It’s quite common to find plastic food on display everywhere. Ever felt like eating them even though they’re made of plastic? :D Here are some pictures of plastic food that look real and delicious! Yum yum.

Curry rice sticking to spoon looks so real. Now I want to have some curry rice too ><
Do you find plastic food for sales in your country? I remember seeing some fake bread for sale, but that’s about it!

Another toy in Japan that lets you record your voice and play it backwards! Cool idea of a gift for your friends don’t you think? ^^
Retail price is at 1,344 yen for this little toy, the Sakasa Master Japan. Check out the video below for the demonstration!
This toy can work as a messenger device. You can say what you want to your friend, and your friend has to write out what you’re actually saying!

Another gadget by Bandai, pairing up with FANCL to give you this product.
Partnering up with Japanese cosmetics company FANCL, Bandai’s Skin Expert is a tiny device which you apparently hold up to your face to receive detailed information on its ‘quality’ and health.
Retail price of the gadget is at 3,750 yen. Would you get this just for the sake of your appearance? Or spend the cash on something like.. figurines? LOL.

I know just how crazy vending machines are in Japan, we have R4 being sold in Japan, and vending machines allowing you to bill it via your veins.

Living in the bustling city of Singapore, we don’t have wildlife appearing on streets, on roads, etc. Occasionally we do get dogs barging out – that’s about it. Deers in Japan.. I like to see that myself ^^
The police tried to capture the deers that made their way into Sapporo, but they failed. Clearly the police shouldn’t be the ones to deal with deer catching o.O. They’re not qualified! LOL.

Another creative gadget that can only be found in Japan, a solar charger for your phone, in the design of HELLO KITTY!
Now this just needs to be released internationally for any type of phone :D.
Fancy a solar charger for your phone? It’s kinda cool because your electronic devices will just die off when you’re outside. And the solar energy is endless. All you need is the sun!

I have been reading up on the launch of Windows 7, and I seen a certain Live TV show in Japan, showing the demo of the Windows 7, only to have some glitch problems.

Apparently, at the recent Akihabara Windows 7 launch event, Microsoft Japan’s CEO Yasuyuki Higuchi was having some difficulty using the new Windows 7 with the touchpanel >_<.
I’m no computer expert, but apparently the touchpanel is giving the new …
