Card Trivia:Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon

In the English version of the game, the irony of this card, released in August 2004 as a promo for Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie: Pyramid of Light, was that it required Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon to be Tributed in order to summon this card. However, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon was not released in English until January 2006 as a Shonen Jump Promo. So before then, Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon was physically unplayable, even though it was technically legal for tournament use.
