Ok.  this is a direct request from Sakura S. Asamiya.  The Gemini Elf.  I am going to give a perfectly honest opinion on the card.
 
When I was a complete newbie a few years ago, this was THE card.  The first card next to Blood Vors/Vorse Raider.  With a dominating 1900 attack points, it was legendary for toppling all the 1800 monsters forever.  Being secret rare, you can guess that this card was very beautiful when you first saw it in your booster...
 
Now, sadly, this card doesnt get the legendary status.  Blood Vors, with 1900 attack and 1200 defense, was released as a Kaiba structure release, and then as a promo in Kaiba Limited Edition 5.  Years later the Kaiba Structure 2 releases it as a common.  Much later, Demon Soldier/Archfiend Soldier, Mad Dog of Darkness, Volt Girl/Thunder Nyan Nyan, Sapphire Dragon/Luster Dragon #1, and many others were released as easy to find commons, rares, and super rares.  All with 1900, all level 4 (and some had bad effects, but many didn't)
 
There is almost no need to hunt for the secret rare Gemini Elf... despite the fact that its now Ultra Rare in IOC.
 
Japanese only had released it once, and only once: the legendary "Booster Chronicles" booster (now discontinued).
 
5/10- It was too rare for its own good and lost its footing as legend.  Now its just old... poor things
