Takara Tomy released this commercial of their new 5 megapixel xiao TIP-521 camera pooping out a picture. This constipated little guy weighs 294 grams, and comes with a Zink built-in printer, a 2.48-inch LCD monitor, and a 4x digital zoom. He also measures 149.5mm x 74.5mm x 25mm while his "poop" measures 2×3 inches. While he's furiously trying to take a dump, he tries to sell himself in a strained voice:
"Yup! I took the photo, and I'll burn it for you. But sometimes, don't you forget to do it for years and years? So print it right away!"
Maybe I've been here too long, but I really don't think it's weird at all. It cleverly combines Japan's two favorite elements--gadgets and poop. (by Emily Co)
I tried one in Yodobasi Camera in Shinjuku last week... It is big and too squared... not the kind of object you can take in a pocket or a girl in her purse... I prefer my Fuji instax mini instant camera :-)
