This toy cardboard robot named Danbo was commissioned by Amazon Japan
from Azuma Kiyohiko, the creator of the manga character Yotsuba-chan who
lives with her adoptive work-at-home dad, and whose happy-go-lucky
adventures are recounted in the popular serial, Yotsubato/Yotsuba
If either the original or Amazon versions of Danbo were actually made of
cardboard instead of PVC vinyl, or were actually bigger than 13cm, I'd
be kind of pissed that Amazon won't ship these things outside of Japan.
But if I were a Yotsuba-loving dad, I'd just wait until Boxing Day and
make a kid-sized one the old-fashioned way.
