"Solar Wind Jammer":

This monster is based off of the concept of a solar sail, a form of spacecraft propulsion that uses the powerful electromagnetic emissions of the Sun to push a spaceship, similar to a regular sail on Earth.

This monster could also be inspired by the classic role-playing game Spelljammer, in which ships sail the stars using magic, or the animated movie Treasure Planet, a fantasy/steampunk version of the classic book Treasure Island where solar sails literally use the sun to sail across space.

This monster may draw influence from the science fiction short story Sunjammer by English author Arthur C. Clarke.

This card has similiar effects to "Cyber Dragon" and "Vice Dragon".
- Like both, it can be Special Summoned when one controls no monsters.
- Like "Cyber Dragon", it is a LIGHT Machine-Type monster.
- Like "Vice Dragon", it is ATK and DEF are halved when it is Special Summoned via its own effect.
