Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Plushie

It's cute, it's menacing, and, most importantly (if you're a Kite fan), it's Galaxy-Eyes support!

Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Plushie
LIGHT Dragon/Effect - ATK/2000 DEF/1500

This monster is treated as "Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon" while on the field or in the GY. Cannot attack, unless you control another "Galaxy-Eyes" monster that is originally Level/Rank 8 or higher. While this card is on the field, you can Normal Summon 1 "Galaxy" monster in addition to your Normal Summon/Set (you can only gain this effect once per turn). Once per turn, you can discard one card; Increase this monster's Level to 8 until your End Phase. If this card is used as material for a Xyz Summon of a "Galaxy" monster, you can draw 1 card, also the Summoned monster gains the following effects:
● Cannot be targeted by your opponent's card effects.
● Once per turn you can attach one "Galaxy" or "Photon" card from your Deck or GY to this card.

I just wanted to drop the very obvious comment: That thing is disgustingly adorable, and I love it.

I don't have much else to say because the card looks pretty much balanced to me. If anything, I think the attaching effect it grants to the Xyz should something you could activate once while face-up on the field, but I don't really know much about Galaxy cards to know whether indefinite material recursion would be broken or not to fully embrace this suggestion. Other than that, perhaps you could let it attack if you just control another Galaxy-Eyes card other than itself, but then again, I think all Galaxy-Eyes cards are high Rank/Level anyway, so...

Regardless, I just came to say it was cute. I'm sure someone else with more knowledge about the archetype will make a better assessment of it, but it personally doesn't look broken to me.

The last effect could be slightly abused to keep the effects of the Galaxy-Eyes Xyz monsters running. Also due to the wording, it's possible that if you overlay two plushies you get to attach up to two materials (and so on). Could be fixed with an HOPT - that way, even if you have three Galaxy-Eyes Xyz monsters on the field all Summoned with Plushie, you could only attach one material to one of them once per turn.

Then again it's also a common strategy to overlay whatever you made right away into a stronger monster - and when you do that, the effects are lost.

About the attack restriction - it's a cute reason: small boi plushie needs a big boi galaxy-eyes to help him attack (Who am I kidding, it's because it's a Level 4 beatstick with 2000ATK!). If we dropped the original Level/Rank condition, we could just Normal Summon two Plushies and we'd be able to attack.

I actually didn't think about the problems of having multiple monsters with Plushie's inherited effects on the field. In that case, a HOPT definitely solves the issue. I thought that maybe letting it recover materials indefinitely could lead to easy Zeus prep, but I don't think it's fast enough for that to become an issue.

Also, when I said "attack if you control another Galaxy monster other than itself" I meant anything but another copy of itself. Bad wording on my part.

The last effect threw me for a loop. One thing I really don't like about Galaxy-Eyes dragons is that they've really similar names...

I actually like this card even more than the vanilla(?) Photon Plushie. It's like an inverse Zeus that gives the [Galaxy-Eyes] monster you overlay on top of it both protection and recursion. Probably the best way to use the plushies, considering you get more immediate materials this way. I'm still on the fence about the indefinite recursion, but once again, if nobody else said anything about it, then it's probably fine.

Can't wait for plushie Tachyon at the pace we're going... Those are Galaxy-Eyes too, right?

The artist did make a doodle for Tachyon too! I'll be working on it later.
(There are four main "races" of Galaxy-Eyes: Photon, Tachyon, Dark Matter, Cipher. There's also Afterglow and Solflare which support Photon)

You even made the chant, incredible.

Nothing much to say about the card, since I don't see any flaws with it. Though, considering this is supposed to be the stronger one (I think), maybe you could raise the passive boost per material to 200? I reckon the original having 3500, so that could be be a nice callback.

The second inherited effect is kinda crazy, though, but I'm willing to overlook that because it's too cute.

I don't know any more Galaxy-Eyes cards at this point, so if this somehow continues, I dunno what might come next, if anything at all. Pretty good job so far, regardless.

[davness]

I promise this shall be the last one
It's effects could also be possibly *very* broken, so watch out!

The one who deals in doubles, the one who scrambles the very meaning of existence! Make your presence known! Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Plushie!

I was born to witness this perfection. As a Galaxy-Eyes player, I'll commit crimes for this card to become real.
