Wonder of wonders! Here's another miniature Japanese SWORD toy, the Morinaga deformed* ZERO X, appearing here for the first time with the kind permission of Japanese reader Hiko.
The toy appears to be a three-piece model that snaps together, complete with a section of landing strip. Looking at the Morinaga candy bar leaflet below [seen previously on the blog] it's possible to see the ZX landing strip in position. The small T shaped protruberance on Hiko's toy is a palm tree! The whole Tracy Island base is a plastic jigsaw. Cool or what! I wonder if the base and toys have been painted for the leaflet or where different colours available? Hiko's toy is as it came from the candy box and I must say that's the way I like it! What do you think?
*we've seen the 'normal' non-deformed Morinaga snap-together ZERO X previously on the blog.
Super ... but I want to know what the confectionary tastes like. Anyone want to post some to a poor Toad? (You can keep the toys, nice though they are).
ReplyDeleteThese are all bare plastic toys and need to be painted for the full effect. The candy tastes like putty, but then it IS years old! :-)
