I was going through old cards after Lorwyn rotated from Standard to see if there was anything playable that I should keep and found this little gem

I was wondering if this guy would be playable in a blue or green stax list and what everyone's opinion of him was.
Pros:
1. He's just about gg with a tanglewire
2. possibly a blowout with smokestack and a bounce spell (This might not be so true as your opponent will have few cards out as you will have your lock pieces in place if all is going well)
3. annoyingly large ass
4. Blue (Can also be a con if they have REB)
Cons:
1. Not an artifact
2. Gets hit by REB effects
3. God help you if he gets hit by a control magic effect when you have a tanglewire out
He probably has a few other cool interactions but this is what comes to mind as of now. Thoughts?
