Card art shows locusts as being colorless creature tokens.  These do not properly trigger molten nursery on entry.

    Talk about a "bug"

    The Locust God text does not specify that they are colorless, it probably was overlooked. I have a feeling that "colorless" is an attribute that must be programmed in and isn't just an absence of a color.

    Neither are Thopters.. But it works. It's an ETB effect, so it should trigger

    Anyone tried to target locust tokens with Chandra's Defeat? I have a feeling they are red, blue or both (like in paper magic). At least if they are red, Chandra's Defeat will be able to target them.

    While not stated on the card, the locusts are probably supposed to be red & blue creatures. Their paper counterparts are, at least, and they tend to follow color identity of cards here.

    New observation.

    Locusts are colorless.  They DO trigger Drowner of Hope.
