Okay, very strange question here. If I have two artifacts, and play Rusted Relic, it enters the battlefield as an artifact, but becomes an artifact creature directly thereafter. Can it tap and attack on the first turn?

Potential 9-10th beater for aggressive workshop decks

Seems pretty good to me. Zk3 is right on.

Does this mean he's effectively a 5/5 with Haste if Metalcraft is in effect, or comes into effect on the turn he enters play?

Yes, he would become an illegal target and then he goes back to its original controller.

This card would be amazing if only Wizards would start making broken 0 and 1 cc artifact mana producers, or maybe some lands that double as artifacts. Until then, it sucks.

Wow, I think this guy is rated lower than he needs to be. By turn 4, you should always have at least 2 artifacts out in any self-respecting Metalcraft deck. So naturally, you're going to get a 5/5 for {4}, which as others have pointed out is a really good deal.
Also, I can see a bizarre sacrifice combo to deactivate Metalcraft in time to save him, or flickering your own creatures or something.

So once this guy is active as a creature he can be targeted with populate spells. Now if you manage to drop below three artifacts but have a token copy of him out what happens to the token? Does it transfer back into the original state aswell?

f you're running an artifact deck then this is a fairly good creature, even better than Chrome Steed in artifact. Otherwise it's basically just taking up space where a potential more useful card could be.
