Card Trivia

 The card's design seems to be based on Austroasiatic aboriginals. This is supported by the tribal tattoos and boomerang weapon.
The Elemental HERO monster designs may be influenced by American super heroes; the inspiration for Wildheart was most likely Ka-Zar of Marvel Fame or possibly Anthro or Kamandi of DC (the first and the last boys on earth respectively). Or possible Apache Chief from the DC Super Friends.
It could also be based on the pulp fiction character Conan the Barbarian.
In addition to Cyclone Boomerang, this monster has an anime-only support card known as Wild Half.
This card's effect, Level, and ATK are the same as Tenkabito Shien.
This monster and Elemental HERO Clayman are the only Elemental HERO monsters whose alternate artworks in the anime (while being used by the Supreme King) are not in the OCG or TCG.

Junk Collector: The effect of "Junk Collector" activated by removing from play a Normal Trap Card is treated as the effect of an Effect Monster.

Previously Official Rulings


This card is
unaffected by the effects of Trap Cards, but it still may be the target of Trap Cards. For example, you can activate "Two-Pronged Attack" and target your "Elemental Hero Wildheart", another of your monsters, and the opponent's monster. When "Two-Pronged Attack" resolves, the other 2 monsters will be destroyed. "Elemental Hero Wildheart" will remain on the field.

If you attack with "Elemental Hero Wildheart" and the opponent activates "Widespread Ruin", if "Elemental Hero Wildheart" is your monster with the highest ATK, no monster will be destroyed by the effect of "Widespread Ruin". If the opponent activates "Mirror Force", "Elemental Hero Wildheart" will not be destroyed, but all your other Attack Position monsters will be destroyed. If the opponent activates "Negate Attack", their attack will not be negated, and the Battle Phase will not end. If the opponent activates "Magic Cylinder", their attack will not be negated and no Effect Damage will be dealt.

You may activate "Torrential Tribute" when "Elemental Hero Wildheart" is Summoned, and when it resolves all monsters (except "Elemental Hero Wildheart") will be destroyed.

You can Special Summon "Elemental Hero Wildheart" with "Call of the Haunted". He will not be destroyed if "Call of the Haunted" is later removed from the field.

You can Special Summon "Elemental Hero Wildheart" with "Return from the Different Dimension" and it will not be removed from play during the End Phase.

If "Waboku" is activated, its effect is still applied to any damage calculation involving "Elemental Hero Wildheart". This is because "Waboku" is affecting the damage and is not affecting "Elemental Hero Wildheart".

For "Elemental Hero Wildheart" vs. "Skill Drain", whichever effect was active on the field first takes precedence. So if "Elemental Hero Wildheart" is on the field and "Skill Drain" is activated, his effect is not negated. But if "Skill Drain" is on the field and "Elemental Hero Wildheart" is Summoned, his effect is negated by "Skill Drain" as long as "Skill Drain" remains on the field.
