It debuted in ''[[Vol.2]]'' in ''[[OCG]]'', ''[[Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon]]'' in the ''[[TCG]]'', and ''[[Deck Mod Pack: Hyperspeed Rush Road!!]]'' in ''[[Rush Duel]]''. ==Overview== The Machine-Type represents various machineries, including but not limited to robots, automata, androids, and general-purpose machines. Some appear to be classically humanoid robots (such as "[[Machine King]]"), while others are absurdly humanoid (such as "[[Amazement Assistant Delia]]"), and others yet are simpler in shape (such as "[[Shreddder]]"). Machines may also resemble non-human living beings, such as members of the "[[Cyber]]" archetype. Most Machine monsters come in [[EARTH]], [[DARK]], or [[LIGHT]], although there are Machines for each of the six primary [[Attribute]]s. Machine monsters and support are typically associated with pushing for extremely high [[ATK]], with the effects of cards like "[[Power Bond]]", "[[Limiter Removal]]", or "[[Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Juggernaut Liebe]]". High-level Machine monsters are also famous for either having absurdly high [[Original ATK and DEF|original ATK]] such as most members of the [[Supercolossal]] and [[Train]] series, very strong protection effects such as "[[Apoqliphort Towers]]" or "[[Super Quantal Mech King Great Magnus]]", or great removal effect such as "[[Dingirsu, the Orcust of the Evening Star]]" or "[[Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS - Sky Thunder]]". "[[Cyber Dragon]]", one of the most influential monsters in the history of the ''OCG''/''TCG'' metagame's development, is a Machine monster. While there are a wide array of Machine Archetypes and Series with diverse playstyle. Many of the prominent Machine themes such as "[[Cyber Dragon]]" and [[Train]] were usually geared towards offensive gameplay, usually involves neutralizing the opponent's threats (usually via mass removal effect) to make way for them to deal a large amount of damage. While some others such as "[[Machina]]" and "[[Orcust]]" focus on defensive grind game and utilizing various disruption effect to outlast the opponent before quickly finish them off. It should be noted that not all robotic/mechanical monsters are Machine or [[Cyberse]] type. Examples of robotic/mechanical monsters that aren't Machine-Type or [[Cyberse]]-Type include, but aren't limited to: the "[[Rokket]]" and "[[Borrel]]" monsters, the "[[Raidraptor]]s", the "[[Warrior (archetype)|Warrior]]s", and many of the "[[Scrap]]" monsters. ==Archetypes/Series== ===Pure=== * [[A-to-Z]] * [[Ally of Justice]] * [[Ancient (archetype)|Ancient]] / [[Ancient Gear]] / [[Ancient Gear (anime)]] * [[Appliancer]] * [[B.E.S.]] * [[Beastborg]] * [[Beetron (series)|Beetron]] * [[Boot-Up]] * [[Chimeratech]] * [[cular]] * [[Crystron]] * [[Cyber Dragon (archetype)|Cyber Dragon]] * [[Debugger]] * [[Deskbot]] * [[Dinomist]] * [[Drytron]] * [[F.A.]] * [[Geargia]] / [[Geargiano (archetype)|Geargiano]] * [[Gimmick Puppet]] * [[Gizmek]] * [[Gun Dragon]] * [[Infinitrack]] * [[Jinzo (archetype)|Jinzo]] * [[Jointech]] * [[Junk Robot]] * [[Karakuri]] * [[Konami Arcade Games]] * [[Machina]] * [[Machine King (series)|Machine King]] * [[Magnum Overlord]] * [[Mecha Phantom Beast]] * [[Meklord]] (and sub-archetypes) * [[Newspaper]] * [[Numeron Gate]] * [[Orcust]] * [[Power Tool]] * [[Qli]] / [[Apoqliphort]] * [[Robo]] * [[Satellite (series)]] * [[Speedroid]] / [[Hi-Speedroid]] * [[Spirit (archetype)|Spirit]] / [[Spirit Gem]] * [[Springans]] (except "[[Springans Kitt]]") * [[Starship]] * [[Super Defense Robot]] * [[Super Quantal Mech Beast]] * [[Supercolossal]] * [[Superheavy]] / [[Superheavy Samurai]] * [[Symphonic Warrior]] * [[Tentacluster]] * [[Train]] * [[Turbo]] * [[Ultimate Flag]] * [[Vehicroid]] * [[Wheel]] * [[Worker Warrior]] ===Mixed=== * [[Amazement]] * [[Cyber]] ** [[Cyberdark]] * [[Drone]] * [[Gadget]] * [[Genex]] ** [[R-Genex]] ** [[Genex Ally]] * [[Kozmo]] * [[Morphtronic]] * [[Reactor]] * [[Rescue-ACE]] * [[roid]] * [[Sky Striker]] * [[Super Quant]] * [[Synchron]] * [[Time Thief]] * [[Toy]] * [[Vaylantz]] * [[World Legacy]] ==In other media== In the first season of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!
