I like the flavour, it seems a good choice for a simple 1-drop.

Yeah, the set needs quite a number of very simple artifact creatures, and also Connectors like have several commons that can just tap for some effect.

add art

I changed the creature type because I thought this art looked a bit more like a policeman than just a generic Construct. Does this take away from the joke on Copper, though, to have a second Artifact Creature - Policeman? I can change it back if it's worth it.

You'd have to look at both cards at the same time for the joke to be diminished on 'Copper'. That's a rare occasion 'as fan'. I think you're fine here.

I think it's almost a positive to have two police artifacts, when the pun comes out a theme rather than just standing alone :) I wonder if "Copper" could be beefed up by becoming "something copper" or "copper something" that would still work as a pun, although I can't think of anything.

While Urbandiction.com won't help a lot with "X Copper", There's a plethora of things to look at with "Copper X". None of them are usefull, though. I can't believe half these sexual practices exist in any form except for in one twisted man's imagination.
