Here we have an excellent knock-off of the lightsaber. The amazing Air Sword. I love how the original Star Wars font is used to lure unsuspecting people to fork over their hard earned, or parents' hard earned, yen. I have a feeling this is another one of the machines where there are only a few of the super prizes in the machine and you are more likely to get the dog keychain.


And here is Hard Gay. For those not in the know, he is a professional wrestler commonly known as Razor Ramon. Hard Gay appears on television quite a bit on variety shows or in ads for Core 21, a pachinko chain. Many of his television appearances are available if you do a google search and are quite funny. Though after living in Japan for a year, he has grown a bit tiresome. So this gumball machine features a cell phone charm/strap that plays his famous catch phrase, "Fu!" Apparently it lights up too when you push the button. I tried to get one from a different gumball machine a couple weeks ago and ended up with something else. I was very disappointed, something worse than a dog keychain. I really need to post a picture of the dog keychain. It's sad.
