Thank god this is legendary. Could you imagine an opening hand with multiples of these? It would be ridiculous. Great for mana acceleration, and who doesn't like a free artifact?

Me: I draw my opening hand. HAHAHA!!! You lose! I play Mox Emerald, Mox Jet, Mox Pearl, Mox Ruby, Mox Sapphire, Mox Opal, and Black Lotus! I now can produce nine mana turn 1! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Awesome, another card I won't be able to afford. Ever.
Just because it has 'Mox' in the name.

I think this is the first time in a long time I've seen adding the Legendary type to a card actually help it. Otherwise, this card would be 1) terribly scaled down, probably costing or even , making it a slightly better Sphere of the Suns or 2) horribly bah-row-kin causing Wizards to ban it like Mental Misstep in nearly everything but Standard.
Seems to me more often than not Legendary has become more of a flavor thing than a tool for moderating cards (allowing more powerful ones). Would two Olivia Voldaren on the field really be THAT bad? Or what about Grimoire of the Dead? I will admit, though, it does make an interesting way to deal with hexproof thanks to Phantasmal Image.
@PlanesWalkerXander
I have to wholeheartedly disagree. Mythic (or Rarity, in general) should not equal power or playability. It should be based on the uniqueness of the card and it's abilities.... (see all)

@Chrome_Coyote . . hahahah dude when I saw that this was rated a 3.9 I was shocked! And I immediately checked the price online because I was hoping this card's price had dropped. I was sadly disappointed. BUT, I'm gonna pull one of those eventually!! Even if I spend $300 dollars on packs and I could have just got one online for 25 bucks. I just thought your comment was funny because I was thinking the exact same thing. This is my chance to own a MOX!! I mean a freakin MOX people! If you aren't clamoring to pick one of these up, you either are a bad A$$ that has older ones, or are just missing the whole concept of MTG! anyways, Magic kicks ***!
EDIT: I wrote the above on 10/28/10 at 6:51:10 PM on the dot. . . I was pretty excited for the fact that I had a possibility to pull an actual MOX! Well, last night I was at wal-mart getting a movie with my brother and decided to get one pack for him and one for me. As we were walking to the car I was telling him how I wanted a Mox so bad a...

Opened this in foil today in a fat pack. For a moment there I thought I found God.

Superb mana acceleration. The flavor and feel of this card are Mox worthy.
Whether you are playing old Mirrodin or new Mirrodin, this card will always have a home. Metalcraft should be achievable turn 1, and it is almost guaranteed turns 2 and 3.
Legendary status is necessary because this card would be insanely broken otherwise.

Free mana is free mana. Even if you run multiple, there are plenty of ways to utilize excess copies in an artifact abundant block (Mirrodin and Scar both). Free artifacts and artifact lands make this rather insane, not to mention going with other 0 cost mana artifacts.
