- When Gyaku-Gire Panda is equipped with Rod of the Mind's Eye and attacks, the Battle Damage is 1000 points.
- Q: Is the increase of "Gyaku-Gire Panda" permanent or is it like "United We Stand?" A: The ATK increase is a continuous effect and will adjust as the number of monsters on your opponent's side of the field change.
- Q: If Gyaku-Gire Panda is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned and your opponent has 2 or more monsters on the field, can the opponent use "Trap Hole" or "Bottomless Trap Hole"? A: Yes, they can, because the ATK of Gyaku-Gire Panda is increased the moment it is successfully Summoned. Steve Okegawa, 02/03/04
