I recently saw that Wizards came out with an ultra rare card titled "Fruitcake Elemental". Here's the link for reference.

I realize if something is silver bordered that it shouldn't be playable. But that's only the front of the card, to my knowledge. If the back of the card is indistinguishable from an ordinary Magic card then it probably should be playable. What do you guys think? Let me know if this beastly monstrosity for a creature is a playable card.
Im fairly sure that they wouldent print a playable card and release it exclusively to a select number of people. So to answer your question no i believe it is not playable.

Too bad too, it's pretty interesting. I'd throw it in something.
Either way, that card is sweet!
From the abilities, to the power and toughness, to the donating ability, to the "flavor" (ah, another pun)!, to the art, that card is awesome.

All of the cards mentioned were far more available than Fruitcake Elemental is. Fruitcake Elemental were only given out to one person per area (larger than county, smaller than state). All the other could be had either by sending a book slip, or by purchasing a magazine, which anyone could do. The two groups aren't comparable.
Isn't it funny that the promo card for the announcement of a transsexual designer is a Fruitcake Elemental? That Mark Rosewater is one crazy guy…
Was the 1996 World Champion card ever legal to play?
Also, Splendid Genesis and Fraternal Exaltation, two promo cards dedicated to the birth of Richard Garfield's two sons are playable to my knowledge. But the fact that only 100 copies of each card were made and that both cards run around 3000-5000 bucks, nobody has gotten the balls (or funds) to get a playset of each card and play them in a tournament.
New game: let's limit the "tournament legal promo game" to cards released within the past decade.

Oh, right.
