    Whoa - total flashback! One of my favorites as a kid. I don't even know what it is - but seeing it I now remember playing with that all the time.
    I'm assuming it's just some random toy?

    Anyone knows what they're supposed to be "holding"?

    A friend just told me they looked like luchadores. I guess they do eh? :)

    It is probably evident in the art if any of the lucky people with the accompanying books want comment. In my imagination I just assumed it a starfish, that they were holding on to like a prized toy (or buddy). But for some reason I was also thinking it was one of those ramen swirly fish cake things (sorry, don't know the name). I don't know if that is weird or not, or just a sign of how much I love ramen [and see it in everything].

    Oh, ahahaha, thanks Oli. Longtime non-mystery solved. :D I always just thought the design was random just to have a nice aesthetic, or maybe meant to invoke some type of shell theme as a long shot, but a naruto makes so much MORE sense. Incidentally, I never had the chance to see the Naruto whirlpools while in Kobe, but going to Awaji was one of the things I always regretted not being able to do.

    they're battling it out in outer space, so maybe it's a weapon or shield? a part of a broken hull? space naruto?

    I believe it's these. There is a page in the one book where it's holding a bowl or jug shaped container with a bunch of them in it and holding one with two of it's other tentacles while floating in the ocean with other sea creatures around.

    Just opened mine last night and feel the same. It's really a great toy and I never realized how bizarre the underside is. I'll try and snap a pic if anyone's interested.
