There's also the option of following Tokyo Times by full feed RSS, and now Twitter too.

Great little fellas, I got myself a couple of these last time I was in Japan.
Soooo, what exactly are they ?
Just characters I think Rob. There can’t be enough such characters it seems…
Genius!
Where did you spot them?
Outside a shop in Tachikawa adrian.
Another awesome way to fill-up the world with more useless plastic. ^^;;
