Card Trivia:Malefic Truth Dragon


 * This is the second "Malefic" monster with no armor in the OCG.


 * This card is in a three-way-tie for highest ATK/DEF, the others being "Five-Headed Dragon" and "Dragon Master Knight", all of which are Dragon-Type and are Level 12.
 * Also, this card and "Five-Headed Dragon" are the strongest DARK monsters in the Game.
 * Out of all level 12 monsters, this is the easiest to Summon.


 * This card, along with "Yubel - The Ultimate Nightmare", "Red Nova Dragon", and "Machine Divine Emperor Machinecle Infinity", is the only Non-Fusion Level 12 monster in the game.


 * This is also the strongest non-Fusion/Synchro Monster ever shown, and with this card being released as a V-Jump/Shonen Jump Promo Card, this will also become the strongest monster Card that can be kept in the Deck.


 * This is also the strongest "Malefic" monster in terms of ATK and DEF.


 * This card's relation to "Malefic Paradox Dragon" is a reference to the nature of a paradox; though it may seem impossible, it is in fact true.
 * These two cards also represent Paradox himself; "Malefic Paradox Dragon" is the colours of his mask, while this card is the colour of his hair.
 * This card's art is also a reference to the Paradigm Shift concept itself. Its wings appear upside-down, its feet appear backwards, its tail juts out from its back, and its head almost looks the same upside-down as right side up.


 * This card and "Malefic Paradox Dragon" appear on the artwork for "Malefic Paradigm Shift".


 * Currently, this is the only "Malefic" monster to lack the ability to prevent your other monsters from attacking.


 * This is the third monster used in any of the anime or its movies to involve its duelist fusing into it. The first was "The Winged Dragon of Ra", which Yami Marik and Franz fused into, and the other is "Yubel - The Ultimate Nightmare", which Yubel fused into.


 * The anime effect that remove 1 "Malefic" monster to prevent it destruction is similiar to the anime effect of "Machine Divine Emperor Machinecle Infinity" that remove 1 "Machine Emperor" part to prevent it destruction.
