«©NCSX» Psst. We have a secret. We've been selling single Zelda Twilight Princess gashapon toys for approximately US$50 each. One little toy. $50. Each. We'll be able to start the hedge fund once we sell a few more.
This wasn't by design either. From the recesses of the old warehouse which closed last month, we've found all sorts of old inventory. Even found some Metroid toys but those are spoken for already.
When the new Zelda Choco Egg toys from Furuta were announced, we knew that we'd be importing a bunch of them. The only problem is the little 11cm" figures are encased within thin chocolate egg shells. Chocolate has a shelf life of about 1 year. Our time horizon for toy storage is usually a decade so the chocolate will probably be rendered inert, tasteless, and possibly toxic when the year 2021 hits. A total of 11 standard Zelda figures are featured in the set along with a secret figure. Please note that the manufacturer is only selling this toy in factory cases of 10 toys so it's impossible to get the whole set by buying a case or possibly even two cases. Preorders for factory cases are welcome to ship in January 2011.
