 Yamazakura Maneki Neko ?
Japanese toy blogs make me wish I could read Japanese, but I can't. Am I correct in understanding that one can order this GID Yamazakura fortune cat directly from Yamazakura? I love its cubist/moderne vibe. Not sure if Yamazakura is willing to deal with international orders, though. Does anyone know?  From: http://yamazakura.mikosi.com/newpage1.html

 Re: Yamazakura Maneki Neko ?
He calls it the Manryou Neko. I'm not sure what the meaning is, though- or what it has to do with the unusual face design.
Y has told me in the past that he does not do int'l orders. That may have changed.

 Re: Yamazakura Maneki Neko ?
Lulubell had these a little while ago. I'm sure they'll continue to get the new color ways as they're released.

 Re: Yamazakura Maneki Neko ?
just got the metallic blue/green that i pre-ordered today... took awhile but it's definitely a fun little figure, glad i grabbed one. original listing said 6inch, new listing says 3... it's actually 4 here's the pic from lulu, since the colors aren't showing correctly in the ones i took... guess i needed that orangey background
