I do not like it, Sam-I-Am. It's incredibly restricted for what it does, it takes up your NORMAL SUMMON which means you can't Normal Summon anything else that turn unlike the other 3 you mentioned that SPECIAL SUMMON. In addition, the 3 you mentioned do something else while on the field. This gives absolutely no incentive to get it off the field. It's more so "Oh. Thanks for the free 2800 beatstick." Also, there's nothing saying that you can't play this on your own side, so you can essentially Tribute Summon a better Summoned Skull with self-burn. This card is just.....odd. I suggest making it a Special Summon to your opponent's field only as well as giving it a negative on-field effect to compensate for its power, especially since you designed this as the "4th Lava Golem".

Modified.

The reason it says Normal Summon is so it has the ability to bypass "no Special Summon" effects. For the most part it has the same drawbacks as Lava Golem and Volcanic Queen, who don't let you Normal Summon on the same turn they are Special Summoned, but it can't be stopped my simply preventing Special Summons. Allowing it to be Normal Summoned (on your side of the field) was intentional as well. As you suggested, it now has a  burn effect while on the field and, like Volcanic Queen, it has an effect that can be activated for the controller's benefit.
