Each Time Spiral card was an homage to at least one previously printed card.
This card references the art work of Richard Thomas from several cards referencing torture. To avoid overly graphic artwork, Thomas substituted the stuffy doll which soon became one of Magic's first in-art in-jokes. The cards which feature Stuffy are The Rack, Black Vise, Cursed Rack, and Leshrac's Rite.

Stuffy Doll + Pygmy Giant + Crookshank Kobolds = 24 million damage to opponent.

"104.4b If the game somehow enters a "loop" of mandatory actions, repeating a sequence of events with no way to stop, the game is a draw. Loops that contain an optional action don't result in a draw."
Player dies = damage stops = loop ends. Argument over.

I absolutly hate having this thing used on me. It becomes such an uphill battle to win the game unless you can remove it right away which can be really tough if not impossible for some decks.

No matter whether you use Shivan Meteor, Pyroclam,Pariah/ Pariah's Shield, Valor Made Real/Entangler or something different, there's a big assortment of combos for this guy to ensure some fun in gameplay.

I have this card in one of my artifact decks. Every time I play it, someone cries.
Well, not really. But it wins the award for "Most Intimidating Card with the Least Intimidating Artwork".

Something about "{T}: Stuffy Doll deals 1 damage to itself" makes me laugh.

@ Redeemer707: You're forgetting that the doll does one damage to the other player after it's done one to itself, which triggers guilty conscience for two, which makes the doll do two to the other player, which triggers guilty conscience for two...
