(I mentioned it in the thread that features the card, but repeating it here since I would bet most people will skip that thread).

Gold Sarcophagus aka Sealed Gold Coffer aka Golden Chest of Sealing.

Normal Spell
Select 1 card from your deck and Remove it from Play. On your 2nd standby phase after activating this card, add the selected card to your hand.

Have fun.

I thought it was already limited on the OCG Forbidden List?? Unless UDE just wants to give us a little playing time with it before the March 1st List, I'm sure it will follow suit.

No. As the controller of Lightforce Sword, it targets a card in your OPPONENTS hand, and removes it from play.

This card allows you to search your Deck like Different Dimension Capsule, but without the added burden of trying to keep DDC from being destroyed before you can claim whatever card you chose.
 
The card we have, "Different Dimension Capsule", needs to remain on the field for the 2 turns. If it's removed from the field before the 2 turns is up, then the card you chose is stuck in the RFP zone face-down.

This card does not need to remain. So, pretty much, you're guaranteed to get the card you chose.
 
a) It is restricted to 1 in the OCG already (March 07 list). So it should stay as that come September too.

b) The card you described Kingpinopie would be Lightforce Sword which is completely different. What you're probably thinking about though is Different Dimension Capsule. There are 2 differences:
1) The card is removed face-up instead of face-down (so you can combo Dimension Fusion and the like if you selected a Monster).
2) DDC stays on the field so it can be destroyed and otherwise cause you to not get the card you selected. Gold Sarcophagus does not stay on the field and you are guarenteed to get the card 2 turns later.

Knock it off. Shrink was an SJC card, and now even I have one. Of course, nowadays people don't think as much of it, as they look at Rush Recklessly and Riryoku as well.

I don't think it's quite as good as you guys make it out to be. Having that card removed from play face-up means your opponent knows what it is, and has a chance to deal with it (if it's a worrying card). Also, the game may have turned between activating and getting the card, so the card is less useful (or entirely useless).

I haven't heard of anyone playing Different Dimension Capsule, and I'm willing to bet it's not just because of keeping it face-up for a while.
 
People don't play Different Dimension Capsule because it's a risky card with a high amount of S/T removal out there and that if it does get popped, Primal Seed would be the only way to get those cards back to your hand and with both Envoys banned, that would leave Destiny Hero - Diamond Dude as the only way to get that card off. Now if they didn't stay on the field like Gold Sarcophagus does, then they'd see a lot more play (of course they'd also BE Gold Sarcophagus in that case for all practical purposes and likewise restricted a long time ago).
 
well.. i see..... well for all intensive purposes, this is a kick butt card..... hmmm.. I bet you could put that card out of play, then Ret from DD it and then it goes outta play at the end of that turn..... then a turn later (ie. 2 standby phases or whatever the timeframe is).. u get it in your hand... oh.. how fun..... ** stares off into nothingness thinking of the possibliities ..***
 
That would most likely reset the effect, kingpinopie. I don't think if "Fibar Jar" returns it to the deck, it will be coming to the field on that second Standby Phase, for example =P.
 
not just gaining the card 2 turns later is garenteed, since it removes it face-up, if you select a monster, you can immediately activate say RftDD or Dimension Fusion after Gold S and you can immediately special summon the monster you selected. (e.g. DMoC)

well it does get put outta play in face up, so rftdd can be used.. .. however, i dont believe it would reset the effect cuz at end phase is when the card would get put back to the outta play area.. so at the end of that turn, it is outta play.... so ... does anyone know.... is it legal to then place it in your hand 2 standby phases later? since there is no verbage on the effect of the card to say yay or nay, i would assumne that it would be legal... .. or is that out of the specified mechanics of the "effect" .... well... of the game....?

Well like I said, it most likely has to have been and stayed in the RFG for all that time for it to actually be added to the hand.

I'll use "Dark Ruler Ha Des" for my proof.

"¢ If one of these Effect Monsters is removed from play (by "Soul Release" for example) and then returned to the Graveyard with "Miracle Dig", the negation condition was lost and the effects will now be active.

So it leads on to the thinking that while it is where it SHOULD go is where the effect applies. So moving it will disrupt the effect.
 
ya, but that is a different circumstance tho isnt it? it goes from the grave to outta play..... in this case it goes from outta play to in play then beck out.. never touches a graveyard, and so it doesnt have a stipulation put on it in the same way... however, I do see your point, it does leave its designated area, so i can see how that effect would be reset.... I guess what Im saying is I can justify it either way.... does anyone know if there has been any official rulings on this at all?
I guess you could also compare it to a swarm of scarabs being flipped up for some reason during your opponents turn, then u use book of moon to flip it down, and then flip it up to flip summon it,,, you can then use its effect to flip it back down again...... or any other flip effect monster that gets turned down, the effect is reset...and can be used again..
 
Well guys, I'm heading up to Indy this week for the GenCon/SJC, so I'll be sure to win one of the four Golden Chest of Sealings (Or Golden Sarcophagus, whats the offical name?).
Wish me luck. :D
