What started as an April Fools' joke (remember: 9/10ths of all April idiot's jokes executed by companies are actually test marketing -- I'm looking at you,ThinkGeek) is becoming reality, and Japanese toy manufacturer Bandai is releasing a line of weaponized cat action figures. The Nekobusou ('Armored Cats') toys will range in price from 500 yen (~$4.50) for a basic figure, or up to 1388 yen (~$12.50) for one of the more elaborate ones. Of course they'll probably finish up costing like $60 here in the U.S. because some jerk bought them all and is reselling them on eBay at a ridiculous markup. "You were right! It looks like the seller GWsToychest has got them all." Wow,what an a$$gap. *shrug* I guess we'll just have to pay though.
preserve going for several more shots of all the fun to be had.
