For everyone arguing about the cost:
IT DEPENDS ON THE CONTEXT!!!!! A 4/4 artifact creature for 4 is at quite good! A 4/4 green for 4 is pretty bad and below the curve! A 4/4 blue for 4 is pretty good! Also, it depends on the context! In a Stronghold draft, this would me mighty good if it didn't have defender, kinda like Chimeric Mass! Plus, back then before power creep, this might have been alright (I wasn't playing back then, so I wouldn't know (: )! So before you start thinking outright that it sucks, THINK ABOUT CONTEXT!
P.S. Animate Wall. Rolling Stones. Protean Hulk/Disciple of the Vault combo. Storm. Anything that costs 0 or can be sacced easily has at least a bit of combo potential.

Utter simplicity meets unrivaled utility in a rather cool and innovative way. Not too many cards manage that
Come to think of it this is above the curve for black, red and blue creatures. They rarely get 1 for 1 mana to P/T beyond one drops, and I've definitely seen worse drawbacks on cards when they do.
Looking forward to maybe seeing this in a core set one day. Maybe M12 with all the Mirrodin counter hijinks stil in standard.

Shifting wall+lots of en-kor=combat completely dominated.
And to anyone that thinks this wall is bad, I would love to have you in my draft table because you apparently have no idea how to evaluate cards.

Come on, this was part of the Protean Hulk-Flash combo! This is a thoroughly Johnny card.

I put one in my artifact deck to combo with Sword of the Ages. With Urzatron/Workshop/Tolarian I can get this guy fairly large early then chuck him. Move a Cranial Plating over to him and BOOM!

@ kitsunewarlock
It turns out, before Shadowmoor, this was decent. All the power creep has gone to your head, and if a creature without abilities comes out as a 4/4 for anything more than 2, its terrible.
No, back in the day, as Zoah says, this was versatile, not to mention great for affinity and disciple of the vault decks.
