Card Trivia:Five-Headed Dragon
- This card is based off the modern representation of a Mesopotamian god, Tiamat, which was popularized in the 1970's thanks to the Dungeons and Dragons role-playing game. Both Dungeons and Dragons and Yu-Gi-Oh! represent Tiamat as being a multi-headed dragon, but no ancient texts exist where there is a clear association with a dragon.
- The mechanized head represents the WIND attribute, the center tan one represents the EARTH attribute, the black one represents the DARK attribute, while the FIRE and WATER heads represent their own attributes, respectively. There is no LIGHT attribute head, referencing its effect of only being able to be destroyed by LIGHT or DIVINE monsters.
