FREE TOYS!

Okay, so maybe it isn't entirely free, but...if you buy something on YESASIA right now, you can twist a virtual knob to get a free Japanese capsule toy.



My favs are Uchi no 3 Shimai and ISHInoMORI. So, don't miss out! So buy yourself an amazing nendoroid and get a cutie pie free toy. Life doesn't get much better than that...at least not life you can buy on the internet!

Cracker Jack Prizes

Remember when the prize inside a Cracker Jack box used to be amazing? I remember pulling that foil wrapped chewy brick out of the box and tearing in to find the prize...on occasion, the Cracker Jacks might have been fresh and not stuck together in one large mass, but usually the prize could easily be pried away from the gooey crunchy kernels.


I had little plastic trinkets, magic motion fun cards and other types of tiny treasures. Recently I opened a bag of Cracker Jacks, not even a box, and was momentarily delighted to find the prize. No longer is it a little paper envelope, but rather a perforated, little package, similar to past pay stubs or unemployment checks. Not cool. And here is what it was filled with....



Does anyone else want to start a petition to bring back cool Cracker Jack prizes?
