(i am not sure as to where i should put this--sorry if this isn't the most appropriate place for it. ^^)
i found this...interesting....little toy while waiting for my laundry to dry awhile ago:

i don't know what to make of this. on the one hand, cheap knockoff toys are stupid and lame, but at the same time, it's kinda nice to know that ninja gaiden is apparently popular enough to warrant cheap knockoff toys. eheh....
(there are more pictures at
my livejournal if anyone finds this as amusing as i did. ^^ )
