'Picture perfect, wouldn't you say? 

...or so it would seem...

The next day; 'near a totally different plastic bench, Robo-Bambi makes a shocking discovery!!!!

These 2 sets are a good representation of how Japanese Disney toys are significantly more FUN and quirky than most anything Disney-related you can find sold here in the states.  

In contrast to the above posted photos: THIS line-up; a parade of redundant "here I am" poses.... is horribly boring, generic, and uninspired... and it's (( most unfortunately )) an accurate representation of Mickey trinkets available in local shops.

Howie will be chiming in soon with his own examples....

Feel free to dispute this!  ...we encourage discussing such important topics.  Are there any well-designed Disney toys out there right now?  Show us!

Wow these are so freakin cute and appealing.

And I totally adore all of the extra trouble you are going through to add scenery and stories to each post as well as super-cool images of happy funtime palythingies.

Are you going to keep updating every day or so? cause I'll be sure to check it out all the time if thats the case.

WOOD!

Brianne> Oh wait 'till you see part 2! Whaa ha haaa!! YES! Please link us! :D That'd be awesome ^_^

Clarke> Well, i think there's gonna be 3-4 of us writing for it, so yeah, this will be updated very, very often! Once we get a bigger audience, we'll have week-long extravaganzas like "Godzilla Week" or "Dream Pets Week", etc, where it's 7 straight days of whatever we're talking about.

'Glad you guys like these gashapon toys! (( They are fairly easy to find on ebay, btw )) Japanese Disney toys are sooooo awesome!! They really have the design thing down.

This is, without a doubt, the most hard core action-packed site that I have ever seen in my life. The fact that you have captured such raw emotion on camera is amazing in itself.

VIOLENT.

I was going to say that I had a rather cool Kubrick Mickey Mouse but remembered that Kubrick were Japanese. Duh!

Do I have to go to Japan to buy a robot Bambi?! That's pretty cool in a completely bizarre way.
