Droopy and shiftless pretty much describe the most popular Japanese
toy/icon since Hello Kitty began her reign. Instead of walking or crawling
like a regular panda to get somewhere, Tarepanda rolls. Head over heels,
from side to side, round and round he goes. Being exceeding lackadaisical
has endeared Tarepanda to millions of Japanese who have bought billions of
yen worth of merchandise since 1995. Similar in size to the Kitty cushion
pictured above, this pillow measures 15 x 13 x 5" with a soft and
friendly feel. Tarepanda also vibrates softly, thanks to the battery
powered buzzer housed within, to ease frazzled nerves. If that doesn't
make the sale, it's sickeningly sweet and cute. Toothache, Tarepanda... |
