Card Trivia:Dark Armed Dragon
Revision as of 03:45, 5 October 2014 by Michael.l.vaughn (talk)
- In the TCG, this card's first release is a Secret Rare, while in the OCG, it's simply a Rare, and so it is far less valuable despite its powerful nature.
- This is the DARK version of "Armed Dragon LV7".
- This is one of the only two Dark counterparts of a "LV" monster, the other being "Dark Horus".
- Just as the "Horus" and "Armed Dragon" archetypes came in the same set, Soul of the Duelist, their DARK forms came together in the same set of Phantom Darkness.
- At one time, this was one of the most sought after cards in the TCG, selling for as much as $250.00.
- In March 2009, this card took the place of "Twin-Headed Behemoth" as the only Dragon-Type on the Advanced Format Lists, while "Twin-Headed Behemoth" is now Unlimited. It was later joined by "Black Rose Dragon" (which has since become Unlimited). At the current moment, it is one of two Limited Dragons, the other being "Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon".
- This card appears in the artworks of "A Major Upset", "Dark Mambele" , "Draconnection" and "Dracocension".
- This card as another counterpart: "Metaphys Armed Dragon"
- This monster's summoning condition is similar to the special summoning condition of "Knight of the Red Lotus".
