Trinkets, eh? Haven't read the manga, but I'll take the merchandise. Depending on what they deliver $5-10 is a great price. If they're good, quality gashapon style figures I'll take them. Anyone, pray tell, know what this company is that they're using.

BTW, couldn't find the info on their site, anyone have a direct link?

Ah, that helped, thanks Liann. Looks like they're going to post some concept art for the merchandise soon.

Be it known that my wallet has cried out in pain just imagining how much I'll be spending.

And I think my credit card just tried to melt itself...

I find it strange that a small series such as this (not in length, but in popularity) is getting (and already has from what I've seen) so much merchandise. You think more prominent manga such as One Piece, or Naruto (I wish!) would get trinkets.
But, hey, that's just me.

But it is popular...

The whole concept of "Aquarian Age" was so popular that they made the spinoff "Juvenile Orion." I mean, the trinkets are just like the cherry on top to go with the card game, notebooks, and various other things.

In Japan both of them are overflowing with merchandise. I'm sure we'll see stuff coming from both over here soon enough. The merchandise licenses are usually give to whatever company has the anime rather than the manga. Since One Piece is now showing we should be seeing something soon (the Pre-Toy Fair show takes place in October). Naruto will take longer, I'm sure the merchandise license is being granted with the anime.
