It's $105. Not bad, I wonder if they will ship to the US. With it being alcohol and all I am not sure on that.

The official site had a really sweet replica of the Cobra gun for sale a little while ago.

Not that I partake in the libation of alcoholic spirits, but the Cutey Honey and Mazinger Z containers sure look sweet. Cool

Some times I wonder what goes on in their minds. I mean seriously, a 'Cutey Honey' whiskey bottle? Now tell me there's another adaption coming out to honor this.

Only in Japan.

Why are you prudes rolling your eyes at this? Anime-themed liquor bottles are possibly the best merchandise concept I've seen in a while.

Zac, you got me to laughing at your comment. Especially if you're hanging out at the Death Star Lounge at this very moment. Wink

I guess if you're old enough to buy said bottles, it's just one more collectible for your shelves. Not to mention what the whiskey might taste like... Smile

(these comments coming from the guy with "sake" in his name...)

I wonder how many Otaku will be able to identify the series which the bottles pay homage to just by the contours of the torso. You'd have to be quite a dedicated fan to achieve such a feat.
I see ANN uses the Irish spelling of the beverage's name.

Zac: I'm still waiting for Lucas to give the OK to a Lando-themed Colt 45.
