Official Rulings

• I have two Sensor Chief Garcia (WC 313) in play, with Garcia’s Blaster (WC 347) attached to one of them. Can I reap with the Garcia that has the Blaster, then attach the Blaster to the other Garcia so I can resolve the Blaster‘s steal 1 ability?
  No. When a card ability refers to its own title, that reference is only to itself and not to other copies of the card. This also applies to abilities that are gained from other cards. When Sensor Chief Garcia has Garcia’s Blaster attached to it, it is gaining an ability from the Blaster. Since that gained ability refers to ”Sensor Chief Garcia” it is self-referential text and only applies to itself, not to other copies of the card.
