There is a new promo, saw it last FNM. It is given out to anyone who became a wizards delegate.
(This is an unhinged card)
Its a foil green rare that has some fruitcake monster on it. The card does something with fruitcakes... regenerates by eating fruitcake counters or something like that.

I can get a picture this Friday.
One of my friends got one, it's game text is:
Fruitcake Elemental 3G
Creature - Elemental
Fruitcake Elemental is Indestructible.
At the end of your turn, Fruitcake Elemental does 7 damage to you. 3: Target player gains control of Fruitcake Elemental
Yeah it's pretty cool, it's got the foil label like the Prerelease cards, but it says Holidays 06.
we should get one at the trade forum, and keep mailing it around to the people. Makes for a godd laugh.

So someone saw one and another guy's friend has one, but there isn't one on eBay and no one here actually has one to scan and post... Is this thread a joke?
because tis a promo card (like arena was) and not an Un card, as it says it says Holidays 06 and makes no mention of being an UN card
They don't create new cards to make promos. Every tournament-legal promo has been a reprint of an already existing card. This card doesn't exist in any set to date, so it has to be from an Un-set or a silver bordered card of some other kind we don't know about yet.
Seriously... if ****ing Fruitcake Elemental is tournament legal, I don't know what I'll do.
edit: I have a feeling we're about to run into a colossally well done spoof.
Ah. Thanks for the correction, ferro_man. The first post claims it's an Un-card and no one has corrected that point since.
As for Annorax's point, they have done non-reprint promos before (Mana Crypt, Arena), but I'd be surprised if they were still doing it. I thought that was part of a bygone era. What's the expansion symbol?
While I'm not questioning the truthery of the card, I'm fascinated as to people's reactions to it being legal in T2 or being from an Un-set.
Is it really that impossible for WotC to create a fun holiday card that perhaps was shown at a certain FNM a bit early? This card is clearly not intended for legal play, so I'm surprised people would even suggest the possibility. It's a fun gimmicky card on fruitcakes. It's a quite simple concept really.....I'm surprised to see some people getting all fumed about it.

Don't you mean truthiness?
No way it's type 2 legal. Life//Death was a FNM card, doesn't make it std legal. Sounds funny. I might go to FNM just to get one. I suggest everyone else does too. Merry Everyone!

I'm about 60-40 believing the realness of this card. It seems like something WOTC'd do as a gift to its paying FNM customers (ala magic player rewards), and it doesn't take much to create a fun card like this (i'm sure it was a leftover from Unhinged, though, there's the slight chance it may be a 'futureprint' like those speculated in Future Sight).
My only concern is the lack of picture so far. There have been many 'sightings' of the promo, yet no one has been able to drum up some pixels resembling it (the original thread poster wasn't even that sure what it did... eating fruitcake counters?...).
I, for one, hope this is real, as I would love to throw fruitcake around like it's no one's business.

i didn't notice the original poster saying that it was an UN card...i thought everyone just assumed that it was one
anyway, i doubt that its a real card for one reason. Its a creature, but no one has posted power/toughness for it
Fruitcake Elemental 3G
Creature - Elemental
Fruitcake Elemental is Indestructible.

Yeah it's pretty cool, it's got the foil label like the Prerelease cards, but it says Holidays 06.
it's indestructable, so it can end up blocking a creature every turn and then exchange control of it once damage is on the stack
you could put two soul links on it and gain 7 life a turn
you can attack with it and giant growth it to deal damage and then give it to your opponent
and lets not forget circle of protection: green
Heya! I'm the guy Highspeed is talking about. I took a scan of my Fruitcake Elemental and attached it. I'm not sure it was sent out to just us Delegates, I know I got mine as a Brand of the Month award. I think it was given as a holiday gift to the Wizards employees and we delegates, being unpaid reps, got some extras as bonus. Well, here it is, in all its glory. The foiling messed with my scanners DPI a lil, but I hope you can enjoy anyway!

As for the legality of the card, I'm sorry to say it is not playable in anything but casual. While this card is NOT an Un card, the list of playable cards in Tournament magic specifically excludes cards with a silver border, which this sadly has. Unless it's supposed to be a white border... It's hard to tell when the whole damn card is foil. Either way, I am almost positive it's silver, and pending a ruling in favor of the opposite, in which case I'm sorry, but I'm playing the sucker.

I like the sound of that, just add it as a throw in and see how many people it ends up with, even have people sign the back of it or something.

Would this be the first time since the book promos that we've had a promo card that isn't available as a normal card? (ie, Arena pre-ts, Wombat, etc)
