This is the exact same card as Iron Star, except for the color white instead of red. Sometimes Wizards would do a whole cycle of artifacts, one for each color, but at other times they'd only do it for a couple of the colors. I think it all came down to the balance of the game. Did Color X "need" a lifegain artifact to help it out? Well, too bad, because that would make Color X too powerful. Ahhhh, those were the days when Wizards actually cared about the game as a game and not only as a money making machine.
Of course, I "might" be viewing things through my Glasses of Urza nostalgia ;-)
