Oh I dunno, this is just so weird it deserves a mention - you know those cool bandai capsule toy machines that we're beginning to see everywhere? Gashapon. Terrible in English, isn't it, sounds very painful. Anyway: miniature Japanese police set! Lots to collect:
You will get either a twin flashing light for the roof of a Police car, a Police box with a flashing light on top, a flashing night stick, a single flashing cop car light, a working siren (loud!), or a kit containing binoculars, mask, milk and obligatory Japanese doughnut!
Japanese cops need sleep masks?
Actually, I got the patrol light(not the twin bar) at the bottom from a machine here in Taipei. It's really cool and depressing at the same time - it's small and cute, but it's not a real turning light. It uses a really weak little LED bulb that just flashes on and off, temporarily crushing my dreams of making a quick Ape Escape hat.
I need to learn how to mod this thing now... it kind of reminded me of my own (normal, turning) siren light back in the states me and my friend would turn on whenever we scored a goal in FIFA 2002.
