After walking 2km to the nearest shop to buy some diet coke, I came across this package in the candy-section called “Little GO! Japs”.
Now, I’m not sure if these people know that “Jap” is considered by some to be a racist slur, but oh well.
It cost me about 15 SEK, the package is well designed, but the fact it’s in the candy-section might confuse children into thinking it’s something edible.
Produced in Spain, made in Italy.
What’s odd is that the “Exit-Toys”-website leads to a page with no information other than a logo for the company.
The “Little-japs”-website doesn’t exist at all.
This was in the package. I have to admit, I kinda like the one red toy to the left, and I’ll probably keep the guys around in my room somewhere.
The silver card has some stats for a guy I didn’t get with the package, and on the back there’s rules on how to play with your “Japs”.
I really have no idea why there’s stats for every figure though, they’re useless for when you play.
“Intelligence” is also spelt wrong.
The green card shows all figures available, it has more on the other side too.
In a total there seems to be 32 figures available.
How dull, if these guys had batteries they’d probably be a lot cooler, and I’m pretty sure they’ve confused China with Japan if they’re saying Japan’s air is polluted.
Though the backstory definitely isn’t true, it’s essentially saying that Japanese kids used to play with these kickass toys that had batteries, but everyone threw them away once they were re-designed without batteries.
You’ve payed for Japanese garbage. Now enjoy.
