.

I'm saying, this is proof Gimmick Puppets are coming.

Well I don't know anything about the Gimmick Puppets so I won't judge, but I'm just saying, this is outright bad.

Unless you mean the Rank 8 Gimmick Puppets, both of which seem quite good; at least much better than this.

- Rank 8: 2 Level 8 Machine-Type monsters

Saw some conditions coming here but... Machines? Seems... weird, although more viable than Zombies.


- Cannot be Special Summoned, except by Xyz Summoning it, and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways.

Perfectly fair.


- Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card and send 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard to target 1 face-up card your opponent controls; change this card to Defense Position, and negate the effect of the target until the End Phase of this turn.[color=#333333] ([b]Effect unconfirmed[/b])[/color]

Minus one and this thing being unable to attack/get run over for a Veiler? Really?


Quite disappointed, expected a big nerf but as always gone from far overpowered to near useless. You'd probably be better off just summoning it and Omi-Gami Combo. That's saying something.

[s]Why did they remove the can't attack females clause?[/s]

ATK strength seems slightly wierd nowadays. I mean, how on Earth does this look stronger than Quasar and Obelisk?

Any Tanhauser Gate and Rescue Rabbit targets for this?

5, actually. Battle Footballer being the most notable for having 2100 DEF. The others are Blocker, Golgoil, Mighty Guard, and Yaiba Robo.

As for the card itself: it rather sucks. I hope, though, that it really does signal the approach of Gimmick Puppets. It would be funny to see them and maybe even Destiny Strings made.
