Protection from Strip mine seems pretty specific.
If you animate it, it can't be blocked by other man-lands. (?) In all seriousness, it might actually be more relevant than on Horizon Drake.
Yeah - it's not just Strip Mine, there's also Ghost Quarter, Wasteland, Tectonic Edge, Dust Bowl, Encroaching Wastes...
It's a wonky but highly relevant ability for a nonbasic to possess.
Utterly changed ability: Previously returned lands to battlefield.
Was "Target creature gets +1/+1 and gains flying, first strike, vigilance, lifelink, and hexproof until end of turn." This seems more pleasingly anti-land destruction.
WUBRG for Restore, even if it's repeatable and doesn't cost cards, still seems excessive. Why not something similar but splashier, like Crucible of Worlds UEOT (maybe from all players' graveyards)? Maybe give an extra land drop as well, but then you should make the graveyard lands come in tapped probably.
Is playing them from the graveyard splashier? You can't do that during your opponent's turn. You're right that the cost seems excessive, though. Maybe it could return "up to two."
