The Wind-Up, also known as Mainspring, are a series of wind-up toy-like monsters that are premiering in Generation Force.
The effects of the known "Wind-Up" monsters varies from Special Summon and Swarm tactics to Level and ATK manipulation to gaining field advantage. All of these varied effects make the "Wind-Up" monsters useful for Synchro Summoning and Xyz Summoning. Each "Wind-Up" monster can only use its effect once while it's face-up on the field. Support cards include flipping "Wind-Up" monsters face-down or returning them to your hand, allowing you to re-use their effects.
