reprinting Totally Lost is fitting now that FblThp is a card, he just needs to somehow get his planeswalker spark (post-bolas).
Calling it now, once Bolas is defeated one of the stolen sparks ends up in Fblthp due to its original host was a casualty. It's one of the few ways an artificial creature (such as a homunuculi) can end up with a spark.

Did anyone ever play this card in constructed from prior sets? I remember someone playing it against me once at M19 pre-release but that's about it.
Absolutely! But then, I've been a sucker for that effect ever since Temporal Spring. Whenever there's a critical mass of them in standard, I try to remake my "Simic Strangler" deck. Right now I'm having lots of fun making people miserable on Arena with Totally Lost, Run Aground, Expel From Orazca, and (not-quite-the-same, but useful supplements in the same vein) Blink of an Eye and River's Rebuke. Primal Amulet really makes it cook, and Pteramander and Incubation Druid are perfect win conditions. It may not even win an FNM, but it's a lot a fun, especially when you're in no danger of being punched in the face by your opponent.
This actually works well with the set's themes in limited, too. For example, as well as using it against your opponent's expensive cards per usual, you can target one of your own Planeswalkers that's being attacked to save it and then recast it next turn with full loyalty.
I guess it's part of some hard line policy to never reprint stuff that would bounce lands ever again. But at 5 CMC, you would think they could allow this card to bounce anything. Have they said something like Boomerang is too good for Standard?
Everything, including worn items, seems to turn to stone with Vraska's gorgon gaze. Given this statue's golden horn sheathes and eyes, I'd guess that this statue is, and has only ever been, a statue.

I admit that from past interactions the worn itens with small pieces of metal also becomes stone, but maybe the itens bolas has are too big to be affected by it.

Is that a statue of Bolas on Ravnica?
Also what the hell happened that week at the Juri Revue?

Sure looks like it.

Constructed would be tough, but its a great tempo card in limited.
Just makensure whatever you play it on doesnt have an ETB that will screw you.

Bolas is just narcissistic enough to bring along a massive statue of himself when invading a plane.

Bolas Statue = Library confirmed.
And he called Azor narcissistic, such irony, though Bolas has never been very good at introspection, at least not the retcon version.
Also, odd that Fblthp's own card looks nothing like him in others.

There are times that metal "becomes stone" and times it don't, as:
Vraska's Stoneglare
Vraska's Scorn
