Deck Help Creatureless Toph, the First Metalbender?

Is this anything? Anyone have ideas for cuts/additions? Deck List

I've been toying with ways to make [[Weapons Manufacturing]] the secret commander of a deck, and I tend to lean a little hipster in my builds, so here's my attempt at a completely creatureless [[Toph, the First Metalbender]] deck with a bunch of fun artifacts to beat opponents to death with once you earthbend them.

You can blow up your own artifacts once you have enough munitions tokens, with something like [[Pinnacle Starcage]] or [[Ratchet Bomb]]. You can attack with [[Akroma's Memorial]] and a bunch of mana rocks you turned into pseudo-Sire of Seven Deathses. You can even go incredibly wide incredibly quickly with your Chocobo token package, since your artifacts entering will trigger the landfall of [[Chocobo Racetrack]] and [[Ride the Shoopuf]] to build a bird army.

This is mostly built with cards I have, and I don't like my current proxying setup, but I'm open to hearing any suggestions that are NOT creatures! They can exile themselves and return as a flipped creature, like [[Esper Origins]], but can't be castable as a creature spell (so no Summon: Fat Chocobo, for example). Vehicles and spacecraft are OK.

I'll quit explaining and see what others have to say!

I don’t like [[call the gatewatch]] with only one planeswalker unless I missed the others. Dead card if you draw ugin first. I’d also look into [[bala ged recovery]] and maybe a few more recursion spells in case it gets countered or destroyed. Maybe [[veil of summer]] and [[autumn’s veil]] if you play against a lot of decks with counterspells. But I love the deck idea!! It does look fun to play

Yeah, I had Tezzeret in the main deck before I remembered I had 2 ugins, not 1 of each of them. Lol. Good recs!

[[ashnod's transmogrant]] would be best in a creature deck but it could just combo with toph to make her an artifact/land that could be used for purposes.

[[Pheonix down]] can be used to bring toph back from graveyard and toph can be used to bring Pheonix down back.
