Card Trivia:Dark Strike Fighter
Revision as of 13:57, 16 August 2011 by RikoTheFoxKid (talk)
- The explosion in this card's artwork is similar to those featured on the "Reactor" monsters. Both this card and the "Reactors" are used by Greiger in the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime and are depicted as partly-humanoid machines resembling aircrafts. "Trap Reactor・Y FI" is even used in tandem with "Black Salvo", another one of Greiger's cards, to make this card, further establishing the link between this card and the "Reactor" archetype.
- This card's effect is an advanced version of "Cannon Soldier's" effect.
- This card was the first Synchro Monster to become Forbidden. On March 1st, 2011, it was joined by "Goyo Guardian".
- This is the fifth card to go from being Unlimited to Forbidden instantly. The previous four were "Time Seal", "Victory Dragon", "Chaos Sorcerer", and "Cyber-Stein", in that order. It was later followed by "Substitoad", "Mass Driver", and "Fishborg Blaster".
- This card bears a resemblance to "Flying Fortress SKY FIRE".
- This card is one of only a handful of cards that has a superior effect in its OCG/TGC incarnation than in its anime incarnation, with the reverse meant to be the case.
