Scout
$4+
--regular awesome Scout effect--

When you buy this, you may overpay for it. For each $2 you overpaid, gain an Estate, putting it on top of your deck.

Now you can leave estates on top of your deck for your other scouts to pick up!

I currently imagine mail-mi wearing a dark trenchcoat and a bowler hat, hunched over a bit, toothpick in his mouth, holding a gun in his pocket.  One bead of sweat trickling down his nose.

Bomb, Cannon, and many of the Gunpowder cards can strongly effect gameplay, particularly in a destructive way

I just realized!  Pay $16 for it, and you'll get six Estates!  One of them won't be in your next hand, and you can get it with Scout!

And you have Scout with your five-Estate hand...

Woah. This is an obviously broken card when Scout and Haven are both on the board. Like, seriously.

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

Or Market Square, or Tunnel... but the combo with Transmute is cooler, since Transmute gains Duchies, and if you trash it with Transmute, you get both a Gold and a Duchy.

I don't think he'd get along all that well with Tunnel et al without some mutual friend to break the ice.  Unlike Hoard or Governor.
