About Garuda the Wind Spirit

Garuda the Wind Spirit is an Effect Monster, printed as LON-E070 in Labyrinth of Nightmare (2003) as a Common. It is a Level 4 WIND Winged Beast monster with 1,600 ATK and 1,200 DEF.

Character and collecting appeal

Winged Beasts include the Harpie Ladies and many early flying monsters. Its text is about Special Summoning. It cannot be Normal Summoned, so it has to be brought out by its own conditions.

Version and identification

This guide covers the Unlimited printing, without the "1st Edition" text below the artwork. 1st Edition copies of the same card have their own, usually higher, prices. Check the code printed below the artwork on the right: it should read LON-E070. The E in LON-E070 marks the European English printing. The North American printing uses a code without the letter, sometimes with a different card number, and has its own prices. It is the Common version. Commons have a plain name and no foil. Labyrinth of Nightmare has 4 other printings of Garuda the Wind Spirit: LON-070 (€0.27), LON-070 1st Edition (€0.70), LON-E070 1st Edition (€1.98) and LON-EN070. Each has its own price, so match the code, edition and rarity exactly.

Price history

There are no recent sales of this printing of Garuda the Wind Spirit yet, so we cannot give it a value.

Investment potential

In its favour: it comes from the first years of the English game, which are no longer printed. Treat this as background, not a prediction or financial advice.

Before you buy

Ask the seller to show the code LON-E070, the missing "1st Edition" text and the Common finish clearly in the photos, as listing titles often mix up printings. Cards from 2003 often show white wear on the back edges and corners, so ask for photos of the back before you buy.
