surprising*
Dear Japan, please send me one of each.

Sincerely,
Squid Girl Fan
Awesome stuff from 2 very fun series.
Those r pretty cool ahahaha, still prefer the Super Soniko one though @_@..but geez so expensiveee....
Zippo did a ton of Sunrise lighters about a decade ago. I lost my Gundam MK-II one, but I think it was closer to 10,000 yen and I recall a few of them being even more expensive so these new two are on the cheaper side for official anime import Zippo. Dark Horse does some more affordable domestic Zippos that are I think about 30USD or less. I love the etched Blade of the Immmortal one they released since the gold image is engraved in the black metal frame.
I don't smoke, and don't buy much merch, but lighters with cartoon characters seems somewhat out of place. That being said, these photos of the Zippo look like mockups, especially the blue tentacle picture, not that that's bad. On another note, the first thing that came to mind after reading the snippet was, "Ak-kariiiiiin!", and that's what they have on the lighter!
I'm so glad I don't live in Japan sometimes.. I'm such a sucker for these kinds of things.
special series Zippos are always expensive, but if i would ever actually pay for one a squid girl zippo like that is the one id get
Omg I want. NOW
omg the 6 inch model is so awsome. and hehe id deff buy for 18 bucks man
seeing this led me to looking for Gundam zippos, which i found. and they are AWESOME! unfortunately just about all the good ones are sold out everwhere. if any1 knows where a good selection is (and arent sold out) let me know!
I just looked at what is around the net as well. I don't even see the MkII Zippo I have or the matching Zeta one, They have the sculpted image of the MS on a raised circle. Many of the current Zippos are very different from the selection available from 10 years ago. I remember almost buying a SPT Layzner Zippo at the time which is also nowhere to be found. So it looks like they are introducing new designs as old ones go out of stock.
I would so get the Akari lighter as a novelty, but damn that is pricey!
hmmm..... I don't smoke, don't need one, too expensive and yet it's still an awesome idea. I don't think they've done the "Isn't it a lighter?" episode of Ika Musume yet.
That is a lot of money for those lighters but I'd still buy them
