Incubator tokens are the first real double-faced token cards.
The instruction to incubate include a number which indicates how many +1/+1 counters to put on the Incubator token. Those counters don't do much while the token has its front face up, but are necessary to keep the Phyrexian artifact creature alive once it transforms.
