Photo - Calpis Peace Bottle

The notice in red notes that this is a "Peace Bottle" which was discussed here previously. There are four advantages touted for this bottle, one being that all the materials fall under the same plastic category, so there is not need to separate before disposal.

McDonald's Tamagochi Happy Set

To match the more boy targeted Kamen Rider set, McDonald's is also offering a Tamagochi set with collectable Tamagochi cards. I have thought the Tamagochi fad dead many times over, but it just keeps coming back. This time as a popular TV show. These cards don't look anything like the earliest Tamagochi characters I remember, Japanese anime characters and toys do have a knack for evolving to stay relevant.
