The card from yesterday has been revealed in full, and he’s a god on vaykay.

SOFU-JP049 常夏のカミナリサマー Tokonatsu no Kaminari Summer (Kaminari Summer Vacation)
Link 2 LIGHT Thunder Link Effect Monster
ATK 1600
Links: Bottom Left, Bottom Right
Materials: 2 Thunder monsters
(1) Once during each of your opponent’s turns (Quick Effect): You can discard 1 card, then target 1 non-Link Thunder monster in your GY; Special Summon it to your zone this card points to.

Note: This card’s name is a play on カミナリサマ (Kaminari-sama), another name for one of the Kami of Thunder in Japan, Raijin, and the word サマー, which is naturally, Summer. Tokonatsu refers to the seemingly endless days of Summer (especially vacation in August) for Japanese folks.

So basically it’s Raijin/Kaminari-sama on Summer Vacation.

Also his pink flippers are because Tokonatsu is an old word used to refer to Pink, apparently.
