A Waldo is a remote robotic manipulator. I know soulbond technically only works on creatures, but we can pretend it works in any permanent. I'm not sure if the copy ability works; does it need to have the ability while it's a copy in order to remain a copy?
This is just begging for an extremely narrow fetch card that can only find this card; just so it can be called "Where's Waldo?"
(And it pains me to type that, because his name is Wally, dammit)
Eh; stretching into another language has a certain je ne sais où.
It seems a natural enough stretching of soulbond; and making this become a creature is a neat sidestep around the whole "Ok, so I granted an artifact +1/+1. Wat?" problem. (Most keywords, lifelink, deathtouch, regenerate etc. have already been applied to artifacts, so those'd be fine.)
For the stretching, and for being a really really cheap Clone (with a drawback, but colourless!), probably ought to be rarer. And pricier.
