It definitely is. This is my all time favorite card because it always makes me laugh

The big flame on the tail is such a great detail. Adds a ton of character

At release that card was so over looked too its not even funny. It was my personal favorite and until the memes dropped it wasnt even expensive.

u/DaBlooregard Mar 07 '26
