Tasteful cell phone charms

sekaikurae.jpgTakara Toys has issued a new series of collectible figures with the shape of foods, each with a flag indicating their country of origin. Although they can be used as decorative straps for cellphones, these are actually intended for people who will keep buying until getting all of them, including the rare item, in this case the "hinomaru bento" (lunch box resembling the Japanese flag) at the bottom left. The series is called "Sekai wo kurae!", which means something like "Take the world!" and are sold at convenience stores for 200 yen each.
